Scored $40 in a park bench cushion, but the guilt is eating me alive
Found two twenties stuffed in a ripped cushion at Jefferson Park last Saturday. Part of me thinks someone hid it and forgot, but another part keeps wondering if some broke mom lost her grocery money. You ever find cash and feel worse about it than if you'd found nothing at all?

Jefferson Park's pretty popular with the food truck crowd on weekends, so there's a decent chance that cash fell out of someone's pocket while they were eating rather than being deliberately stashed.

Wait, $200? That's a lot of cash to just drop. Who carries that much in their pocket to a food truck park? Must be nice having that kind of pocket change to spare. Most people would notice that missing real quick. I can't imagine someone just shrugging off losing two hundred bucks. That's like a week's worth of groceries for me. Or three nice dinners out.

But like someone else said, if you're at a food truck park you might just have cash for the trucks that don't take cards. $200 is a lot but if you're grabbing dinner for a few people that adds up quick. Could've been from a business lunch or buying for a group.
