To be safe, I'll post some chips that are probably past expiration.

Does this chip count? :D

I hope someone gets this reference. Anyone who has played WFW 3.11 classic gaming will remember it :)

Man this was hilarious.

I saw this thread and the paper clip icon for attachment and was like DAMN: My new MBP for FREE :D. Until I saw the first post. That was hilarious.

Well back to being the normal honest self that I am. I may be able to shortly though :D


You know this is kind of funny. 2 weeks ago, I went to my local ATM and the person ahead of me drove off. I went to go use the teller and it was not ready to be used yet. I looked at it and it asked if I needed more time!
I looked and the idiot forgot his debit card! Man, I could have had alot of fun with it if I was dishonest. I could have cleared out his account. But instead, i called the bank and told them this guy left it and they put a hold on it. I waited for the guy to come back but he never did. He must have been in a big hurry. I quickly went to the local office and gave them the card. I didn't even want it in my possession.
If I ever left my card in the machine, I hope someone else does the same thing for me. :D

Dang it why am I so honest? I could have had a macbook! ;)

I did that once. It's pretty easy to do... Kinda. :eek:

If you're making a deposit at an ATM, it doesn't give the card back automatically like when you're making any other transaction. Okay, maybe that's just for my crappy ATMs, but I've already lost one card (but no money) from this. :(

Good for you, savanahrose. You get the reward of knowing you are an honest person and a good citizen.

We found and returned a lost wallet 2 years ago. The lady who lost it was very grateful. Just recently, a family member had a lost wallet returned to him. The cash was gone, apparently taken by the first person who spotted it, but the rest was intact, and the second person returned it that way, worried that we'd blame him if there was anything missing.

A cashier in a college bookstore once tried to give me way too much change, and I stopped her. I thought she'd probably lose her job if her register came up that much short. Who wants that on their conscience?

Get a better bank mate!

Here, the card pops out, then the cash comes. Sometimes I forget that's how it works and wonder where the hell my money is. But then I always get a pleasant surprise.

I think that the legal issue of a 'free' MacBook would be outweighed by the lack of good wireless reception inside the Big House.:D

That happened to me once, but with an ATM. I only wanted a 20, but another came out at the same time. Since I wasn't too worried about the ATM losing it's job, I didn't try to stop it :p

I left my ATM card in a machine once. Crappy machine at that, it gave me the money and printed a receipt before asking if I wanted another transaction (while keeping the card inside).

The next person was nice enough to take the card out and leave it inside the bank with a teller for me. Phew.
