If this happened to me, nobody is hearing about it, there’s not gonna be a single news story about it. I didn’t find a goddamn thing.

Never pay for gas or groceries ever again

The couple said they contacted the New York police department about the find and said they were told there was no crime attached to the cash and there was no way to identify the original owner of the safe, meaning they were allowed to keep it.

It worked out for them at least.
