How much have you ever come across on the street? The most I've ever found was a 5 pound note and the odd pound laying around. Obviously I look around to see if anyone could have dropped it in the last few seconds
 
Most I've ever found is £1, me and my friend saw it at the same time, I got there first.

I've found a tenner too in the exact same circumstances, but my friend got that one first.

haha :D
 
I've found what must have been over £500 in a brown envelope. I handed that one in though.

I've found £20's, £10's and £5's singly, and kept them however.
 
£80

I've found over £100 in the streets since moving to Edinburgh just under 2 years ago.
 
Went round Rockness last weekend with my little cousin. Was pointing out all the money i saw to him and he ended up with £9.70 (mostly single pound coins)
:D
 
£50, £20 both times in the same place - My front door is next to a cash machine though, so I guess my chances of finding cash people have dropped is greater than average. Both times I did look to see if I could see anyone who could have dropped it but there was nobody to be seen.
 
my mum has the nickname 'bloodhound' for her ability to come across lost items
when i was young sat on some uk sandy beach, she dug a small hole next to the picnic rug, found a wallet and car keys - handed them in and got £50 reward.
she found a ladies gold watch by the side of the road on the way into town (by the registry office) turns out it had been a brides wedding present from the groom, again after she handed it in and the groom came round with a huge bunch of flowers and a box of chocolates!
she finds money just sat in the road, she wins loads of competitions, and always finds bargain holidays / clothes etc

i haven't inherited her eagle eye - but last night i did find £3.80 down the back of the sofa - win!
 
I've found a £20 note in a car park.
£10 note in the road while walking to school, bought myself a multimedia card for my Nokia N-Gage.
Not sure if I've found a £5 note before.
Few £1 coins here and there and 1000 pesetas in a swimming pool in Spain which is around £5 I think.
 
iv got a mate who has stupidly good eyes, he made his gf pull over on an A road in countryside because at 70mph he'd spotted a note flapping in a bush.. £20..
He finds them quite regulaly.
My ex and her mate found £20 the same night for 3 weeks in a row when on the lash :(

Iv not been so lucky, £10-£20 here and there.
 
It wasn't exactly on the floor, but I found £1.90 in a the bottom part of a phonebox.

I wasn't even using the phone either I just figured I'd check to see if there was anything there.
 
I have a tendancy to find money all the time, one occassion last year was really weird! Last academic year I left my block to go circuit training and found £10 outside on the grass. I came back 1 1/2 hours later and found a tenner in exactly the same bit of grass (deffo was not there when i found the first one). Before i picked up the second one, I had a look around - half expecting someone to be hiding around the corner with a really long piece of thread but there werent :o
