- A lost wallet or a purse can be a hassle, but these people were delighted to be reunited with their belongings after decades. A little boy caught a purse with his fishing rod and it turned out to belong to a family friend who lost it 25 years prior. A California woman lost her wallet in a movie theater and got it back 46 years later when the building was undergoing renovations. Inside Edition Digital’s Mara Montalbano has more.
The theater giving the $1,000.00 check was a great gesture.
Maybe because someone stole her check, and is probably an employee, so that it's the theaters fault for "stealing" her money?
Idk I'm just being a know it all.
Btw it is nice of them to give the money back to her.
$200 from 1975 is worth $1,000 in todays money
@@lionnelskyfn8295 U.S dollar lost alot of value smh
@A H it's called inflation learn the difference
@M1SANDR1ST93 You reckon 🤔 What a thing to do when someone has handed you're wallet back after 30 years and you say ohh by the way there was a $200 check in there. I think she's lying or it was $200 cash and the cinema didn't want drama about an employee stealing.
That’s so cool, imagine getting back the wallet you lost 10 years ago
Or 50 years ago 🤷🏻♂️
Ya om ikr papi chulo

If it took 46 years to find that wallet, imagine when the last time they cleaned the seats were.
lol
Ok
They clean it after the movies have been watched
@@lionnelskyfn8295 you really think they clean every single seat after every movie? No way, yea they do clean the floors but I dunno about the seats lol
@@garettaski they clean them at closing time.
I would absolutely treasure my moms lost wallet if it was returned especially if she had already passed. The luck and sheer joy they must have felt to have that piece of their mom. ❤️
🙏
"have that piece of their mom" honestly sounds a bit wrong.
Its so sweet that her kids got to see a snapshot back into her life and her memory. She was surely watching over them smiling along with them too.
Okay but the love letter was so cute. He seemed like such a sweet man 😭
She had her options. Go girl!
She had all three boys trying to ask her to prom, just look at how cute she is, I'm not surprised 😭
poor dude
Nice guys finish last. 😂 i bet the boy didn’t asked her at all
My dad lost his high school ring in during a college party in university of North Texas. It was lost until 16 years later when a guy messaged him on Facebook saying he found it in a shack in the middle of Oklahoma
That is crazy lol.
Would you happen to know where at in Oklahoma?
@@cody7068 not too sure. I need to ask him where. It was about 100ish miles from where he left it. It makes me wonder the story of how it got to that place
But like how did he know it was your dads
@@ERC_7 it had his name engraved on it
You lose and find something in Antarctica?! That man is blessed!
A couple years ago I lost my wallet at a Georgia Walmart. It had my credit cards, driver’s license, cash, and resident card. I was devastated because I had just replaced both my ids and now I had to spend money and time to do it all over again. Luckily about a week later somebody had put my wallet in the mailbox. It was inside a white envelope that read “Obama” but it was scribbled almost like kids handwriting. The cash was gone but everything else was in there. Thank you to whoever returned it!
sucks that the cash was gone
@@hanniebananieee yea true, but I accepted it and shrugged it off as a reward. They saved me headaches of dealing with dmv and custom services.
i had a similar situation happen to me. all my graduation money was taken but everything else was still in there. i was glad they returned everything else though
They prolly thought you wouldnt notice the missing cash 😂
It's very possible that someone took the cash, and someone else took the time to get your wallet back to you.
I lost my wallet at a store and it had all of rent money, my ID, and debit cards. The person who stole it took my money & cards & then crumpled up my ID and threw it out at the AT&T store. I am blessed enough to have a very kind & understanding landlord & thankfully, someone found my ID & returned it to me. Never caught the jerk who made off with $900 and my cards but thankfully my bank refused the $1,000 transaction they tried at the AT&T store & I was able to get those cards cancelled.
I wish someone like these people would've found it, though.
That’s good that your bank blocked the money transaction. When my dept card was stolen from a Burger King employee, all my bank did was notify me. The thieve took $700 & my bank refused to refund my money. The Burger King I was at have had problems with employee thieves, I don’t get how they’re still in business
I'm 33 now but when I was about 16 I was just following along with my friends and we went to hooters, I lost my camo velcro wallet and I couldn't get over it because I never lose things like that. Ironically that hooters is in the same spot and I deliver beer there now, this clip gave me an idea that next time I go I'll jokingly ask if they have a lost an found. That would be so cool to find again. I've returned wallets/id's to people so it would have been nice for someone to do that for me
@Misandra 13 haters going to hate
@@WilliamL1988 ...and players gonna play! 🤣
@@WilliamL1988 but no, seriously, one of the girls probably found it, searched for cash, and then tossed it out. 😂😭
It's rather nice to hear about good outcomes rather than what's been going on in the world,
Thank you to everyone who was kind enough to return other people's belongings!
Crazy. I’ve always wondered what happened to my lost wallets/items over the years.
Sorry the return policy says you have to wait for a few decades 😄
My wallet was stolen years ago… one day a man called me and said is this molley? I said yes … he said ummm this is gonna sound weird but I was down by the Susquehanna river and saw something down in the water and pulled it out and it was a wallet. He said I knew you would want it back since your drivers license and boating license were inside. I went and met him and couldn’t believe it. My boating license will forever have some scratches on it from the Susquehanna river.
The martini story brought a smile to my face. Glad this gentleman got it back, than you for your service, sir.
That’s so cool getting to see a moment in time
Wow just like a time capsule you bury and then open up 25-50 years later. What a nice surprise to these people so late in their life.
Marty broke that young man’s heart
Years ago I worked for a furnace and duct cleaning company. 2 jobs stand out.
1) cleaning a young couples older home, inside a cold air duct I found a shoe box. Inside were wedding rings, a man’s watch, cufflinks, other jewelry and some documents. When I called the homeowner to come see what I’d pulled out of the duct, she got very excited and called her husband. He raced home to inspect the box. One of the documents was HIS birth certificate!
(Turns out he inherited the house from his parents. His dad passed but mom remained in the home. Mom had dementia and eventually passed too. The siblings had searched for certain items like the wedding rings and the various documents, but had no luck.) (The mom had passed 8yrs prior)
2) again doing duct cleaning for the daughter of an older gentleman that still lived in his home. I had to ask the daughter to come downstairs. On top of the ducting was STACKS of money! In fact the weight of the money (paper currency & mason jars of coins) was causing the ducting to sag.
A week after the daughter called me. I’d asked her to satisfy my curiosity of how much. $34k+! But apparently 2 jars I hadn’t noticed were full of gold coins, those weren’t yet valued.
(That gentleman was also going a bit senile.)
*and no, I had no interest in stuffing anything in my pockets. It wasn’t mine.
So a heads up to families with older parents. Go visit them more! Help out and prevent your family ‘valuables’ from being lost.
Its like a blast from the past !
As a vintage makeup collecter, I smiled everytime I saw a vintage cosmetic. Ha
I actually felt bad for the boy that asked her out to prom 😭
Nice guys finished last
You snooze you lose
The fact that 45 years ago $1,000 was only $200
???
I swear people in the earlier years have really nice handwriting. That's how my grandfather write!
I lost my wallet 3 times, once in Japan, twice in the US. Of course, I got my wallet back in Japan with all my money inside. of course, I lost all the wallets in the US.
Of course it's the us. Honestly no surprise there
Hopefully 40 years later, you will find those wallets too.
see u in 40years later
@@andromedamessier3176 I hope it's sooner
@@teehee5700 can we please stop romantizing countries
I really wish this would happen to me I wish whoever came across my heirlooms could give them back that would be awesome
Sounds like the purse in the movie theater was stolen and then hidden afterwards
The Paul 91 year old is really healthy for his age!
He has had and awesome life and hopefully it is still awesome!
I need more of these stories!!!
The theater story is so cool! Bless that theater owners heart! What a sweet heart!
This makes me remember my grandma who is 99 and still alive
God bless al the old people they always have a good story to tell I miss my grandma
I love how the first thing I noticed at 1:30 was the cat above the sign
Lol didn't even see that! 😭😭
You know well that Martha got all the boys back in the day!
I lost a wallet once then I never bought one ever again 🤣
That is so cool I'm losing your items in decades later finding it🤔
the ventura place is so amazing, i went to a front bottoms concert its fr majestic
I found a wallet as a youth with $500 in it. I returned it and the guy said keep the cash. He wanted the wallet back because his only favorite picture of his deceased wife was in it. Super cool but my parents walked me down his house and made me return the money. I ended up with a $20 bill.
This is like a time travel thing.
Marty was a sight for sure eyes to them boys huh haha
Almost made me cry
This makes me want to throw my own belongings somewhere and wait a couple years for someone to return it to me.
Am I the only one who doesn’t actually carry photos in my wallet or purse?
My mom returned a girl's purse with her ID, cards, makeup and even some defense tools but no money, I found the purse, my cousin helped searching it however we were kids so my mom returned it by hand to the girl, who was beyond thankful for her documents to be back and she actually said that she was rubbed by sole guys in motorcycle in bright day light!
I lost my wallet, high school diploma and basic training yearbook around 2009 in Aberdeen Maryland baracks building. My name is Chaston.
Take your last name and middle initial down. You'd have an identity thief taking your name.
Someone flipped my house upside down when I went to work one day back in 2011 I believe. They tried their hardest to make it look as if nobody lived there. I contacted the police and the only thing that saved me is my mail and I had just made coffee that morning. Needless to say the cops made them give me a key and I ended up having to take them to court. I lost all of my memories among other things. Memories can’t be replaced though. These were pictures of my grandma who passed before that. All of my childhood pictures. All of my pregnancy pictures and others. I never got those back. It bothered me for a very long time and still does when I remember it. I don’t wish bad on anyone because I think that will turn into your own reality. You gotta wish evil people the best, their karma will come. This person ended up passing from covid right after we all found out about it and spent his very last days in the hospital without anyone. Be careful how you treat others
Karma got to him. I guess cause he took most of your life memories.
Crazy story . Just curious what did the coffee have to do with the story I didnt understand
@@cap5856 agreed i’m confused too.
@@sydneythompson3337 it means the house was robbed. Whoever did it made the place look like it was flipped upside down
Do you know personally the guy who robbed you and what does it mean that the only thing that saved you is your mail and your coffee?
Awesome!!
OMG the sears card in the purse.
What wonderful pictures in the red wallet. And man, $5 to see the Grateful Dead! SCORE
That is so amazing. Time has each seasons for things to be found. Such inspiring stories😍🥰☺😌
this video both has me happy and sad at the same time
The timing of this video couldn't be more ironic, as I just lost my wallet 2 days ago and it was shipped back to my house yoday
You ain't gotta fish you got treasure 😅 😉 that's priceless
it’s hilarious that all the old people hold that stuff up close to camera.
I did the same but the owner suspected me as a thief ... LoL 😂
That old lady at the end was a playa playa. I never had any guy ask me to prom.
That was a big hole in that ladies purse for that wallet to fall through.!!!
THAT STORY WAS SOOO! GOOD!❤💯
GOD BLESS❤💯
"y'aint gotta fish y'got treasure" lol
Wonderful memories
Great episode!
Amazing!
The movie theatre one was so wholesome🥹
Everyone will get old someday
become a bio scientist and create anti aging injection or become a scientist/engineer and design and build a sleeping capsule.
_That's_ what you took away from this? 🤦
Not everyone
That is so so crazy that all those were found
About 10 years ago I had a real jerk of a boyfriend. He threw my purse off the bridge down town where I live. It had money and car keys inside of it. I always wonder if someday someone might find it. And get a hold of me.
So nice!!
Wow!
I prefers 🍸 martinis myself. But 21 beers went unclaimed!
Marty had it going on back then. She had many boys after her!
That wallet in the movie theater was put there by a dishonest employee.
Always hoped photos lost in storage might be miraculously returned.
Wow, I feel like it would be way cooler getting your wallet years later than a few weeks later lol
Would love to find something like these for my clothing collections. what a great addition to an outfit.
Awesome good news video!!
Mine was stolen from the bathroom at the mall. You can keep the almost $4000 but can you just give the rest back 😭
Awesome!
Beautiful pictures
It would have been crazy if there was still money in there wallets and bags
Amazing how much stuff people used to keep in their pocket or purse. All I’ve got is my phone, wallet and a few gum rappers lol
What happened to the guy in the last scene though? 😭
This is sweet and happy. I love cute stories ❤
Never forget going to scout camp and having a fellow scout briefly steal my wallet. They eventually chucked it under the cabin I was staying in, but emptied it of all the money I had. Never really liked boy scouts much after that, as that was the tip of the iceberg of the abuse I would go through.
My gosh they have so much in there purses/wallets etc
Her Greatful Dead concert ticket was dated May 20,1973 which is my second birthday. 😂
Very cool❤️
In the far future, we may be reunited with our lost digital cryptocurrency accounts in the hypernet someday
Wow time flies.
Imagine when Marty found that purse all these years later, the guy that asked her to prom was reminded of being friendzoned again. 😆 Shame man.
Whe must also got so nice and Truesful People hier in Namibia!
My wish is some of Namibians see also this Vidio from You!❤
WOW !
Means a lot to people
And it only took 45 years
If i lost my wallet they would know my luckycharm
I wanna know who took the check
I wonder if my iphone first gen will ever be found. 😂
5:25 that's one beautiful writing even for today high school standards. Too bad cursive writing is being abolished from school.
I couldn’t believe when I heard this!
@@Karen.Melissa same here, I'm in my mid 20's and i remember my 3rd grade teacher assigned us to write our names in cursive more than 50 times. Some kids were pretty good at it, while others like me got better with time.
I’m 12 and have been to two different schools not including my Pre-K school and we still get taught cursive.
Yeah it's very unfortunate since that's the only way to verify your identity w/ a signature
it's pointless. how often do you use cursive over normal handwriting?
My grandfather told me a story about the beer vouchers during WWII I'll never forget, he had never drank any kind of alcohol or smoked a cigarette or no kind of drug ever, I don't think even cussed and he saved every penny he could. He was in a bar with all his buddy's watching them drinking and smoking having a great time but he was bored and home sick so he thought I have a voucher maybe if I drink a beer I'll feel better and it will cheer me up and it wont cost me anything so he gets him a beer and one of his buddies talked him into smoking a non filter cigarette, he said the next thing he knows is he woke up and looked up at a big MP in his face and he's laying in a big pile of puke, needless to say he never drank or smoked again, lol
Soooo freaking cute!
(2:41) "The below 90° temperature" in Antarctica... Who would've thunk it?! 🙄
I went to South Carolina once.
