Great story there.

I was driving through a strip mall parking lot one morning and noticed a bulging bank envelope laying in the middle of the road. I got out and picked it up, and there was $1,500 cash and a tabulated receipt with a bar's name on the receipt. They weren't open when I found it, so I went back after work and found the owner sitting at the bar. I handed him the envelope and said, "I think you may be looking for this". He was literally shaking, and said that was a whole day's receipts that had been lost on the way to deposit.

He actually couldn't believe someone would return $1,500 of untraceable cash. He kept saying over and over again that he couldn't believe he got his money back. Still shaking, he tried to give me $100 bill for my honesty, and I declined, saying it was his money, and I didn't want any rewards.

Returning his money certainly made me feel better than buying something with $1500 that I didn't earn.
