I once many years ago, when i was in my don't give a fak phaze of life, lost nearly 3 grand of cash. Must have fell out my pocket somewhere.
I backtracked for a while looking for it but gave in after an hour and went to the pub and got pished on a tab :17:

'kinell mate! I think I'd still be looking for it!!!
 
I did a job last year, £100, got home not in pocket, job was in Northolt, bit of a trek, back I went & it was still sitting by the gate an hour later

So lucky

No I put any notes straight in wallet rather then pocket

I always put notes in my pocket never carry my wallet too much to loose
 
I lost £600 cash advance payment on a boiler conversion in Croydon. It took me ewice as long to finish the job (as my heart wasn't in it anymore) and I never finished it to a high standard. Oh that sinking feeling. Why had he given me an envelope full of £50 notes, and he made me sign for it, so I couldn't be brave enough to ask him if he really did give me the money????
 
20(ish) years ago I was steward of a social club and used to get paid by cash weekly, one sunday night staggered home with my Mrs and my wage, £240 if I remember correctly - I remember the fact that I put it 'somewhere safe' but couldn't remember where. Months went by and still didn't find it, I really thought my Mrs had nicked it or something.
Anyway, we moved out a couple of years later and found it under the telly :)

And it was in old notes & worth a tenner!
 
I watched a women breakdown in tears once 3k in cash for a heating system I was doing went missing the same old put it in a safe place etc. but they were also ripping out the kitchen same weekend she was adamant head just launched down the tip, hubby went off to the tip to raid the bins and she sat sobbing.

I thought I know I'll make her a brew and calm her down low and behold there was an envelope in the tea bag tin with £3k in it!

I thought she was about to pull my trouseres down and burry her head in my groin when I walked in with a cup of tea and that envelope
