Since moving to our new home, I have not had the time to unpack and sort out the wanted from the unwanted things. Last night as I was doing this long overdue task I came across this bag of bills and receipts I have collected for almost 5 years. Oh gosh the dust was also 5 years thick. I placed the bag outside, ready to be thrown away.
My husband being a sentimental, was apprehensive about throwing them outright without checking. He was thinking there might be some books or whatever things that we could still use or has a sentimental value. So this morning, I went through all the receipts and envelops. To my surprise, guess what I found?
And ……..
And another……
Oh my gosh …what a blessing…what a surprise!
4, 000Thb  ( US $121.15)
I’m glad I listened to my husband ^_^

That is such a pleasant surprise! You almost threw away a lot of money!
Cool! I hope to find money on the envelopes here in my room, i guess i should start checking them..haha
Wow! Lucky you! I get so happy too when I find money from bags i haven’t used in a while. We have a bunch of receipts waiting for be shredded. I’m so uncomfortable having my name and address out there on bills, esp. statement of accounts.
Wow! Good for you. 🙂 I wish I could find money in unexpected places too. That hardly ever happens to me. Haha!
It’s awesome when you find wonderful things in things ready to be thrown away 🙂 lucky you!
It is a good thing. You might have made some basurero truly happy though.
It’s really nice that you have listened more to your hubby, right? 😀 Great for you! You’ll never know what you will stumbled on those papers – checking them again won’t harm anyway haha! 🙂
I used to throw my receipts and bills. Your story make me read all your post and I am happy for you about this kind of blessing. This is one of thousand ways God send blessings to us!
Thank you for dropping by Frank. Yup, it is indeed a blessing. This kind of blessing is certainly welcome everyday, if only it’s possible.
OMG! You’ve saved without actually knowing it. Good thing you listened to hubby!! 😀
Right! I probably tried to save, and literally forgot about it.
It seems that you found treasures! 🙂
That’s right. It certainly felt that way.
Yes, it certainly felt that way.
Never happened to me before, but that surely brightened up your day.
I’d take it as a literal expression of “may pera sa basura” :))
Yup, I even thought of giving the post a title along that line.
Nice surprise. Get something for yourself, you deserve it for the effort 🙂
Wow! What a surprise! I wish when I clean my room, I could find gold & money, too! (^_^)

Oh gosh, don’t we all do? Lol.
Finding Thb 4,000 is really a nice surprise. i should clean my room too.
Hahahahah aha..thank you for dropping by
What a surprise indeed! I love finding money in unexpected places. That’s why I don’t throw things out right away. 🙂
That happens to me a lot! Some of the more memorable ones were when I found a Php100 bill in the pocket of an old school bag 5 years after I graduated, and that time I saw a 7-year old letter from my best friend in an old pile of papers I had clipped together and put in a drawer. It’s fun discovering little treasures like those every once in a while 🙂
that’s the kind of surprise that will make anyone smile.. As much as I can i try to follow what my husband tells me to do. I just refrain from telling him Honey you were right because the next words will be see I told you so
I love finding surprises like that.
Good surprises are definitely welcome.
That’s the best kind of surprise. What are you planning to do with the money? I would recommend you surprise your husband with a treat for you both. That way it becomes a double surprise. 😀
That is a very good suggestion. But we both agreed to buy an underwater camera.
i think the most i ever found was $10 in one of my wallets…. 😀
Wow! Lucky you. I have the same clutter like yours. I have plastic bags of envelopes here, how I wish there’s a peso bill left behind too. 😀
Wow…good thing that you listened to your husband. Good for you when you saw money on your bills.
Cool! Hahaha. I hope I can find something like that on my things but I don’t think I have. Haha..
You’ll never know. Sometimes we put things anywhere and forget about them.
You know what, my boyfriend’s house is full of gems like this. I want to do a haul from his stuff and who knows, I might have the same surprise as you got! 🙂
That’s one of the reasons why I inspect stuff before throwing them! Hahaha!!! =D
Wow, you should really thank your husband for that 🙂 . Next time, i will also check before I throw away papers and envelopes and maybe I could also find a surprise (Hoping :-))
Yup. That would be good because sometimes we just insert things, and forget about them.
WOW WOW WOW!! That’s crazy, it’s a good think you did listen and didn’t pitch all of that!
Yup I know. It would have been really a waste.
Awesome! He should get lots of praise for that 🙂
When I do spring cleaning, I check every everything before throwing it to the trash bin. Who knows, there might be things waiting to be discovered.
Wow! This is great news! I also love finding money. Just recently, I cleaned my closet and found P100 somewhere. Money is money no matter the amount so I’m thankful for that 😀
of course. Thanks
Yes! I love finding money! It doesn’t happen to me very often though, but when I do, it feels like Christmas, hahah!
hahahahah Christmas indeed. thanks
