sneakily?

"husband. I found a fiver in your pocket and I'm having it"

"ok"

is how it normally goes in our house.

or
"I'm sure I had a tenner in my wallet."
"Yeah, you did. I nicked it."
"oh"

Any money I find becomes mine in this house.

WorraLiberty · 10/07/2012 16:46

Similar to Hecate except it's more....

"Husband, I found a fiver in your pocket and I spent it" Grin

Same as Hec here.

" I washed your jeans, I've left the screws on the windowsill"
" What about the £20 in my pocket?"
" Yes, I found that too. Thanks Grin "

All money I wash is automatically mine. Everyone else has been told, many times, that this is so.

GinPalace · 10/07/2012 16:50

YANBU to keep it but YABU to bother being sneaky about it. Grin

Surely it is laundry-doers perks?

Not to mention a good incentive for others to empty their own pockets before sticking stuff in the laundry basket?

SecretPlansAndCleverTricks · 10/07/2012 16:52

Um.... i'd give it back, because I have my own money.

mollymole · 10/07/2012 16:55

any money found whilst doing your household chores is your tip for doing the work

pjmama · 10/07/2012 16:56

Any money the washing machine spits out is the property of the finder... I am not a pocket checker!
