I was in the garage looking for a new bag to replace my backpack that I’d been using for years. I put some coins into the secondhand bag vending machine until 5 or so popped out from the bottom. I set the bags on the table on the other side of the room and started rummaging through them. I took a liking to a dark green canvas messenger bag and was surprised to find stacks of cash in a ziploc bag inside.
