Found Money

Yeah, I kept it. I'm sure a great chorus of dwellars will step forward to smack me down for my rationalizations--but my first instinct was to give it back. However, after I thought about it for a bit, I determined that the true owner of the cash was the bank that operated the ATM, and if I had been at a bank I would probably have taken it in & given it to a teller. But this particular ATM was at a grocery store, and I just didn't think there was a very good chance that it'd make it back to the bank if I passed it on to one of the store employees.

Are you sure the bank didn't come back to your account later and take the money back? While you frantically searched and balanced your statments for months trying to figure out why you were off 20 bucks?
