In Jerusalem, a young Tel Aviv woman decided to do a good deed and buy her mother a brand new mattress as a gift, but didn’t realized that there was $1 million in cash tucked away inside of the old mattress that she nonchalantly threw into the trash. The young woman woke up the following morning remembering a conversation where her mother told her that she had been hiding her entire life savings in the old mattress because of a terrible experience she had with a bank in the past. By the time the woman had realized her life altering mistake, the mattress had already been picked up and taken to the local dump. The woman searched through three different landfill to no avail, twenty-five hundred tons of garbage arrives to the dumps per day and the chance of finding the mattress is equivalent to a needle in a haystack.

Harken Strangers! So you’ve come here on this dark and stormy night to hear my dastardly little tale. Let me begin by saying, that no matter how shocking it may seem, every crimson ounce of it is true. I am an advocate of mischief and a creator of turmoil. I compose ghastly music based on eerie circumstance and delightful tragedy in the band Creature Feature and the band Rufus Rex. I direct strange films depicting ill-fated events and ghoulish irony. I am a writer of the macabre, as opposed to a revolver, I use a sharpened pencil to displace my brains. I gently squeeze the trigger and splatter the page with metaphor. Read, watch, and listen, you never know what wonderful terrible things you might unearth.

Hey like that episode on sponge bob.
Just the title alone made me laugh. What ever hobo finds that cash- I’m very jealous of him. Even if it is foreign money. xD
Aw, another sad story…who is to say even a hobo would find it?
Hope someone finds it at least.
Aww, happy hobos.
THAT’S WHY YOU DON’T HIDE MONEY IN A BED!

@Jamie Horror it’s not foreign money, it’s dollars.
Yeah, this was on the news a while ago June 10th, 2009
She spent 12 hours at the dump and I’m happy to say:
She actually got it a week later, an anonymous person sent them the mattress with most of the money in place.
