Heard a lady say she never checks furniture cushions and now I do
Was at a neighborhood yard sale last Saturday and overheard one woman tell her friend she never bothers looking under couch cushions. I used to do the same thing until I bought a beat up recliner for $5 and later found $37 in coins and a gold earring stuffed down in the crack. Now I always flip them over and check every pocket and seam before I buy. Has anyone else found cash or jewelry hidden in old furniture?

Exactly, @graceprice missing out on the real treasure hunt here. Found a vintage watch once.

@graceprice I used to feel the same but a $5 couch with $200 in it changed my mind fast.

Oh man, is this really a thing people get that worried about? I mean sure, finding a few bucks is cool and all, but I've bought plenty of used furniture without turning it into a forensic investigation. Never found anything worth more than a couple of stale crackers.
