Unclaimed Property? I found $22

Go to www.insideedition.com and click on the link to Unclaimed Property.
This will bring up a map of the U.S.
Check out any and all states you have EVER lived in. I found a stock dividend check for $22 that I never received! And I found a ton of similar items for family members!

Check it out and let us know if you find anything!! (And no, this isn't a scam, it is through each state's treasury department - definitely legit.)

A few years ago I checked PA's Unclaimed Treasury~ and I had money in there under my old name! It was a paycheck from a job I had in college, but it didn't say how much. I had to fill out this 2 page form and send it to Harrisburg. It took about 2 months to get the money and it ended up being $30. Hey~ better than nothing though!! Nicki

Nicki, that is great! Yeah, mine is only for $22, but every little bit helps! :-)

Who else has looked?

Cool! I found $233 for my great aunt, and $8 for my uncle...

Unfortunately, neither one will claim it...great aunt is incapacitated in a nursing home (so even if her dependents claimed it, the home would get it), and my uncle just settled a million dollar lawsuit, so doesn't really need $8!!! lol

Buy, I wish I had found something...but I've always been very careful about making sure I get money that's due to me!

Anybody else with any luck?

I found my Uncle. I made some calls and found out it was money from a utility company he dealt with years ago. Unfortunately, he also just doesnt' want to deal with the paperwork to try and get the money. I can't imagine why, but it would do no good to argue with him.
