Hey Guys, I just went to the bank cashed my 2 checks and took out $40. I arrive home and have $60 in my wallet. So I check my online account and it says the correct amount was deposited so it wasn't my $20. With no conscience involved should I a.) spend it on a fatter sack, or b.) spend the $40 i should have gotten, hold onto the $20 just incase they do catch up? I need answeres quick cuz my guy is gonna call me back soon!!! I really hope i did get the extra $20.:rasta: :)

they'll figure it out. I'd deposit it back unless you're not worried about NSF fees and shit.

If the extra $20 came from an ATM withdrawal, then it's likely they'll never pursue recovering the money for various reasons; it's more of a hassle for many banks to do all the paperwork required to correct an erroneous ATM transaction for so little money.
If the extra funds came from a withdrawal you did in person, you should consider going back to the bank and inquiring if the bank teller that assisted you was $20 short that day. ... if they don't give an answer or say "no", then just forget about it and consider it a bonus for banking there.
Another possibility to consider is that the extra $20 isn't really extra, but perhaps money you already had in your pocket prior to the withdraw.

and if it did come from a teller then s/he is short 20 bucks which doesn't look good for them career-wise and would definitely earn you karma bucks if you did the right thing first thing monday morning...

Well $20 isnt much so even if they do come back for it I dont think you'll get in that much trouble if you spent it, just go buy some weed :D.

It's only 20 bones but if they do link it back to you IE: What account was accessed when the extra bill was spit out or through the camera's then they will get you to pay it back. Happened to me.

and you should also know that most likely the teller that waited on you spent at least another hour past closing counting the till trying to find out why the cash doesn't balance. no, chances are they won't come looking for it and some may count it as a harmless windfall...others see it as a test of character.

If the shoe was on the other foot, and the bank teller shorted you $20 bucks, and you didn't discover it until till you got home .... What would you do in that case ???
a) Just forget it
b) go back to the teller and see if you could get him/her to recount the drawer
I think that the answer should be the same in either case.
For $20, I'd forget it either way ....
