DD has just gone and lost her purse with 250 dirhams in it in Ibn Batutta Mall this evening! just wandering what the chances are of someone handing it in?! also a long shot but the description is a small leopard print purse with a pink bow on it, I think she won't be getting any spending money for a couple of weeks, me thinks..

Pretty good I would say. I lefta very expensive hand embroidered pashmina behind at a crowded concert in Abu Dhabi a couple of weeks back-sent my reluctant husband back to look for it half an hour later and it had been handed in-hope you get the purse back

Luckily people are quite honest here. I have lost ,my phone, credit card, car keys, cardigan, pashmina, etc many times and always got them back! She should just trace back the shops she visited, chances are good that the shop staff keep it for her.

DH left his bag in IBN last week - had his wallet inside all his credit cards etc no cash though & it was handed in so might be ok.

The chances are the same as anywhere I believe. Someone may keep it or someone else may hand it in. Did she report it to the Information Desk and leave contact details? Retrace her footsteps? It sounds like from the description it would be pretty easy to spot. Good luck, hope she gets it back.
