- KrisStrong, on 06/10/2009, -1/+76It IS possible.....here we go:
$1,000,000 = 22 lbs.
Ten one-dollar bills weighed together equal 9.83 grams, so one dollar bill is .983 grams. Hundred-dollar bills weigh exactly the same as one-dollar bills.
One million dollars in hundred-dollar bills would be ten thousand hundreds, or 9830 grams, which is 9.83 kilograms.
That's just under 21 pounds and eleven ounces. Rounding off, you could say that a million dollars in hundred-dollar bills weighs about 22 pounds.
If the average Queen size mattress weighs 150lbs., that extra 20+ lbs wouldn't even be noticed. - DigTheDoug, on 06/10/2009, -2/+75There's always money in the banana stand.
- ousthouse, on 06/10/2009, -1/+58She should've been smart and invested that money in the stock market a few years ago. If she did, she'd have enough money to buy a new mattress.

1. an institution offering services, such as the safekeeping and lending of money at interest - avshanbh, on 06/10/2009, -8/+46I hope a poor palestinian family finds it.
- blackhole37, on 06/10/2009, -2/+38Just don't take off the tag
- Skeptica, on 06/10/2009, -2/+37She probably had the pleasure of counting her $1 million every night and went to bed with a smile knowing she was rich even when sleeping on an old, torn mattress. Now, she has to start over as a bag lady having nightmares sleeping on a new mattress. What difference does it make, to her, that the $1 million is gone? It's not like she was spending it.
- inactive, on 06/10/2009, -10/+43jews don't trust their own institutions?
- inactive, on 06/10/2009, -2/+30...and then stealing the interest back through fees.
- Jsmuli2, on 06/10/2009, -1/+27"Well, I lost my temper and I took a knife and I uh-. Do you know those "Do Not Remove Under the Penalty of Law" labels they put on mattresses? "..."Well I CUT one of them off! "
- inactive, on 06/10/2009, -1/+22There goes her inheritance.
- trolleyfan, on 06/10/2009, -5/+26Article's titled wrong: It *should* be "Moron keeps million dollars in mattress..."
- Alli3388, on 06/10/2009, -1/+18Her mother is a silly woman for keeping that much money in a mattress. What if there'd been a fire??? Or if her daughter chucked the mattress or something??? ;-)
- skinny01, on 06/10/2009, -0/+16What if she used to be a stripper and it was all in ones?
- digggggggggg, on 06/10/2009, -0/+16mattress
1. A sexually available girl who has many partners.
2. Model/Actress who has been paid to do neither.
Hrm, am I reading the right dictionary? - bkm72, on 06/10/2009, -3/+19I just looked it up, and you're right.!!!!! I stand corrected.!!
Never would have believed it though.!!
Thx - Suzilla, on 06/10/2009, -0/+13Damn, maths! You scary!
- inactive, on 06/10/2009, -0/+11Numb3rs.
- avshanbh, on 06/10/2009, -0/+11If you want label every Palestinian a terrorist then I label every small minded scumbag like you a racist.
- EddiePotato, on 06/10/2009, -0/+11Listen to you and your "what-ifs"!
- mikemehak, on 06/10/2009, -0/+10Pro-tip: If you throw out a mattress with $1,000,000 inside, don't release a press release letting people know there is a mattress out there with a ***** tonne of money inside.
- Coffeedemon, on 06/10/2009, -0/+10What if it was all in change?
- rinote, on 06/10/2009, -0/+9She was too heavily invested in her mattress, everyone knows you have to diversify!
- bkm72, on 06/10/2009, -11/+20How could you throw away a mattress with $1m. That mattress had to weigh a TON.
Ever pick up a box of books?
.....something stinks here. I bet the daughter stole the money and just came up with this story to get away with it.
Just doesn't add up - costumemaker, on 06/10/2009, -0/+9I know.. everyone knows jews hoard money in their mattresses. It was her fault for throwing it out without double checking. Just be careful not to throw out any leather necklace pouches, that's where they keep their gold.
... also, they can shoot lasers from their eyes, never look them in the eyes. - EddiePotato, on 06/10/2009, -0/+9Missed it by *that* much!
- Djokuuskaj, on 06/10/2009, -6/+14the headline would have been funnier if written: Jew throws away one million dollars
- inactive, on 06/10/2009, -0/+8don't be tellin the outsiders our traditions.
- SDeluxe, on 06/10/2009, -1/+8Bkm72, you probably won't read this but if you do.. why the hell do you a period before each (!)?
- atbnet, on 06/10/2009, -0/+7Why not? We give them billions and billions each year.
- fohf, on 06/10/2009, -1/+8Assuming she only saved hundred dollar bills.
- CylonsOfTheLamb, on 06/10/2009, -0/+6yep, and the funny thing is, for whatever reason, this woman wasn't let in on the secret that the Jews own all the banks. If she had been, she would have felt much safer putting her money in one of them.
digg for reminding me of cartman demanding that kyle hand over his jew gold. - alanic, on 06/10/2009, -1/+7150 lbs is a freakin' huge over estimation for a queen size bed. http://lmgtfy.com/?q=weight+queen+size+mattress
60 pounds. - eShinn, on 06/10/2009, -0/+6She's not out there looking for it... her daughter is - frantically. She talks about her mother's money. But really she's considering it her inheritance.
- Ryokuchaa, on 06/10/2009, -0/+6I’ll meet you down at the Big Yellow Joint...
- SwiftKick34, on 06/10/2009, -2/+8First name basis, huh?

- anexanhume, on 06/10/2009, -0/+5Tell 'em Large Marge sent ya! Eyhhhh heh heh heh heh heh!
- taiyed, on 06/10/2009, -3/+8Nothing to worry about -- American taxpayers will pay her back no problem.
- inactive, on 06/10/2009, -4/+9Oy.
Moral of this story: Dont be a jew with your money. - s0nicfreak, on 06/10/2009, -0/+4They didn't use to have the part about it being ok if you're the customer, that has only been added in recent years.
- m0tbaillie, on 06/10/2009, -1/+5senility
1. the quality or state of being senile ; specifically : the physical and mental infirmity of old age - EddiePotato, on 06/10/2009, -0/+4And possibly some nice down pillows!
- CoD4, on 06/10/2009, -0/+4And then borrowing your money against your will with no chance of repaying any of it.
- eShinn, on 06/10/2009, -0/+3Oh Crap! This is what happened:
1. Grandma used to love a good prank back in her hey-day.
2. Daughter buys her a new mattress and tells her she threw out the old one.
3. Grandma thought of the joke just to see the look on her face.
4. Grandma laughs hysterically as daughter runs out to the yard and chases the garbage truck down the street for several minutes.
5. Grandma forgets why she's laughing so hard.
*ZING! - tofagerl, on 06/10/2009, -0/+3There was 250 cc's of your father in that banana stand!
