Employees of Parksville’s Salvation Army thrift store have turned over what is described as “a large amount of cash” to Oceanside RCMP after it was found inside a donated item.

They believe the money might have been inadvertently left there.

It was discovered in the Island Highway West store Feb. 15.

“Any person wishing to claim the cash must be able to provide identifying details confirming ownership,” said Sgt. Shane Worth.
