A mum has been warned of bad 'karma' after she decided to keep more than £1,000 cash she found hidden in charity shop item.

During a shopping trip round some goodwill stores with her sister, the woman picked up a "lovely" patchwork blanket that "looked like it was handmade." However, when she arrive home, she realised one section of the throw felt different to the rest, the Liverpool Echo reports.

She made a small incision to investigate the fabric, only to discover more than £1,000 in £50 notes tucked inside.The mum pondered using the money to help out with expenses for her upcoming holiday, but said she had a "nagging voice" in her head and was "imagining some old lady kept her savings in here and somehow it’s got to the charity shop".Taking to Mumsnet's popular Am I Being Unreasonable [AIBU] forum, she sought advice in a post titled "Found money … what should I do!"She explained: "A couple weeks ago I visited my sister and we went around a good few charity shops like we always do when we see each other."I noticed a lovely patchwork type of quilted blanket that looked like it was hand made!

I paid for it and it’s still been in the carrier bag till this morning as I wanted to wash it first before use."I was checking for any washing instructions on the labels and that’s when I noticed that in one quarter of the blanket it felt different - the more I pressed on that area the more I could almost feel something move so curiously I made a cut and I’ve found money inside.
