+qhtxvckfkfl Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 Please, be honest, people....I've read about 3-4 caches in here where people put $100 in a cache; one girl said over $150 worth of stuff...but no one has yet responded to my question...has anyone EVER found $1,000 cash or more in a cache, or is this just a myth?????

umc Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 Not a myth, there is a group I think up in western Canada that puts big bucks in their caches. I know people have talked about putting 150 bucks of items in their caches but not necessarily 150 dollars cold hard cache. Quote Link to comment

+Johnnie Stalkers Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 I think someone is on a mission. Quote Link to comment
umc Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 Thanks CP, I believe that is who I was thinking of but when I read the cache pages I don't see big money numbers. Anyone know of any of their specific caches? Quote Link to comment
+calvinrtvp Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 I've got a brand new package of Monopoly money (even the big bills!) that I'm dropping off this week...does that count? Quote Link to comment
+carleenp Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 Here is an example of one. They did quite a few big money ones. Quote Link to comment
+ironman114 Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 I see they hid 20 to 30 a month for several months in a row last year. It also looks like they like hiding and reading foundlogs more than finding. To each his own I say and I think the good folks in B.C. must like having plenty of new caches to find.

+eroyd Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 TEAM KFWB GPS, now known as THE X-TREME GPS have been putting out big money caches in the Vancouver Island Region for about a Year and a half now. Due to constraints put on them by GC they were unable to put out the caches the way they wanted to. They have however been putting out dozens of "regular" caches, of which a few contain special instructions on competitions. The last one I'm aware of had a pay out of around $10,000 for the first three placers. These competitions are quite complex and involve a lot of running about and aren't for those with family commitments. All of their caches usually contain at least a $20 plus prizes but usually more. It's really quite amusing how fast these caches are found after posting. No serious fights YET! Presently I know of two ongoing ones. X-TREME GPS TEAM CACHE #20 has something to do with locating a plane wreck on a remote snowy mt. and XOXO cache has a bottle floating around somewhere worth a G. Why they do it? That's the burning question. But really, who cares? Their moneys seems good and everyone involved are enjoying themselves. Quote Link to comment
