>>>Here is a new trivia question for your potential amusement: name a place in
>>>or near Mayberry where money has been hidden. By hidden, I mean that normal
>>>places where one keeps money, such as a purse, wallet, pocket, bank, safe,
>>>or vault, do not count. There are many correct answers.<<<
Here are the ones I could think of:
In "Opie and the Bully," season 1, Aunt Bee keeps change in a ceramic teapot in
the kitchen cabinet.
In "The Bookie Barber," season 2, the bookie and his accomplices kept money
from bets in a satchel.
In "The Bank Job," season 3, Barney put money from the vault into his mop
bucket.
In "The Darlings Are Coming," season 3, Dud Wash hid his money in a special
money belt for protection. Now, this one is questionable because he says he
keeps his "valuables" in it but never actually mentions money, except to say
that it's a money belt (so it's implied).
In "Up in Barney's Room," season 4, Mr. Fields took Mrs. Mendlebright's purse
and hid it inside his suit jacket. (I think this counts because, even though
the money was in a purse, it wasn't carried openly.)
In "If I Had a Quarter Million," season 5, Andy and Goober discover that the
briefcase Barney found is full of money.
In "TV or Not TV," season 5, the fake movie producers put the money they stole
from the bank into a satchel.
In "Aunt Bee Takes a Job," season 6, Mr. Clark puts the money (albeit
counterfeit) into a briefcase.
In "Don't Miss a Good Bet," season 7, the Ross Treasure ($100,000 in gold) is
supposed to be buried three miles outside of town. According to George Jones'
map, it is located at Hopkins Creek.
