Meme? We just did this at moleskinerie. I said $25 plus they can have the ten-spot that is in the accordian folder.

Oo…sorry. Apologies to the Molskinerieians for ganking their idea.

I need to get out more.

haha regardless of that fact Merlin I will indulge the comments and add that i put in my 2005 Agenda, my regular blank ‘skine and 2 blank Volants ‘free music from my label Counter Intelligence’ as a reward.

You can always just threathen people too in the reward section ‘your cat will be dead tomorrow if you dont return this to me as im psychic’.

A threat, eh? I like the cut of your jib, John.

I’m thinking some kind of extremely vague suggestion of a sexual favor written in balloony handwriting with heart-dotted “i’s” might also do the trick.

Something with cuddling. My Little Pony or Carebears drawings might put anyone off-track too, hahaha.

$10 Amazon or iTunes gift certificate, money to cover postage…and my eternal gratitude.

I’m hoping the last part of that is the clincher.

Here’s mine. Shamelessly copied from the dialogue in the Grand Theft Auto 2.

Half of a twenty dollar bill, promising the other half if they return it. You can make the cut all fancy with craft craft scissors.

A hot dog?? What’s in it for Vegans???

$30, plus the entire contents of the accordion folder (usually it’s just hilarious stuff like a yo! mtv raps tone loc trading card, stupid fortune cookie fortunes, etc), a few ironic bumper stickers, and a thank you letter written in crayon.

thankfully i have not had to exercise this retrieval scheme.

I haven’t filled out my reward line yet. When I first bought the notebook, I didn’t know how valuable it would be to me. Now, I’m not sure how to put a $ on it. I like your idea of a pint, though, and my do that myself.

As for needing a reward to return someone’s lost notebook, I don’t think I’m that kind of guy.

I’d promised “an enlightened state of mind” when I purchased my latest Moleskine. I’ve also since lost that one along with the attached Fisher Space Pen. I guess mental well-being wasn’t as important to them as being able to write underwater. Maybe I should reconsider the importance of my Moleskine.

Gratitude

I offer $0.02 per written page. Seriously.

I offer ‘my endless love.’

Arm and/or leg

George, I ask myself “What’s in it for vegans?” all the time. ;-)

I guess I’d just have to hope that they’d eaten recently and were looking to start a bender. They’re allowed to drink beer as long as it’s free-range, right?

$4.20

I have always written a mere “1000 blessings” on the reward line in my Moleskines.

Reading this thread, I guess I should update the next one to say “1000 blessings and a hot dog”.

The answer to the “What’s in it for vegans???? question is, of course, mostly soy.

The reward spot on my notebook is blank… I suppose I figure I’ll never lose it, which is silly because I always lose things. I’d better come up with something good.

Definitely NOT hotdogs (hate ‘em and I’m vegan).

How about a blank - NEW - Moleskine notebook?

Eternal life.

then i sure do hope i find your notebook someday Alexander.

i offer unlimited karma.

Mine is “$10, or cookies (if I’m broke)”

I think maybe next time I should just offer homemade cookies fullstop. If I can’t make ‘em, my fiance’s mom would. She’s like a human cookie machine and they’re ALL good.

mine is “my ever gratefulness.”

Gunga galunga… (So I got that goin’ for me, which is nice.)

“A bottle of —-“. I can decide at the time whether it is worth a bottle of beer or wine or scotch.

I offer 20 EUR money. Yes, I am Finn and I live in EU-country called Finland.
