Ten pound notes will be hidden across Cardiff on Thursday by a film maker who wants people to do more good deeds.<\/p>\n
They come in a plastic wallet with a letter which explains the money must be spent on somebody else.<\/p>\n
Matt Callanan is a film-maker who lives in Roath. He came up with the idea after meeting his idol, actor Bill Murray while filming at George Clooney\u2019s house in Oxfordshire.<\/p>\n
Mr Callanan won \u00a320 from a scratch card the same day and decided \u2013 as he\u2019d had a lucky streak \u2013 he would spend it doing something nice for someone else. He saw a man selling The Big Issue and went to the shop with him, buying food and essential items.<\/p>\n
Mr Callanan said \u201che gave me a massive hug, he looked really happy and then I felt really happy.\u201d<\/p>\n
He says this inspired him to set himself a challenge to do 100 good deeds.<\/p>\n
After his wife told him 100 was too easy, he increased this number to 403 \u2013 a figure taken from the film Groundhog Day where Bill Murray repeats the same day 12,403 times.<\/p>\n
Mr Callanan has sent ten \u00a310 notes to people in Cardiff but twenty more will be hidden around Cardiff on Thursday.<\/p>\n
Clues to their location will be posted on social media.<\/p>\n
He says, \u201cIt isn\u2019t about me hiding ten pound notes around the place.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s getting people to think what they could do with ten pound notes, because I think everyone\u2019s got ten pounds to spare in their wallet.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mr Callanan is encouraging people to use the hashtag #Tenner4Good so he can see how people have used them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
