All is not necessarily lost, Kitsune.

Walking out of the local Fred Meyer (a superstore with groceries and department store type goods), I heard something beepbeepbeepbeeping as I walked past an ATM with a Visa Card poking out of the slot. I took the card and walked into the bank (the little inside the store mini branch) of the bank sponsoring the ATM, and asked them if they knew how to reach the customer on the card (it was the same bank on the card). They said they could and would return the card to their customer.

Now, that was just yesterday, so I don't know if it's back to the owner yet, but people *do* turn in orphaned valuables. It does happen.
