Yes, I do. I had forgotten about that. That was many years ago. Late seventies / very early 80's. He would dress like Snidely Whiplash.

I could probably figure out who you meant if you told me what you mean by money man. I remember a lot of the staff.

He was an employee dressed as a character

The money man was part of an advertising campaign at Eaton's. It was a locally produced t.v. commercial with a man dressed as Snidely Whiplash. You would see him running through the store giving out money to customers. If I can remember correctly, it wasn't actual cash, but more like coupons for money off merchandise.
