One day, I was driving away from a thrift store and stopped at a traffic light right outside the store.
I thought I saw something on the ground.
It was a wallet with some woman's out of state ID, all her credit cards and $500 in cash.
But no address within 1000 miles.
I took it to the thrift store thinking she might have stopped there. No, but I trusted them to help find her.
They eventually did, by contacting her bank. I took a chance and won.
Otherwise, I've managed to find the owner of an original ipod, and a couple of iphones, with a little help from my daughter.
At some point, earlier or later, I did buy some speakers there for $50 a pair, whose latest edition (admittedly some 45 years after introduction) go for $3600 a pair.
I use the speakers every day. Only problem is like yesterday, when I ran to the living room to see who dropped the kettle drum. No, it was the speakers, sounding like the orchestra and singers were right there.
Contact me if you can use 14 totes worth of books, by the way. I thought of making "little free libraries" for them, but that would be full time work for months.
Cheers to all the good Samaritans out there.
