Default What is Your Greatest Non-Card Discovery ?

Posted By: pete

back in late '70s my mother gave me $3 to pick up a dictionary at the 5 & dime store for school (im 10 yrs old). i passed a yard sale and found a dictionary for .50 cents and figured i'd buy it and keep the $2.50 for myself. when i got home and showed my mother, after yelling at me she opened it to find $1400 placed inbetween the pages.

needless to say, i was forced to return the book to the lady i bought it from. she said her husband who was dead for a number of years must of hid it there and she never knew.

my reward was $20
