Subject: Another funny money story..

This happened last year. I was at the shopping plaza and happened to notice an elderly lady at the butcher's counter.. she bought her meat then without looking.. slid her hand down to her shoulderbag to put her money(notes) back in, but she missed and it fell onto the floor. She didnt notice, and neither did anyone else apparently except me. She walked off, so I scooped up the money (a lot!) and hurried after her. When I handed it back she as SO grateful, and asked me where I was going next? I said the cake shop, so she insisted that she pay for whatever I was going to buy! I tried to tell her it didnt matter but she insisted. Well, all I had intended to buy was a sausage roll and a custard tart.. which came to about $4.. so I did, and the lady paid for them. But I've always wondered what she would have done if I'd said I had planned to buy a $25 Black Forest cake! LOL!
