[Sharon, please send me your mailing address so your I can send your tape measure.] Hidden items... This reminded me of my mother. She had a big freezer chest that she kept frozen meats, vegetables, etc. My brother went to clean it out because it quit working and he found a bag of 250 silver dollars. When he asked her about it, she was like, "Yeah, I didn't want anyone spending it" Thanks, Sharon B Here's Debbie from Oregon's story (tape measure on the way!): Linda from Alaska's story about finding money in odd places reminded me of my own experience. I was left as the executor of an older couples estate. While cleaning out the house I found several of the old glass cilinder-style Alka-Seltzer bottles in drawers. Each bottle was full of quarters. I ended up finding about $500.00 worth of quarter filled bottles! Debbie N That's the last of our stories to share. We'd love to hear more stories!
