Cash Wad

The day before Father's Day I took my daughter to the local grocery store to buy a Father's Day gift and a Birthday present for her sister. (I know the grocery store is not the best place to find a gift, but Target was closed and we had just gotten back from a trip)  So we were at the check stand getting ready to pay when my daughter realized that she had lost her money.  We looked all over the store and and couldn't find it.  She went up to the front end counter and told the clerk.  He made an announcement  over the intercom.  We kept looking by this time she was in tears she went and talked to the manager again.  At this time he made another announcement, he said, "We have a really sad little girl who has lost her wad of cash, if anyone has it they would really brighten up her day by returning it."

At this time a young girl (teenager) walked up and returned the money to my daughter.  The manager got on the intercom and thanked everyone and said that the store had the best customers.  Then the manager went over to the bakery and got a box of cookies and gave it to the girl and told her thank you for being so honest. 

I was really touched by this whole situation.  I thought it was awesome the way the manager handled the whole situation, instead of just saying something like, "write your name down and we'll call you if anything turns up".  I am so grateful for caring people that go the extra mile.
