There are a lot of threads already here about stolen cards, well let's go the other way now.

Shopping, as I always do, this morning at the local WM and as I was putting my cart into the corral I noticed something on the ground.

Let me say that this was about 8:40am, and there was only one other car parked on the non-market end of the building, everyone else on the grocery side.
But I looked down when something caught my attention, pick it up - its a credit/debit card.
Take it in and let them know that it was found outside.

As Im walking out I thought, 'I should put this online, see if anyone MAYBE knows her, can alert her.'
I did. It worked.
Within an hour or so she'd be forwarded my post and went and picked her card up. She dropped it the night before, didnt even know it was gone.

I see a lot of people bitch and moan about Facebook - ie this week I saw someone doing just that and how if youre on there you're feeding into Soros or some non-sense...
Anyway, this time it helped get some back in touch with their debit card.
Thats it.
Social media, and I'd argue this forum is a form of it too, is a great tool. And, like guns, is sometimes abused. But when used properly its a wonderful invention and way of extending your reach far beyond what was available years ago.

Also, felt good to help someone out. :)

Or, as I did, complaining about complainers ;)

I did something nice this morning that I HOPE many others would have done too.
It was use of the tool that made it work. I was thrilled that in an hour or so multiple people I knew shared the post because they knew the young lady. That's awesome.
She went to my high school, but not my grade (not sure when she was there), but she knew people that I knew and those connections got her connected...that's cool, man.

But yall have a great Sunday afternoon.

Good job!

I have a buddy that metal detects. Craziest story I've watched unfold so far was he was at Myrtle Beach. Found a wedding ring. His wife posted pictures on FB while she was still in TN. Found the guy, while he was still at the beach, and he met him to get him the ring.
