Default Found Gold Today!!

Hello all. I stopped today to help an elderly couple change there car tire on the side of the road. Across the street there was a yardsale. There was a big free box there. I got this 14K Gold Bracelet out of it. It weigh's 2.9 Grams. I asked the lady if she knew it was in there to be sure and told her it was real gold but she didnt want it and didnt want anything for it. So I scored it. About 40 Bucks in gold...

Thumbs up Good Kharma

I think Kharma is just about as important as what machine you use and how you interpret the tones. Stopping to help others, picking up litter and trash and being generally ethical is its own reward. But the universe seems to add the reward of putting neat stuff in your path.
Way to go - way to score. Congratulations on a good deed and a good find.

Nice find. When you're a detector(ist), you always have an eye open for glitter!! You never know where it will turn up! And, yeah, having a good sack of instant Kharma at hand helps too!
