The latest challenge on social meeting that is driving people crazy at local Goodwill outlets...it's called "Good Will Hunting"! The Mike & Carla Morning Show started talking about this morning where people are starting to invade local Goodwill stores looking for hidden cash!

What people have started to do is go into a Goodwill store, rifle through the pockets of clothing, going through the pages of old books or even album covers looking for hidden cash. To be honest, we've all done it, left money in pockets of pants and shirts that we ended up donating.

What happens? Someone ends up buying the clothes, the first time they put 'em on, they check the pockets and blamo...you find forgotten cash!

Well, now more and more people are doing it at the store without buying the clothes, just going through the clothing...in fact one woman found over $600 in a suit pocket! Others are headed to old book stores hoping for the same reward! Spend a little time in hopes of a nice cash reward...if you have the time, why not right?

Carla Rea talked about her employment at a local cleaners up in Reno...and the same thing. She would go through the pockets to make sure they were empty and every once in awhile, she would end up with enough cash for the weekend party night with her friends!

Now we admit, not the most honorable way to make a couple of bucks, but in a time when some have to do what they have to do to get by, it's not breaking any laws at this point in time. And in the end, who knows, you might actually see something that you like or a pair of pants that actually fit!

Either way, listen to the details on this story and others in this segment of "A Few Things We Think You Should Know" on The M&C Morning Show...and enjoy!
