WALLET: Who sleeps better at night?
Coeur d'Alene Press | UPDATED 3 years, 7 months AGO
To the person who “found/stole” my wallet from Fred Meyer’s self-checkout on Sept. 6:
• The credit and debit cards were shut down very quickly — doubt they did you any good.
• The insurance ID cards and other membership cards won’t be of much value either.
• The well-worn picture of my wife and I at Silver Dollar City’s “Old Time Christmas” in 2008 cannot be replaced but we have the memories.
• The wallet itself — now that hurt. I had a hard time finding a wallet that really suited me and now its gone.
Then there was the $150 or so in cash. We are retired and live on a fixed income. That’s a little over a week’s worth of groceries to us in these inflationary times. But we’ll do just fine. Not only that, we can look at ourselves in the mirror without any sense of shame — wondering if the same is true for you. Hope you have had a nice week and enjoyed the “gift.”
