Not a garage sale, but a flea market run once a month near me. I had 5 5000 count boxes filled with 74 to 90 dubs. A little boy with his mom came back several times. He was shy, but eventually reached in his pocket and pulled out 2 dollars, and asked, How many can I buy for two dollars sir?". I looked at his mom and asked her how her son was doing in school? She said fine but was having a little trouble in math. Well, I said, I suppose I could let you have em all for that kind of money, but you will have to improve that math a little bit. His eyes got as big as pancakes. He and his mom and said "mahalo" over and over. They both assured me his math skills would improve. As I was helping him load the boxes, I slipped the 2 bucks in one of them for him to find later..Pay it forward guys!

Dave.
