Good Girl Mikela

Hawaii is well known for it's beautiful beaches and sparkling water,but the islands got just a bit lovelier,thanks to the honesty of 11 year old Mikela Mercier.
Mikela found the ultimate bargain at a Salvation Army
Thrift Shop on the Big Island of Hawaii .She picked up an old copy of a Richard Simmons workout videotape,opened the case and discovered,wedged in with "Sweatin to the Oldies",$1000 in $100 bills.
Mikela showed her mother the cash and said they needed to notify the store.The proud mom said her daughter knew the money rightfully belonged to the Salvation Army and that it would go to help people who really needed it.
Somewhere,Richard Simmons is welling up.

  1. Great piece. Great girl. There is a law that says if you find money 10% of the total sum belongs to the honest finder. As reward.
