NORMAN, Okla. â A Norman, Oklahoma, Goodwill store employee organizing clothing donations recently made a startling discovery â $42,000 wrapped up in two sweaters.
Andrea Lessing said she initially assumed the money was fake.
âThat was my first thought, because who accidentally donates $42,000?â Lessing said. âI know accidents happen, but the chances of pulling out a sweater and finding that much money are pretty low.â
Lessing said she and her coworkers at the Main Street Goodwill store determined the money was real, tracked down the rightful owner using documentation found with the money and returned it.

Commission completes review of consumer mobile phone bills
The Commerce Commission has published a letter confirming it has completed its review of consumer mobile phone bills along with updated analysis addressing feedback from the telecommunications industry.
In September 2020, the Commission published an open letter to Spark, Vodafone and 2degrees asking them to share their plans for providing their customers with more meaningful product and service comparisons and to guard against overspending. This was accompanied by a report from Schiff Consulting, aspects of which were later contested by the industry.
In response to industry submissions Schiff Consulting has now refined the ‘right planning’ aspect of its analysis for some customers who used less than their quota in every month.

Decision has been deferred for the time being, not overturned completely.
Pakistan’s cabinet on Thursday put on hold a decision made by the country’s top economic decision-making body to allow imports of cotton and sugar from neighbouring India until Delhi reviews its 2019 move to revoke the Kashmir region’s special status, the foreign minister said.
In an effort to cool local demand and prices, Pakistan’s Economic Coordination Committee (ECC) on Wednesday gave the go-ahead for the imports, which was to have ended nearly two years of trade suspension between the nuclear-armed rivals.
