http://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/Bloomingdales-Glitch-Shopper-Diamond-Earrings-25000-Gift-Card-Loyalty-Program-322175712.html

Just read this somewhere else... Wow... Lucky guy!!!

"According to Buzzfeed, Bloomingdale's called that shopper and said he "needs to return" everything he bought, and he'll be given a $100 gift card for his trouble. Buzzfeed's Sapna Maheshwari writes: "If he doesn’t, he will be banned from the loyalty program — a seemingly acceptable sacrifice for the $17,000 worth of free stuff he picked up." Indeed, that's not much of a threat when you have a new LV bag in the balance."

I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

http://www.jta.org/2014/04/29/life-religion/at-wrigley-field-orthodox-vendors-going-the-way-of-cubs-wins
I met an old man in Israel years ago (who has since passed) who told me he was one of the first Jewish vendors at Wrigley.

He was full of great stories of Chicago in the 30s & 40s

300 tons of gold is worth 10 billion dollars
This is a silly quote
Quote
The men, a German and a Pole, say the train is 490 feet long and contains Nazi treasure that could be worth “well over a million dollars” says Marika Tokarska, an official at the Walbrzych district council.
