Thrift Store Score.

Today while waiting for a friend to finish trying on some clothes at my favorite thrift store I noticed this Monopoly game on a shelf...

I've never seen it before, so I checked online with my phone and immediately decided to buy it...Paid $3.99-If you can't see by the photo, its still sealed.

Nice find. For the price you done real good. Now here's a tidbit of info for you-

When most people hear the words “Community Chest” they immediately think of the board game Monopoly. But, did you know that the "Community Chest" was an actual fundraising cause that started in 1930 in Wausau, Wi. and that it eventually evolved into what is known as "The United Way"?
A little fun fact for you. Here's the whole story-http://www.unitedwaymc.org/history.htm

Diggumup-I did not know that, nifty bit of info though.

Now the fun part...selling it...(or trading for some silver, lol)
