Somebody Donated A Cooler To Goodwill And Whoops It Had $24,000 Worth Of Weed In It

March 15 (UPI) — Police in Washington state said a cooler donated to a Goodwill store turned out to contain something far more valuable — $24,000 worth of marijuana. Monroe police said workers at the local Goodwill were sorting through donations during the weekend when they came across the cooler. “This cooler was donated over the weekend to the Goodwill. Employees surprised when they opened the lid,” police tweeted. The cooler was found to contain multiple baggies containing a total 3.75 pounds of marijuana, which police estimated had a $24,000 street value. Police are investigating and the Goodwill store is checking surveillance footage to try to identify the person who donated the cooler.

Just a tale as old as time here. Somebody takes something to Goodwill without checking inside it first and lo and behold there’s something incredibly valuable in it. Normally people find historic documents or paintings by Picasso or whatever but I would argue finding $24,000 worth of weed is just as exciting. It always amazes me that a story like this gets out. I hope fore every story like this that comes out that there’s 20 other stories where people found something similar and just kept it for themselves. That’s the world I wanna live in. I wanna live in a world where a story like this doesn’t get reported and instead the lucky discoverers just get high for two years straight and never make any headlines. Flip side, who’s to say that person wasn’t giving the weed to charity? It happened in Washington state where the devil’s lettuce is legal. Maybe they gave 24 grand worth of mary jane out of the kindness of their heart. It’s about time we start giving weed some good PR imo.
