I brought the cell phone I found into a T-Mobile store after dinner. One of the clerks pulled the SIM card, looked up the number on the computer and called the owner.

The owner is, as it turns out, a preteen or early teen. The clerk called her, talked to her for a couple minutes, and then handed me the phone. Both the owner and the clerk thanked me profusely.

Well, I may not have gotten a free phone out of it, but I did a good thing and made someone quite happy. That's not too shabby. :^)
