-A woman in my city accidentally left her bag in a restaurant. There was $4k in cash rent money inside.

The problem was that their e-commerce system didn't allow shipping to Poland, my home country. So I emailed them asking if it was possible to ship to Poland. After confirming they could, they told me that if I order it today by 1 pm, they'll ship it the same day.
