Thrift store gets laptop back after $5 sale





- An Idaho thrift store manager has her laptop back after it was accidentally sold for $5 last week.
Sandra Bechthold says she was stunned when a customer returned the computer to the store Tuesday. the man refused her offer of a reward and wouldn't even give them his last name.

The man explained that his wife had heard about the mistake through the news and he decided to return the computer to the Women's Center Thrift Store.
Bechthold told the Coeur d'Alene Press she didn't know how her laptop ended up among the items in the donation receiving room or how it ended up being sold without having a price tag. She ran a classified ad in the paper seeking its return but had nearly given up when the man returned the computer.
