My wife and daughter took a bunch of stuff to Goodwill last night. While there they found exact matching Christmas plates to the ones we already have AND they bought me 8 shirts. Nice shirts Izod, Joseph A. Banks, etc. Ive got a Brooks Brothers shirt I found at another Goodwill - $5 😃
I dropped them off on the way to work in our drop off bag this morning at the dry cleaners.
The dry cleaners called me at 8:30 to verify that two of the shirts were mine. Apparently they have a heat seal tracking device or like an iron on spot on each shirt by owner. They match it to the drop off bag. The former owner(s) must have used the same dry cleaner.
Who knew???

Pretty impressive in this day and age, to me.

I was thinking about the forensic angle too.
