What's the best thing you've found?

I found a carton of 200 cigarettes left in a trolley in Waitrose Car Park yesterday afternoon.
I was in the car to leave, saw them, jumped out and grabbed them. Then spent a moment to decide what I'd do with them.
I gave up the fags about 10 years ago, one of my proudest achievements, so they're no good to me.
I suppose I could give them to a friend, or family member...but they've all given up as well, I couldn't think of a single person.
I could sell them to someone at work, but I earn enough that 30-40 quid I'd get just isn't worth the bother (how much are fags now days?)
So I took them back in the shop and left them at the customer service counter. I felt a bit miserable really. Yearning for my skint smoke filled youth I guess, when such a find would have felt like Christmas, and I'd have rushed home holding them up in triumph as Iwalked through the door.
