So I’ll start by saying I don’t know if this is in the right forum so mods feel free to move if necessary. So I stopped at my local Goodwill today even though my wife and I are staunch supporters of Amvets who don’t want certain items hence forth me stopping at Goodwill. The young man who was at least 19 considering high school was in session when I arrived informed me when I asked how his day was treating him that he was excited as earlier exactly when I don’t know someone dropped off some fishing rods and when I inquired he said the rods were Lews, StCroix and possibly some other higher end gear and that when his shift was done he was going to hopefully grab a few of them. I told him I already have more than I need to which he replied sounds like my dad and for a brief second I thought about parking and seeing what was donated but then it hit me that the excitement he was showing to hopefully grab a few of them if not all was more than enough to change my mind. I’m really hoping he was able to get some nice donated gear that I’ve never stumbled upon but have read about on this site. 

Nice! Considering how they would price them, I would’ve bought every single one and gifted them to him.

 

 

Nice story, thanks for sharing. I hope he gets some great stuff. I've never found anything like that at goodwill.

Dang that’s nice! The world needs more people like you! I know a gift like that would mean a lot to me so I’m sure he’d feel the same way!
