Lost Fortune Found at Market Basket

In Shrewsbury, Massachusetts, a Good Samaritan known as Skip restored faith in humanity by returning an envelope containing $12,000 to 71-year-old Ha, a senior citizen who lost her life savings while shopping at Market Basket. After an unsuccessful search and review of security footage, Ha and her nephew were leaving when Skip and the store manager approached them with the envelope, fully intact.
