DEAR SUN SPOTS: On Saturday, Aug. 13, my husband and I went to BJ’s in Auburn. When I got out of our vehicle I spotted a container on the ground. When I picked it up I found that there was money inside it.

I reported it to customer service and asked them to page me if anyone reported losing money and when I left the store I gave them my name and phone number. I haven’t heard from anyone yet so I thought I would reach out to Sun Spots.

If you are the person who was at BJ’s on Saturday and lost some money, please contact me at 577-1828. You will need to identify the container and the amount of money it holds. —   Louise, no town

ANSWER: You are very smart to write to Sun Spots about this. You may also want to report it to the Auburn Police Department as people often call there to report lost and found items of value. Let us know what happens!
