A Seattle thrift store recently got a very generous donation, but alas, not of something they can actually resell: 2.5 pounds of marijuana.
An employee at the unidentified thrift store found a pot-filled bag in a donation bin, and notified police about the puff-puff present, the Associated Press reported.

Donating to thrift shops is a terrific way to give a second life to your well-loved velcro sneakers, keyboards or flannel zebra jammies. However, thrift stores cannot accept the following items:
- Tires
- Soiled mattresses
- Laptops
- Large bags of marijuana
Remember, only donate SMALL bags.
