It can be as inconsequential as a pack of gum or a candy bar all the way up to something that is very expensive. It all depends on the depth of your pockets, the degree of closeness or the circumstances surrounding the situation. </p><p><br /></p><p>On a personal note, I have kept a few assorted items from certain hauls that I have made over the years. After you dig through enough of their stuff you start to feel like you sort of know them. It has usually been something that fits into my various collections, but is just something to happens to be included in their stuff. I have found that years later the item can bring a smile to my face &amp; reminds me of all of the truly cool items I got to &quot;play with&quot; then send on to their forever homes.</p><p>Peggy[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
