One of mine does.
Last winter I went to the school's lost property room and grabbed four school jackets that had no names on them and appropriated them.
They've all been lost again.
So this winter I've offered $3 for every orphan jacket that comes home. (And $1.50 for every one that has her name on it that might have been languishing behind a cupboard or something at school.)
Got two so far. Another couple and it will see us through winter.
Having little kids for whom $3 is a big deal helps, of course.
To encourage some entrepreneurial spirit, I suggested she might use her friends as scouts and cut them in on the action by buying then an ice block or something.
