Mercedes for Sale @ $1
Someone put up this advertisement. No one believed it could be true, so no one responded, except for an old man who went to see the car.
The lady actually sold him the Merc, which had done just 12,000km, for $1, handed him the papers and the keys. Deal done.
As the old man was leaving, he said, "I’ll die of suspense if you don't tell me why this car was sold so cheaply."
The lady replied, "I am legally required to fulfill the will of my dear departed, now deceased husband, where it's written that the money received from the sale of his Mercedes shall go to his Secretary ..."

This one is so true.
My mother sent me 2 links over night to 2 separate Marie Wallin kits (wool and pattern) on UK eBay that she knows i like. One is them is a limited edition. I have so many of these kits that I think i could probably knit solidly for the next couple of years and only just finish the ones I have. But I know she likes feeling useful and likes buying them for me (I'm the only one she's not lent or given money to).
