This is somewhat funny. A mother whose kid sneaked some Pokemon cards in her grocery cart. Now she decides to sell the cards on eBay with a long winded description of how she ended up with cards... This turned into an auction with over 170,000 views and a sale price of $142.51! This is quite an interesting example of viral marketing, how something simple takes a life of its own. At least the cards almost ended up paying for her grocery trip :)
