Amazing deals available on state web site

Forget Cyber Monday. We did a story on the unclaimed property auctions the State of Texas holds on eBay.

There's some good stuff. Valuable coins, three diamond rings and other jewelry. They even had a $500 bill. Comptroller Carole Keeton Strayhorn told me President Nixon stopped the $500 bill because of what he thought it was doing for drug dealers.

This was the second story we ran from my trip to Austin and interview with Strayhorn.

Here is the link to the story and unclaimed property website. CONTACT: Leave me a Houston or Texas media news tip | COMMENT: Click to leave your thoughts on this post here
