Wal-Mart Shopper Finds Human Teeth In Wallet

Posted by samzenpus on Wednesday March 4, 2009 @07:15AM from the taking-a-bite-out-of-your-finances dept.

A shopper at a Wal-Mart made a gruesome find when he discovered the wallet he had just purchased contained 10 human teeth. The teeth were determined to be from an adult; one of them had a filling, police said. DNA tests can not be done on the teeth because there was no blood or gum tissue attached. When asked what he planned on doing with the wallet, he answered, "I plan on being more polite to the customer service people when I return it than the last guy."

The guy who turned in the wallet missed the boat. In another zipped compartment in that wallet was a note that says:
'Whoever finds this wallet (and my teeth!), gets a free dental checkup at Dr. We#$&ven's office."
It's a new guerrilla marketing campaign campaign that's spreading. If you find a foot in your laundry detergent, you get a free visit to the podiatrist.
