When my grandmother passed away, I thought the only thing she left me was a modest $50 gift card—hardly the inheritance one dreams of, but perfectly fitting for a woman renowned for her extreme frugality. Little did I know, that small card would unlock a secret life she had hidden from all of us.
I had always thought of Grandma as the stingiest woman alive. After her funeral, I found the gift card tucked away among her belongings. Initially, I almost gave it away, dismissing it as insignificant. But on a quiet afternoon, curiosity got the better of me, and I handed it to a cashier.
