One nоt sо unusuаl dаy, Dоn - аn elderly gentleman - said to his friend Peggy, “I lost my wallet at the grocery store . . . if you find it, I will give you $100 upon its return”. Peggy replied that, instead of the $100, she wanted the Tiffany lamp in Don’s living room. He replied, “That old thing? It’s worthless! If that’s what you want, then sure, you bring me my wallet and the lamp is yours.” Peggy knew the lamp was worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. Peggy went to the grocery store and found out that Don’s wallet had been turned into the store’s lost and found bin. The store wouldn’t release it to Peggy because she wasn’t its owner. Peggy called Don and let him know that she found his wallet but that he needed to come to the store to retrieve it from the lost and found. Don thanked her but also said that since she didn’t return the wallet to him, she wasn’t going to receive his lamp. Don also told her that he was withdrawing his offer. Peggy used her sparkling charm to convince the store clerk to give the wallet to her and then brought it to Don. The wallet contained $10. Don thanked her for her troubles but gave her nothing in return. Peggy sued Don for breach of contract. In the matter of Peggy v. Don: (1) Is there an enforceable contract between the parties? Discuss. (2) Assuming that an enforceable contract exists between the parties, what remedies are available to Peggy? Discuss.
