Empty Beer Cans

When Bill and Hillary first got married, Bill said, "I am putting a box under
the bed. You must promise never to look in it." In all their 30 years of
marriage Hillary never looked. However on the afternoon of their 30th
anniversary curiosity got the best of her and she lifted the lid and peeked
inside.
In the box were 3 empty beer cans and $1,874.25 in cash. She closed the box
and put it back under the bed. Now that she knew what was in the box, she was
doubly curious as to why.
That evening they were out for a special dinner. After dinner Hillary could no
longer contain her curiosity and she confessed, saying, "I am so sorry. For all
these years I kept my promise and never looked into the box under our bed.
However, today the temptation was too much and I gave in. But now I need to know
why do you keep the cans in the box?"
Bill thought for a while and said, "I guess after all these years you deserve
to know the truth. Whenever I was unfaithful to you I put an empty beer can in
the box under the bed to remind myself not to do it again."
Hillary was shocked, but said, "I am very disappointed and saddened but guess
after all those years away from home on the road, temptation does happen and I
guess that 3 times is not that bad considering the years."
They hugged and made their peace. A little while later Hillary asked Bill, "So
why do you have all that money in the box?"
Bill answered, "Well, whenever the box filled up with empty cans, I took them
to the recycling center and redeemed them for cash..."
