Analysts credit warm weather and a neighbour who did not have exact change.

The honesty box closed its first day of trading at $14, a record for an opening Saturday.

Roughly $4 of the total came from a neighbour who left a five and refused change, which Pop has booked as “a tip” and will mention for the rest of the season.

One basket was taken without payment. Pop believes it was “the deer” and has adjusted his projections accordingly.
