SHOOT: Must be pretty damn uncomfortable sleeping on $1 million stuffed into your mattress. Talk about the princess and the pea.
She was identified only as Anat, a resident of Tel Aviv.
When she went to look for the mattress it had already been taken by garbage men, she said.
Subsequent searches at three different landfill sites turned up nothing.
A newspaper published a picture of the woman searching through garbage at a dump in southern Israel.
Yitzhak Borba, the dump manager, told the radio station that his staff was helping the woman, saying she appeared “totally desperate”.
He said the mattress was hard to find among the 2,500 tons of garbage arriving at the site every day.
He said he increased security at the site to keep would-be treasure hunters at bay.
For her part, Anat said it could be worse. “People have to take everything in proportion and thank God for the good and the bad,” she said.
