I had this idea a while ago that sounds like something george would have done, but they never put it in an episode, curious what YOU people think;
George loans someone money-- say-- $60, nothing to huge, but big enough that (to george) it would be a massive deal. The person he loans the money to, dies. George attends the funeral, and sheepishly asks the widow/widower/father/brother/mother, etc. for the money back.
just a thought :-)
