What a great solution. Duh! Thanks for all your imput, everyone!
BTW: We emailed the cache owner and told him of its condition. And he said he would check it out. Who knows?
Next time we'll be a little more prepared. Trading out the contents and/or taking a picture to send to the owner seems much more proactive to enhancing this wonderful sport!

I figure as long as I leave something that's worth more than what I took, it's a perfectly reasonable solution to the problem. How much do you really need to leave to have it be "worth" more than "a non-lighting pen light, a melted candle, a couple of really goofy (and obviously well used) rubber balls, a pack of gum with no contents, a set of personal headphones (god-only-knows, who's ears they've been plugged into), an open pack of tissues?"
