Scenario #1
Ron came home from work one day to discover that his puppy Mr. Sniffers, a police canine in training, was missing. Distraught over the situation, Ron posted signs all over the neighborhood seeking the safe return of his puppy for a $100 reward. Melissa was walking to the park with her two daughters when she noticed a puppy trying to cross a busy street. Upon closer inspection, she realized it was the missing puppy from the posters. She called out his name and he happily walked up to her and jumped into her arms. She carried the puppy to the address on the posters and rang the doorbell. Ron swung open the door and was elated to see Mr. Sniffers. Once Ron had Mr. Sniffers in the house, he paid Melissa the reward money.
Question: Was this a bilateral or unilateral contract? Explain.
Scenario #2

Kym told Sarah that it would cost approximately $300 to paint the house. Sarah thought that this quote was a bit high and offered $200 for the job. Kym agreed to the $200 and the two ladies shook hands.
