Riddle Help

Ash

Thanks.

I agree... ash/dust is the answer.

ash

the answer might be ash.

no, its not a sales pitch.
I did the contest last year- obviousley, I didnt win it....but this is how it works....
everyday, for 14 days, a riddle is given on the air. you go to thier web site and submit the correct anwer if you think you got it. Everytime you answer a riddle correctley, you get a letter. After you recieve all 14 letters you have to try to word scramble the letters to come up with a clue as to where the treasure is hiding inside a major department store in my hometown. On July 15th at 8am, everyone participating in the contest gathers at the store, they open the doors at 8am and everyone runs into the store looking for a tiny piece of paper that says you won the wedding. The clue you get form answering the riddles right is only a hint as to where to look in the store.
Lat year there were about 200 people who did the contest. SO thats how it works.
Lynn- thanks again for the right answer, but can you get this one?

Question: Many things can create one, it can be of any shape or size, it is created for various reasons, and it can shrink or grow with time. What is it?
