A variety of things, Jesus often told parables with a "moral to the story" to help us know how to live. The context was in their time, so you wouldn't find cars and other electrical devices. There's one about a lady who lost a coin, and searched lots and lots to find it and when she eventually did, well basically she had a party :) I think Jesus told this one as an example of God searching for individual people to find and repent to him, and when they do he's overjoyed and i think it says somewhere in The Bible that the angels sing praises in heaven or something when somebody becomes a christian.
Hope that's what you were looking for :)

In a Biblical parable, one would expect to hear a story that teaches a moral or spiritual lesson using everyday situations or familiar imagery. These parables are often used by Jesus in the New Testament to convey deeper truths about the kingdom of God and how people should live their lives.
