The woman who discovered a large amount of money in the old sofa was given, and then made everyone applaud

Ms. Vicky Umodu and her family have just moved into a house in San Bernardino, California (USA), but there is no furniture. Because in order to save money on shopping for furniture, Ms. Vicky decided to go online to find second-hand items that fit her budget.

In the process, Vicky suddenly discovered a list of items to give / give away (ie, no money to buy). Including a sofa set is quite new and beautiful.

The woman said: “At the time, I thought it was just a gimmick to get people in. But I still wanted to call and ask.”

To save money on furniture shopping, Ms. Vicky decided to go online to find second-hand items that fit her budget.

Later, Vicky learns that the sofa is actually owned by a family. They want to clean up their deceased loved one’s old belongings.

Vicky told them: “I just moved into a new house, and I don’t have any furniture. I would be happy to bring that sofa home to use.”

While cleaning the chair, Ms. Vicky discovered a huge amount of money.

While cleaning the sofa, Vicky felt something bulge from underneath the outer fabric. At first, she thought it might be a heat pad. Vicky unlocks the mattress and finds a pile of envelopes containing thousands of dollars in cash.

She said: “At that time, I couldn’t believe my eyes anymore. I called to my son: ‘Hurry, come here, come see!’. I shouted: ‘Here’s the money!'”.

The total amount of money that Vicky found under the sofa was 36,000 USD (equivalent to 835 million VND). Not a small number for Vicky’s family.

The total amount under the sofa is 36,000 USD (equivalent to 835 million VND).

However, instead of keeping all the money for herself, this woman decided to immediately return the money to its true owner.

She said: “Life has treated me and my children well. All of them are safe and healthy. I have 3 beautiful grandchildren, so what more can I ask for?”

When the money was returned, the family who donated the sofa told Vicky that there was indeed cash hidden in the house. To thank, they sent Vicky 2,200 USD (equivalent to more than 50 million VND) to buy a new refrigerator. Although before that, when bringing the money to pay, Vicky did not expect to receive anything in return, not even 1 cent.
