Don't worry, they did the right thing...
You're a few days away from payday, funds are a bit low so what do you do? Yeah, you pull your house apart trying to find a few quid to tide you over until that sweet, sweet money is transferred into your account.
The couch is definitely one of the spots to check because there's always going to be something there but nothing like what three students at State University in New York found.
Stuffed into their two seater were envelopes bursting with cash and when they added it all up; the total came to $40,800, not bad considering they bought the couch for $20.
Now that's a lot of money for a student, you'd get a good few pasta stir ins and frozen pizzas for that, but these people did the noble thing and tracked down the owner of the couch.
They found a name on a deposit slip in one of the envelopes, it turned out to be the elderly woman who cried in gratitude when they gave her the cash she had hidden away years ago.
Our faith in humanity has been restored for another day.
