DELTONA, FL, USA. Henry Snowden, 31, decided to eat out one Friday night. He pulled into a drive-up window at Burger King. Hungry as a bear, he ordered a large burger, large fries, and a king size drink. Snowden got his fast food as well as a big surprise. Stuffed inside one of the paper bags is $4,170!
“I looked at the money as I ate. I knew immediately I should give it back,” Snowden said. But Snowden did not return the money right off the bat. He went home to sleep on it. “ I’ve got to say, I was tempted to keep it,” he admitted.
Snowden went back to Burger King the next day to give back the money. Restaurant workers greeted him with tears in their eyes and gave him lunch on the house. They explained that the restaurant put its bank deposits in paper bags to prevent robberies. By mistake, a clerk gave Snowden the wrong paper bag.
Burger King may offer Snowden a reward. But Snowden says there’s something better- he has a clear conscience. “I’m glad I did the right thing. I feel better than I’ve ever felt.”
