Out of a desire to have their own place to relax in the dorm room, two students from the United States bought an old sofa from a website for only $ 20.
Although the piece of furniture was dirty and smelled bad, and the upholstery was in a good condition, not being gnawed, the two students were satisfied with the deal.
The girls cleaned it and then put a cover over it.
One evening, while they were sitting and watching the movie, the young woman felt something strange under the sofa. When they removed the covers, they were shocked.
Several envelopes with money were hidden there, the total amount amounting to $ 40,000! Fortunately, a phone number was written on one of the envelopes, so the young woman called to return the money.
The old woman from whom the sofa was bought was very grateful to them. “These are the savings my husband has made all his life. Unfortunately, he died, and I was hospitalized for a while. My children sold the sofa without asking me, ” said the old woman.
