Couple Shows Honesty When Treasure Inside McDonald’s
A Surprising Find
When Stacey Terry handed her husband their McDonald’s breakfast order, she noticed the bag felt unusually heavy.
Instead of food, the Terrys found bundles of cash—actually a bank deposit accidentally given to them at the drive-thru.
Doing the Right Thing
The family realized the mistake miles away but never considered keeping the money.
“As soon as I realized it was their deposit, my first instinct was to take it back,” Stacey told News 5.
“With that, I couldn’t live with myself.”
Returning the Money
When they returned, the employee who made the mistake was visibly shaken.
McDonald’s management praised the Terrys’ honesty and promised to review the mix-up, emphasizing that their actions reflected true community values.
A Lasting Lesson
The Terrys hoped no one would be punished for the error and focused on resolving it fairly.
Their story spread widely, showing that “doing the right thing is always the best choice.”
