What would you do if you found thousands of dollars in a piece of furniture you had purchased?
That’s what happened to one local man.
“It still boggles my mind,” said Howard Kirby, customer.
Kirby likes to shop at the Habitat for Humanity ReStore in Owosso.
He purchased a couch from the store in December for his man cave, but this weekend he made a shocking discovery.
The couch was filled with thousands of dollars in cash.
“I still have to pinch myself to make sure I’m not dreaming or something,” Kirby said.
Kerby said he had the ottoman for a few weeks before noticing it was uncomfortable. That’s when his daughter decided to open it up.
“That’s when she started pulling out this,” Kirby said.
A total of $43,170 was found in the ottoman cushion.
