What would you do if you found a wallet with more than 100,000 baht in cash? At a Big C in Chanthaburi, near the Cambodian border, a maid found a wallet with thousands of baht in cash while cleaning a bathroom. She decided not to pocket the cash and returned it to the owner. Even the wallet’s owner expected it to be gone.

Wachira Charoenan shared her gratitude on Facebook. She said the wallet was left behind by accident in the Big C’s bathroom and didn’t realise it was gone until she was driving off. The Burmese maid, Tin Tin Shu, found the wallet and told her employee in case the owner came looking for it.

“Thank you to the Burmese maid and employees at the Chanthaburi Big C for such good care. I am very impressed and already expressed my appreciation as a gift for the maid. I thought the wallet was going to be lost forever, as there was a lot of cash inside.”
