Anonymous lady left a waitress a $12,000 tip!

What would you do if this was you? A waitress, Stacy Knutson was working at the Fry'n Pan restaurant when a customer left behind a takeout box from another restaurant. She followed the diner to her car and tried to return the box but the lady said, "No, I am good, you keep it".

When Knutson went back into the kitchen and opened the box, she found three wads of bills – $100s, $50s, $20s and $10s – wrapped in rubber bands. She then decided to call police. Officers told her to wait 90 days in case someone claimed the money. No one did but police still refused to return the cash, saying it was being held in a drug investigation because it smelled of marijuana.

Stacy Knutson of Moorhead, Minn., filed a lawsuit asking that the cash be returned to her. She said she believes the money was meant as an anonymous gift from someone who knew that she, her husband and five children were struggling with severe financial difficulties.
