Guy has best Valentine's Day ever after couple returns lost $11K

2/20/2013

$11,060 can buy a lot of Valentine's Day bling — a truckload of Starbucks Quadriginoctuple Fraps, a couple of 3-D chocolate printers — but when Carlos and Barbara Landeros discovered a camera bag stuffed with cash on a romantic getaway to San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge, they didn't go shopping. Instead, they waited around for an unromantic 45 minutes, hoping the owner would turn up, then headed to the San Fran Hall of Justice. Cops traced the lost satchel back to "Mark," a tourist who said he was holding the money for a group of travelers. Despite her ruined romantic evening, Barbara says, "My heart is rested now because the people got their money and their bag." [Source]
