A forgetful shopper left behind a bag with almost ,000 euros in cash at a supermarket in Mijas. But, fortunately, the money fell into the right hands. An employee of the supermarket, who made the discovery, reported it to the town's Local Police force. And, thanks to her, in just a few hours, the lost money was back with its rightful owner.

The incident happened last week in the Aldi store in Mijas. Following the discovery, police interviewed the supermarket worker and verified that inside the bag there was more than 8,800 euros in cash, as well as a bank book.

After verifying the owner of the bank book the shopper was called to the Local Police station to collect their belongings.
