Most of us have had the experience at one time or another of going through the McDonald's drive-thru and getting a little extra surprise—say, one more cheeseburger than we ordered or an extra bag of fries.

But TikToker Josiah Vargas got a major bonus with his last McDonald's drive-thru run. The Sausage McMuffin he ordered was there, but so were several bags full of thousands of dollars in cash.

Vargas, who goes by @dookiedoeboy on the app, showed off his drive-thru haul in a viral video showing the ziploc bangs full of cold, hard cash that were thrown into the bag along with his McMuffin, making for a breakfast to die for.

Holding up the McDonald's bag, Vargas said:

“What’s in this bag? Their fu*king deposits."
He then opened the bag to reveal several plastic bags full of cash and went on to say:

"Just a couple thousand dollars here."
"Like, what is this? Why would they do this?"

Now if you're like a lot of people you would have immediately floored the gas pedal and run off to Mexico or something with your new fortune, but Vargas is a better citizen than many.

He vowed to take the money back to the McDonald's.

"Now I have to return this because I’m a good person, I guess."

Though relatably, he returned the money only begrudgingly and with much lament.

"Why would you guys do this to me? Do you know how bad I want this money?"

Vargas then filmed himself returning the money inside the McDonald's to a chorus of gratitude from the employees.

And he didn't walk away empty-handed.

He was rewarded with $200 and free McDonald's for a month. A poor substitute for bags full of cash, but still more than he had when he entered the drive-thru line.

On TikTok, Vargas' video and especially his honesty definitely left people surprised.

But lots of others admitted they would definitely not have handled this with Vargas' scruples.
