TikToker @marthainfused made the surprising discovery inside a Coach bag she found at a Salvation Army store.

In a now-viral video that has been viewed more than 12.8 million times, TikToker @marthainfused told the story of how a $7 thrift shop purchase turned out to be so much more than just a bargain.

@marthainfused purchased a Coach purse at Goodwill for $6.99, but what she found inside was the real treasure.


She captioned her video:

"Check your mother's purses before you donate them to goodwill!"

In the video @marthainfused revealed that while she was cleaning the bag, she discovered an envelope containing money and a handwritten note.

"I though I could clean up, so I start working on trying to take this flap out at the bottom of a purse, and there is an envelope."

The envelope had $300, but the note written outside the envelope had the tea.

The note read:

"I have three children, they will give my things to Goodwill when I die. So I am putting their inheritance inside all my favorite things."

Of the bag, the previous owner Martha said her husband's mistress left it in their home while attempting a quick escape.

"I came home early from a visit to my parents' house in Connecticut."
"She must've left quickly because she forgot her bag and shoes."
"I carried it daily, and I am giving it away because my kids don't want it."
"So go buy yourself a new bag."

Check out the full video below.

Viewers chimed in. 

A few said that they would have returned to that Goodwill immediately to scrounge for more secrets.

The overwhelming majority, though, agreed on one thing: Martha is a legend.

@marthainfused has posted a couple of other videos claiming that people have contacted her with more Martha secrets.

In one video, a person contacted her and said that in the same thrift store she came across some glasses containing a note - but no money - that detailed an affair resulting in a love child.

Another user said she found $100 and a note in some jeans.

We can't wait to put all the pieces together when more of the notes are discovered!
