As this is not surprising in the America there are still people who, despite the availability of online cinema, take drives with movies for rent.

One elderly lady wanted to see the film and found in the box an unexpected surprise.

Mom Finds A Surprise Inside A Rented Dvd Case

Someone by the name of Marcos put in a disc a hundred bucks and a note.

Mom Finds A Surprise Inside A Rented Dvd Case

The approximate content of the note was:
“Hi, my name is Marcos. Each month, I give $ 100 to a stranger. This month, I decided to enroll in a different way and put money in DVD case. You – the first person who received the money from me in 2017. I only ask you to spend the money on something reasonable. If you wish, you could give them to someone who really needs them.”

This only shows that there are still people who are selfless and have huge hearts.

I have a question for the person that posted this, why the heck did you feel the need to completely change the note that he wrote in your description? :') dont get me wrong, the story is amazing. This marcos dude is such a precious human being <3 im just very upset with the fact the poster of this changed marcos note up so much that it even says something completely different from marcos note itself.

For those not in the US or those who don't know, Red Box isn't not a store. It is kiosks set outside of businesses that you rent movies out of with a subscription. It is not like Blockbuster was...this is a wonderfully selfless act and should be revered as one. I will attempt to pass this forward by giving money to those less fortunate than I also...that is the lesson to learn. Marcos, good job...one person's actions can start a revolution of good will and hopefully yours will do just that...

Here is a more accurate transcription of the note. I'm sorry if there are any mistakes. It certainly is a better transcript than the one from the post. Anyway, good post! :) 1/27/17 Hello! My name is Marcos. Every month I take $100,00 that I's normally spend on myself and give it away to a stranger. This month I decided to change it up and put it in a Redbox DVD. You are the 1st giveaway of 2017! I just ask that you put the money to good use. If you don't need it, give it away. If you need it, keep it. Have a great day! Marcos

Caring is one thing, having an extra $100 every month is quite another. Way cool

So you donate the way you want and Marcos will donate the way he wants and the world will continue to revolve; just remember it does not revolve around you.
