400 rubles on the porch: an incident

The Belarusian case that drew attention to the local residents' mentality

400 rubles for an order of 'korennye' kuražki (porch delivery) were left on the porch of one of the Belarusian courtyards. The man delivered the food, the homeowners were absent, and the order was left in the yard, with payment made right there. Leaving the money in an open courtyard, where anyone could walk in, remained picturesque. Such a case is extremely rare in any Western country. The scene was recorded on video, which is now spreading on social media, with suggestions to show it to friends from Europe.
