What do you do if you receive an additional $800+ salary credited mistakenly? ?

I received an extra $870 salary for this month which I believed the Finance department credited mistakenly. It is neither a bonus or an increment as the payslip didn't state so. Do I swallow it quietly and make use of this "accidental bonus" and treat my family a big feast or do I inform the HR about it?
