Re: I expected the worst today when I went grocery shopping
I was in the check out and it was time to pay my bill and the woman behind me payed the whole bill $157! I was speechless all I could do was thank her. It just made my day and when I start back full time at work I’ll definitely pay it forward.

Re: I expected the worst today when I went grocery shopping
how does that happen , if she was behind you? .... she broke the 6ft social distance, and gave the cashier her card?

This thread just doesnt make any sense
 Quoting: Oxi moran


I don't understand how you don't understand.

A woman paid for the OP's groceries. It was a random act of kindness and the OP shared the story here.
Understand?
 Quoting: terrifiedanimal


I'm guessing the part they don't understand, is the fact that the OP obviously had the MONEY to pay, since she was in the checkout line with $157 worth of groceries.

Why would someone offer to pay for them, and why would the OP accept the offer?

Something doesn't make sense here.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78740215

Re: I expected the worst today when I went grocery shopping
I paid for a seniors's medication at the pharmacy the other day. He was in front of me in the (6 foot minimum distance) line. He counted his money and didn't have enough. So I just paid.

To be honest I'm sure all this isolation and fear increased my altruistic motives. Just felt good to help someone in this time of madness.

Re: I expected the worst today when I went grocery shopping
I had a woman ask me to pay for her groceries the other day.
She said she had 3 kids and no money to feed them.

I might have done it if she had had less, like maybe 20 bucks worth of good food, but her cart was full of junk food, donuts, chips, candy, etc. At least $200 worth.

I told her I couldn't but the food banks are still open.
This is my happening and it freaks me out!

That was a nice thing to do. Probably try to stay out of those lines though. It is only going to get very nasty from here on out. Pay for one dude an you will have 100 behind you demanding the same.

Re: I expected the worst today when I went grocery shopping
Excellent. Had a pastor offer to buy my groceries a few days ago, I'm new to the town.

I turned him down, told him someone else probably needed it more.

Still, the offer made my day
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78647316


Maybe he came to the sobering realization he's making way too much money to be preaching the word of God. Churches should be helping the poor not buying houses for elders, but that's my opinion. Good of him to offer anyway.

Fuck yea, what a great world if we could all pay it forward just a little bit fucking more.

Let's remember that there are people everywhere making sacrifices for each other and being responsible for their neighbors well being. Let's not forget that underneath all the arguing, we all want the best for each other, even if we disagree on how to get there.

Seems to be the trend...women 70%, men 30%, when I've done it I was already buying a single woman with child's stuff anyhow.

Lol paying it backwards or forwards for eternity is just delaying the end man going without. Unless it keeps moving, theoretically at least one person at any time is eating free.

Re: I expected the worst today when I went grocery shopping
Good, it's great to hear of a kind act.

When I went to the supermarket yesterday, I was shocked to see a queue of (guessing) 100 or so outside, and resigned myself to forget it, as having arthritis in my spine and a recently broken ankle, I just could not stand for that long to get in.

The people at the front of the queue overheard me asking the staff policing entry whether they have a time dedicated for disabled shoppers, and they invited me to stand in front of them, which I gratefully accepted.

The last time I shopped, I let a confused & angry old bloke take my place in the queue for the till, despite feeling like I was ready to drop.

Just small kindnesses help make a difference, and I know there are people out there who still care for each other, so the horrible bastards haven't taken over.
Love
by Sir Walter Scott

In peace, Love tunes the shepherd’s reed;

In war, he mounts the warrior’s steed;

In halls, in gay attire is seen;

In hamlets, dances on the green.

Love rules the court, the camp, the grove,

And men below and saints above;

For love is heaven, and heaven is love.

This happened to me last Thanksgiving. I cried like a baby. Both my parents had died not long before and I was an emotional wreck. I asked the lady why she chose me and she said it was just a feeling that I needed something good to happen for me.

One time I gave a little girl a quarter for the bubble gum machine and she said "thank you mister." I said, "no problem." I then told her a joke. I asked "What's the most effective way to remove sticky chewing gum from your hair?" She said, "I don't know." I replied "Cancer!" She started crying. Long story short, she had cancer.
