Stories of Kindness from Around the World

Generous Act By A Cashier!


--by cabbage, posted Mar 5, 2020
At the Trader Joe's store, I  picked up two sympathy cards to write to my childhood friend's mom and brother, because their dad/husband had just passed away (my friend passed away several years ago). The guy at the register rang up my purchases and asked me who I was "sending comfort" to, and I told him. He did not charge me for the cards, but only for the other purchases, because he said it was for comforting someone and that's how they roll at TJ's. Wow. I thought of getting something nice to surprise him with (flowers, probably) on my way home. That was an unexpected generous act that touched me.
