Spontaneous Act of Giving

--by cabbage, posted Mar 7, 2011

We were shopping at Target (a big shope) and on our way out, when we were in the parking lot, I saw a young woman with a child, asking for money for food. I have no idea what her situation was, but I gave her some money and carried on to my car.

As I got in, I suddenly realized that I had just been given a $5.00 Target coupon by the cashier because of some purchase I had made, so I ran back to the lady and gave her the card so that hopefully, she could buy something in the store with the coupon.

I have no idea what happened later, but I hope it helped her in some way.
