A Perfectly-Timed Car Tag

--by mightym, posted Jan 22, 2013

My husband and I had won a certificate for the use of a new car for a weekend. We just did not get around to using it, though.

Today, we were at a meeting and out of the blue, my husband said we should offer it to this wonderful lady who does so much for the community. When we stopped her and offered her the certificate, she was absolutely shocked and delighted.

She pulled us over to talk to her husband. They are planning to go away to the mountains this weekend, but her car has bald tires. They did not know if it would survive the drive. She told us she hadn't been sure if they should take the trip, and then we appeared. Not only did she get new tires, she got a new car, even if it is just for a few days!

It is absolutely amazing to me how this worked out with such good timing!
