The first occasion was in my local supermarket late one very hot afternoon. I was extremely tired and just wanted to get the shopping over abd done with, so I could get home and put my feet up
At the checkout, my cash flow card declined. I then realised I had the dates mixed up and the money was due into my account the following day .
Tiredly, I explained to the checkout operator that because I had left ny phone at home, I would need to shoot home and move a little money into that account, then return for my small bundle of groceries.
As I walked away, she called out "It's OK, it's sorted" .
A complete stranger had used his card to pay my account He even asked me if I had bought everything that I needed at that time. I was so overcome and grateful It was not a lot of money by some standards but his kindness and caring concern for my welfare was humbling.
This afternoon, in a city supermarket, I had overpurchased for the amount of money in my account at that time - tiredness again was a factor and a health issue, causing pain in my feet and ankles.
I managed to pull out quite a few of the dearer items and had almost reduced the bill down very close to what was required.
At this point, a lady gave the checkout operator a $20 note to settle the bill "Oh no", I protested " I will just take a few more items out"
She would not hear of it. Once again, I was thunderstruck by kindness from a stranger.
I am an ex JAFA. Whatever is in the water here, it is beautiful.
