A random act of kindness

Caroline from Central Whangarei

I want to thank a woman today at the Growers Market. I was trying to buy some strawberries, but must have taken the $20 out of my wallet already, so I only had $5 - not enough. The man was happy to use the eftpos for the needed $10 but he couldn't get it to work, so the woman beside me reached across and said "Here. Have this $10"!!!! Wow I was blown away. How wonderful in this time of bad things happening, that someone completely unknown to me, pays for my strawberries. I hastily gave her the lonely $5. If you are this woman - "Thank you for making my day so much better."
