I had a lady in front of me in the store who had used a gift card already and it left her with a balance of 4 dollars and some change which she didn’t have, it was food for her and her kids. They had already ran the gift card through so they couldn’t remove anything and if they canceled the order it would take 2-3 days for it to appear back on her visa gift card so she couldn’t get groceries. I gave her the 4 dollars and change and she started to cry. I love people.
Made dinner for a family across the street, they just had a baby girl earlier this week 🙂
