Kind stranger pays for elderly woman’s groceries
A Coles supermarket on the New South Wales Central Coast has become the scene of a beautiful act of kindness, after a man stepped in to pay for an elderly stranger’s groceries. The woman, whose card was declined at the checkout, assured the man she would pay him back but the good Samaritan refused.
“This guy at Wyoming Coles who just went through the register with his two kids paid for this lady’s groceries when her card kept declining,” Luke, a witness who captured heart-warming moment, wrote on Twitter. “She wanted to pay him back eventually and he just said, ‘Don't worry, have a good day.’”
Hundreds liked and retweeted the story, dubbing the kind gentleman as an “absolute champion”. “Should be more people like him in this world,” one Twitter user wrote. “If we all knew how to give, think of how amazing life would be?”
It just goes to show, there is certainly still some good out there in the world. Tell us in the comments below, have you ever witnessed an act of such generosity by a stranger before?
