Paid for someone's groceries when they were short a few bucks. Was only a few things. They and the cashier knew but I didn't go around sayin
Beezlebubble
I did it. They looked panicked and worried, so I stuck my card in the card reader without a second thought.

I’ve been to parties where kids didn’t show. You never forget that.

A few years ago I'd gotten my student loan on the same day I went to visit a friend in Cardiff. There was a big Christmas Market in the city
yourlocalgayfurry
- centre, and a stalls was selling warm pancakes. And there were so many people sleeping in doorways and it was so goddamn cold, so-
yourlocalgayfurry
-I decided to buy pancakes for everyone in all the doorways. I don't remember how much it cost but they were all so thankful

Tipped 50$ on a 20$ meal bc a party of jerks let no tips and harassed a new waiter. Got a free drink, so I tipped 20$ on top of it and left
ArcadiaBerger
At the comics and cards shop, a kid was short two dollars. I paid it & he was just...wide-eyed. I said, "Do this for someone else sometime."
romagnolimike27
I owned a comic shop for ten years and never let something like this happen for any regular or young kid obviously of lesser means.
JayAdan
That makes it sound like you would stop people from giving money to others. lol

I once drove a man and his daughter home for 50km after seeing him hand money to a beggar.

Any time I go to McDonalds for breakfast I pay for the car behind me, too, no matter what car they're driving or what they ordered.

I pulled in behind a car in a parking lot that said sober and couldnt be happier. The guy was getting out too. I asked ifvit was his car 1
Poolboy77
2. He said yes. Shook his hand and gave him a hug for staying sober. He cried, said a stranger has never told him anything before.

Saved a ~8 year old girl from drowning in our local pool. After I pulled her out the guard took over. I didn't leave any contact info.

When an imgurian posts about financial problems, I send them money. It might be naïve, but I like to think i’m helping.

when working at a thrift store, I would give discounts to ppl who I thought might need it and told them it was discount day when it wasn't
prfesser
As a prof I had a student, early 30s, 3 kids, struggling financially. Sent her an envelope with $250 and a fake return address. Turns [1/2]
prfesser
[2/2] out she needed almost exactly that amount to get her car fixed so she could continue classes. She still doesn't know who sent it.

HiMyNameIsKevinIHaveChangnesia
I had a professor that always brought drinks & snacks to his 4 hr lectures. People like you two keep us going a lot, just so you know.
ColoneISanders
I had a prof that kept a fridge in our lab (we practically lived there most nights) and kept it stocked with soda and hagen-dasz pints.
ColoneISanders
Should mention he didn't have much family or any children so he treated us like family. Sadly passed shortly after retirement.
Datsinginguy
That's a good prof. Thank you for caring.
MyCommentsUsuallyHaveTypos
I grew up super poor & neglected, but always the best student in my classes. My teachers always bought me cake & gave me a birthday party.

I once gave a fellow student like $60 so she could pay for her auto insurance... in exchange for her soul :)

I tape $1 bills to random items at Dollar Tree, (especially toys) figuring if someone picked the item up, they must have wanted it anyway
DiscountMentat
Here I was thinking the manager was making doing inventory more fun by making an Easter egg hunt out of the task.
eebogur
I had a store manager who used to do this to make sure his team leads were doing inventory properly. An item from another department would 1
eebogur
be well hidden somewhere in their department. If done right, it would be found instantly, almost never if done half assed. He used to offer
eebogur
prizes to those who would find the REALLY well hidden items, like gift cards, beverages and attaboy cards, good for a company paid lunch.
Sonicschilidogs
Now you gotta tape a dollar and a quarter mate

I decided to collect clothing for the homeless shelter in December (North East US). I was able to gather over 50 large garbage bags of (1)
NeckCrease
(2) clean and usable clothing, I used a huge van to drive over to the shelter and walked in and said I had donations, they said to bring it
NeckCrease
(3) I replied its 50 bags, they used some poor workers room lol, tried to give me a receipt for tax write-off, I refused it and left
PaulieBold
There was a woman begging for money in front of a store. I went with her inside and got her groceries for a month. She was so shocked she
PaulieBold
Cried all the way. She told me she has two kids and cant afford food for them. I asked if i can hug her and she broke down sobbing saying
hotrodny
I want to be an unknown millionaire and fucking do this all the time, doing good deeds and taking payment in hugs
grumpycatreincarnated
I don’t like to be hugged but the rest me too! Would be so fun to secretly pay off everyone’s bills.
PaulieBold
That she was dirty and smelly. I cried the way home. I didnt win a lot back in that time but i m happy i helped her
Becker37
One done for me. I was 14, had been raped, the one person who I thought cared about me turned out to be a child molester, was in a really
Becker37
Bad place so I tried to kill myself and ended up in a mental hospital. My school books were brought to me with work inside. I open the book
Becker37
And my science teacher had put a card in there and written words of encouragement and how important I am. Wish I still had the card but that
Becker37
Is another shit story. People are weird and awkward sometimes. If you want to really help be a real friend. Hang with them and accept them.
Becker37
Having a friend could be all the difference.

I return my shopping cart to the parking lot corral or back to the front of the store. Screw laziness.
ligmabolz
I've screwed her
iwasmclovin
Probably easier, but less short term fun, than Craziness
Datsinginguy
Do. Not. And I mean this. EVER. Screw Craziness.
clemkevin
Having worked for Trader Joe's for ten years and loving the opportunity to escape the store to do carts, I feel your pride is misdirected.
rbudrick
Unpopular fact: Returns were installed to reduce labor costs by having fewer cart return people. Customers guilted into working for free.
tracereading
Nah, now if you sort out the cart return for the store attendant...
beanman8688
Ever watch Cart Narcs on YouTube? Great channel where they call out people who don't return their carts
mrNobody1337
This is not kindness, it's common decency
LukeLlama
Don’t devalue this as it is apparently hard for a lot of people
ColoneISanders
Unfortunately not so common anymore so sadly it has become the exception (kindness) instead of the norm (common)
ArandomDane
How fare is an acceptable distance, before you also think it is the stores problem for removing return corrals in the parking lot?
FatersGonnaFate
You used the cart, you return the cart. Doesn't matter where you parked.
ArandomDane
So you are totally fine walking past 3 closed off corrals to return at the entrance of a filled 10k car parking?? really? (1/2)
ArandomDane
(2/2) at no point in your 10 mins walk would you consider, they cut personal sorting the corrals to safe some money having you do the work?
ProHead9025
Any day, any time. Leave no trace dude. If I used the cart to take the stuff all the way out to my car. I'm bringing it back.
ProHead9025
It's just the good, wholesome, right thing to do.

I lick the corners of all the pages of random books so that the next person who reads it won’t have to lick their fingers to turn the pages.
