So, I was at my local grocery store today.
Had to pop in to get some essentials...potatoes, onions, and a bottle of wine.
At checkout there were 2 cashier's on. One line had a couple of large orders to process, so I went to the '15 items or less' checkout. In front of me were 2 people, middle aged woman and what I assumed might be her mother. The older lady tried a couple of cards that didn't work and then she started rummaging through her pocketbook trying to find the cash to pay. This went on for about 5 minutes. The line behind me was growing...
So I glanced up at the register screen and saw the bill was $37.52. I asked the lady....would you mind if I paid this for you? She was pretty taken aback, but was very appreciative. After they departed, the cashier says, that was a nice thing to do. I said, I can always use some positive karma points. Got a chuckle from the guy.
Anyways, it really kind of made my day a little better.

2. How very generous of you!
DU is populated with kind people.
The benefit and karma you received is worth much more than $37.52.
Well done.
Where is my sick bag...

I'd give the DUmmy a bitchslap if I could, not because he paid for the groceries, but for telling everyone he did

Almost as bad as the DUmmie who left the groceries in his car only to come back after someone had smashed his window in and was running away with the groceries.
He nodded his head in approval knowing that that poor soul probably needed them more than him. Couldn't wait to get home and tell fellow DUmmies. :o

Very insensitive of you to just assume they were women. Why didn't you display your performative woke-ness and ask what their gender pronouns were?

Do you think the DUmmie would have done the same if the poor woman was wearing a MAGA hat?
Hmmm...

There was a wise guy many DUpipo hate who, ~2000 years ago, said that acts of charity should be so private that the giver's left hand shouldn't know what the right hand did.

JHC, do these people ever tire of tooting their own horns, seeking validation?
Never have I lent someone a helping hand and then went on to broadcast it to the public. It's just narcissistic and unseemly.

You, of course, know that not one word in that fable of lies is true?
