Unexpected gift from a stranger


This gem came in from Bryonie:

I was the recipient of a random act of kindness the other day. My Fitbit strap broke on Friday night and as I need the watch part for work and I like to know my step count each day, I decided I would have to go and buy a new one before work on Saturday. There was one strap left and it was $50! I was a bit surprised at how expensive it was, but needed it, so I lined up to buy it.

The guy in front of me completed his purchase and then turned to me and said, “Are you spending more than $50?’ I said, “I’m actually spending exactly $50”, and he gave me a $50 voucher! So I got a free Fitbit strap, which was a lovely start to the day.

I happened to have a $20 supermarket voucher on me, so I went to the supermarket and gave it to a lady who was going in to do her shopping. She looked at me like I was a weirdo!
