Thank you to Lady in Costco
I’d like to say a big thank you to the kind hearted lady in Costco Tuesday afternoon. My husband was buying fruit for our children when his debit card was declined. Since Costco doesn’t take credit cards he went to the atm to try and pull out cash but was declined as well.
He was going to leave when a woman came up to him and gave him money to pay for the food. He tried saying no thank you, we’ll manage but she insisted and we were able to buy the food. It brought tears to my eyes when I heard this.
We’ve always managed to get by but funds are really tight right now and this little gesture helped out a lot. We will definitely pay it forward when our financial situation is better!

This is something I did the other day in the mall… these younger kids were at ardenes buying stuff and when they went to cash out were short quite a bit… they looked really hurt, as they were trying to buy stuff to dress up…. I told them to keep their money and I paid for it… they were super respectful and thanked me numerous times… I definitely would lend a hand when I can to someone in need… Thank you to other kind people who care! It is refreshing!
Love to hear this stuff and that there is kindness in our city ♥️ bless you
Awe Sudbury really has some amazing individuals ❤️❤️
Costco accepts MasterCard
Jennifer Henri that’s not the point.
Jacqueline Jacquelyn just i
They may have visa not mastercard
Ashley Provincial may only have a visa
Isnt that what i basically said?
Ashley Provincial Master Card. Viza is ONLY in the US warehouses. Online you can use both, but in stores in Canada, Master Card is the only card they accept. They do have a free annual fee Capital One Master Card that members can apply for. You earn up to 3%. I average $300 a yr back. 🙂
Amazing to hear 🙂
maybe he went shopping and didn’t realize he didn’t have enough in his account and that why it was declined….if you are even a penny off it will get declined……doesn’t mean they went shopping with no money lol it means that they didn’t have enough in the account to pay for everything…..He probably feel foolish trying so many times and that someone was nice enough to help him out because they may have had been in their shoes one day and decided to help out as well…..just glad that they were able to get the food for their kids…..
and really, sometime we buy random things that we forget about. It’s human nature to make errors sometimes. In the end, it wasn’t expected, but very much a nice gesture. 🙂
yes this is true it is human nature to forget but its still nice to see that there are ppl out there who still give a helping hand when someone needs it…..
Finally, something not moronic happening in this town.
That was very nice of her!!

I had a sweet lady and her husband give my boys some change at the candy store a few weeks ago. Such a sweet gesture from a kind stranger. There are still good people here and my faith in humanity is slowly being restored. <3 Shout out to the Candy store lady that shared her dollars with my boys. Thank you so kindly. 🙂

Bonnie Mack you can use any MasterCard.
ANY master card is accepted, providing the name on the master card matches the name of the member. The costco Capital one is offered free to members as an option to have one and not have to pay an annual fee on a credit card.. and you earn money back. I average $300/yr back with mine.

Cammi Bergeron just who we are
WAS IT REALLY?! That, I can definitely believe!❤
Reading this warms my heart. Hope someone does something nice for her in return.
How kind of her … and very sweet of you to post this so she’ll know how much her generosity and kindness meant to you.
It’s such a wonderful gift to be kind …thank you to her from me too.
It is soooo good to sit here reading something good this old world is so bad anymore but there still is some good ones left.
Costco does take MasterCard if you have one. It is nice to hear there are good people in the world.
As a Costco employee, I can honestly say we have amazing members. You would be shocked to know how often phones, purses, wallets, cash, etc. gets turned in. Often my faith in humanity comes from our members and their honesty, and respect towards others. The average are pretty awesome. 🙂
yes as i like shopping at costco because the people and staff are friendly…..
In this day and age it’s heartwarming to hear stories like this. Thank God for kind people who have compassion and show kindness to strangers. Wonderful story.
Haha yeah they are kinda pompous with their driving and behaviour but they do stuff like that. You should see what my grandparents do! Jesus they don’t let anyone know about it – they keep it anonymous because they don’t want the attention – but I have the records and accolades. When they’re gone the will know just who they really were.
This is such an amazing story to hear of someones generosity..there are still alot of kind hearted people in this world..a big thank you to the lady that was so generous..I hope that things like that bring happiness to your soul❤❤❤
Makes me believe there are still good people in this world
Im sure it happens.. people dont check their balance all the time
There is good people left in this world
Well done.
Love ppl like this
Paul Kingsbury if only there were more ❤
