My friends and I recently returned from our annual week at the beach. While we were there,a couple of us needed to pick up a few items at the grocery store.

As we were checking out,the cashier complimented me on my necklace. I thanked her,and she asked where I bought it. I had got it at the department store just down the street,and told her that it was on sale for 40% off. My friend suggested that she should walk over and purchase one during her break. But the cashier said she couldn't afford it right now.

As we left the grocery store,I told my friend I planned to buy one for her. She agreed,and offered to pay for half. So we went back to the depart?ment store and picked out a matching necklace for the cashier. As we paid for it,the sales lady noticed that I was wearing the same one. "You must really like this necklace," she commented.

We told her who we were buying it for,and after it was gift-wrapped,we addressed it to the cashier at the grocery store,since I remembered it from her name tag.

To our surprise,the sales lady knew her!

"She is a very sweet lady," she remarked, "but she is going through a rough patch right now and has to drive a long way to work. With gas prices so high,it sure isn't easy.” With excitement,we took the gift back to the grocery store and stood in line at the same cash register. When our time came we just handed her the gift. She knew immediately what we had done and was so thankful.

I grew up poor,with a single mother and two sisters. We had no help from our dad,and I never dreamed as a little girl that I would be able to help others.
