Pay it Forward

Anyone seen the movie Pay it Forward? Ever since I saw that movie a number of years ago, I'm always thinking about doing small little acts of kindness to others and I have found one that I continually do everyother weekend when I hit ALDI for groceries. I am an Aldi shopper and darn proud of it, it's a great grocery store, where prices are low and services is great! However, If you shop there you know that you better have your quater with you for the cart. I must say this ticked me off for the longest time, but think about it someone was really thinking, no carts in the parking lot to back into, the company doesn't have to pay an employee to go get the carts and return them to the building etc. etc. So, you might be asking what this has to do with paying it forward. WELL, when I get to ALDI's I get my cart with .25 do my shopping, check out, bag my things, load them in the van, AND... I give my cart to another shopper coming in the store and as they stat to hand me their quater I say oh just keep your money but PLEASE pass this cart onto the next shopper!

SO, I challenge you if you read my blog to PAY IT FORWARD, or do alittle act of kindness for someone. You will feel good about what you did and I guarantee you'll make somebodies day!
