Today I was standing in line at a small local food store near the University. In front of me was an elderly lady with like 40 items, this wasn't a problem for me I'm generally an extremely patient guy. I was holding a Hungry Man meal and two bananas in my hand and was 2nd in line (The store only had one cash register) the elderly lady in front of me noticed me and gave me a 5 dollar bill. Yeah I she was paying for her items with cash and in the middle of the payment she also put a 5 dollar bill on top of my items.
I was shocked, for a moment I was looking around trying to figure out whats going on. But then figured a "thank you" is in order. Then I though she figured out I was a student when she saw my small laptop bag with my binder inside it and must have felt sorry for me.
(I don't like people feeling sorry for me).
The bill covered my items and I still had like 45 cents left.
I don't know who you are, chances are you wont read this, but ... thank you.

OP
This wasn't the first time either, one a late night in 2011 Winter, I got back from the daily 45 km drive to University I stopped for gas. After pumping it I realized I don't have enough money so I called home to my mom who was just down the street, but some random guy just payed for 35 bucks worth of gas. "Pay it forward." he said and left. My mom arrived and I told her she couldn't believe it either.

Wow. I'm honestly shocked. I often don't hear anything like this. Well, that's great to hear.
