Hello all,
Just curious what random acts of kindness you’ve been doing lately or have been done to you. I am looking for suggestions on other things I can try. Keep in mind, I don’t have a lot of money so these acts can’t involve a lot of money.
A few I’ve been doing lately include, in no particular order:
– Donating time at a food pantry filling orders and helping to load food in the person’s vehicle, if they have one. If not, I help make sure their bags are sturdy if they are catching a bus or on foot.
– If sitting in my car waiting temporarily behind non-moving traffic and I notice a car wanting to enter onto the street from a business or something, I often make room between my car and the one in front of me to let the person enter on to the street.

- Today I went grocery shopping at a local grocery store (Aldi), where you have to put a quarter into a slot to get a cart, and you get it back when you are finished and hook the cart back up. I gave my cart to an old man who looked like he could use a break and thereby forfeited getting my quarter back.
– Made a pot of coffee this morning for my wife without her asking. She loves coffee and wasn’t feeling well. I don’t like coffee, unless you are talking about the smell of it, lol.
– My wife likes to offer to pay for the dinner of military personnel on those rare times when we dine out as an appreciation for their service. Thank goodness we don’t live near a military base or we’d be living under a bridge overpass or something.
– I was once on the receiving end of someone in front of me whom I didn’t know pay for my order at a fast food restaurant drive-thru.

Fetching groceries for shorter people is another opportunity.
