I'm A Single Mom Of 2, And I Started Crying In Walmart Today

By a friend • January 15, 2024

I’m a single mom of 2 kids, and I started crying in Walmart today.

The guy in line behind me overheard me on the phone with my mom talking about what we needed and didn’t need for the possible freeze this weekend, and I put back some stuff because I didn’t get my child support payment and was working with $75 until get paid until the 25th.

I ended up having to run to the fitting room to grab the attendant who had my son’s formula (they keep it under lock and key and an attendant has to hold onto it until you’re ready to check out), and when I got back he had paid for the rest of my groceries- including what I had put back to try and save money.

I said thank you so many times and it didn’t feel like enough; I can’t wait until I’m able to pay if forward for someone else!
