Where I work there was a toys for tots drive. I immediately walked the Christmas cash to the organizers of the event. I figured in today's economy children more than ever need to know Santa is looking out for them. This was more important than a fancy pair of earbuds.

The few times I travel I bring home a gift for my wif, usually jewellry. On this particular trip I found a nice ring on sale at a mall and was about to purchase it when the sales associate said that I could purchase a second item at half price. I really didn't need anything else and was about to complete the transactions when I noticed two young girls buying their mother a birthday present but complaining that it was a bit too expensive. I approached them and asked if they would like to get it at half price. At first they thought I was a scam artist but with the sale's person intervention they ended up believing me. They paid me for their mum's gift at 50% off and I wasn't any poorer for my deed. I hope their mum enjoyed the earrings. A few months ago I was on a business trip in Gaithersburg, MD.
