I mentioned to MacGyver a few weeks back that we were running out of dishwasher soap. He said he had recently bought a box of Finish dishwashing tablets from the Reject Shop. We looked around the house but we could not find the box. After a while, we gave up the search. We returned to the store where he had gotten the first box but found that particular Reject Shop branch was closing so they had very limited items left in the shelf. I proceeded to the other branch located at the opposite end of the mall and got a new box of Finish.
Last week, when I got home, MacGyver said he'd passed by the Reject Shop and the lady at the counter recognised him. She asked if he had (for)gotten a box of Finish from the other Reject Shop branch several weeks back. He mentioned that he did buy a box but could not find it at home. Apparently, this lady was the one that had punched up MacGyver's purchases the last time in the other branch. She had set aside the forgotten bag and when she transferred from the closed branch, she transferred MacGyver's purchase too. It took them a couple of minutes to retrieve the bag but it was worth the wait. Now we have a spare box of Finish at home.
Doesn't this story restore your faith in humanity. There are many honest, helpful people out there.
