Buy One, Get One Free

Places like Walgreens are great places to visit when you need something at the last minute. There happens to be one around the corner from my house on Taylorsville Rd.

I had been researching different supplements to take for my fitness training and saw that taking fish oil can help decrease body fat. So, I threw on my shoes and took the short drive.

If anyone has ever seen the vitamins row, there are probably five different brands of vitamins. The price range varies. I think to myself, are there really that many different types of Vitamin C? Shouldn't all vitamin C's be the same? After standing there looking confused, I decided on a brand \of fish oil pills that was priced in the middle.

I arrived at the front counter with my bottle. The cashier, Susan, scanned the bottle. She then said, "Hold on a second" and scanned the bottle again. I had no clue what she was doing. Then she said, "That's what I thought." She continued to tell me that these vitamins were on sale - buy one, get one free. She put my bottle in a bag and told me I could go back to the vitamin isle to get my other bottle.

I thought this was such a nice, honest caring gesture. When I was in the store I didn't have a "MY Day Made" card with me. Luckily, when I arrived home, I noticed that Susan's name was on top of my receipt. I went back several days later on a day I knew Susan was working. She seemed a little surprised when I walked up to her, but once I explained my reason, a smile beamed across her face. She gave me a great hug and said this was the first time anyone had ever done anything like that for her. It's moments like this that remind me the importance of reminding people that they make a difference!
