Pay It Forward

Amy was between classes and decided to get her last book that is needed this semester. On the way to the bookstore, she saw a lady carrying many items and getting close to the entrance. Seeing that she would have an issue, Amy sped around her and opened the door for her. They lady was appreciative in saying "thank you" and Amy opened the second door which was also met with a thank you.

Amy saw the lady that she helped in the bookstore on a number of occasions during this trip and was exchanging pleasantries. Then the question came, "Are you going to be buying a book today?". Amy told her that she was indeed getting a book. The lady proceeded to tell Amy that she was legally blind and receives 50% off coupons for text books. For those that she doesn't use, she is to send back. There isn't any tracking on how many she uses, etc. and noted that Amy was very nice in helping her and seemed like a nice person, so she wanted to return a favor. The lady asked if Amy had cash (hee hee, for those that know Amy...) and of course she said, no, but there is an ATM around the corner and that she could get some. The lady said okay and went and paid for the book while Amy went to the ATM. Amy waited while the helpful lady got the book and the exchange was made. A big thank you goes out to whoever this mysterious lady is.
