Illinoismom Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 (edited) So I posted a snip of this in the dead deals but not many go there. There was a deal for a zen Mp3 player at toys r us for 15 and change that I wanted to get for my daughter she had wanted an I-pod and that this year wasnt going to happen, So I go on the web site go all the way through only to hit sumit payment to be told they were OOS. I wasn't the only one to miss out, Then out of the blue a member Pm me and askes if I still wanted one as she had an extra she had ordered. I said yes very much so. She asked for my address and I asked her where to send the payment she said no she didnt want anything, she had saved so much on this site that she was happy to do this, I asked several more times about sending payment and every time she said no. Now I am not use to people being this way as I am the one who many of times will do what she did and I just couldnt believe that there was this person out there who wanted to do something nice and not want nothing in return. Well the MP3 came today and I was so excited, So I wanted to thank her again and let you all know that there truely are great people here, Edited December 10, 2008 by Illinoismom spelling

buckaboo21 Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 So nice to see there are still sweet people in the world
jeninpa Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 Another reason I love this site, I have seen many acts of kindness on here!
dmmiller Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 thats really great! :) Glad to see there are still nice generous people out in the world.
frmgrl Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 What a great story! What a great person! I just got all warm and fuzzy! Thanks for sharing!
elena_398 Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 What a wonderful person. Its not often nowadays to get a person to do something for nothing in return. Just affirms what a great bunch of guys and gals we have on Gottadeal.
ehstrojette Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 That is great. Nice to see good people this time of year
mom2maddynsky27 Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 glad you got the mp3 player :) and kudo's to the person who was kind enough to do that.
racerfan Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 Thats what makes us all so special. I love this family. Thanks you for your random act of kindness
conj Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 yup, it is a wonderful place and here is the thing... it wasn't random... random is picking up the tab for a stranger. this was someone who was grateful to GD, and probably knew you were a wonderful member who was always helpful to others.... this was Karma.
hockeyfanamo Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 That was a fantastic warm fuzzy story! I'm glad that you were able to get the mp3 and thankful that there are people who are in the spirit of the season.
becca0884 Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 What a wonderful thing for someone to do.
jstluvem Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 pay it forward.....there are alot of wonderful people on this site.....that makes me enjoy coming on here even more...
natasha Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 What a wonderful person! Glad you were able to get the MP3 player.
Grassy Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 I agree. A member offered some baby cereal and formula on the beg/give forum. I contacted her, and she still had them. I wanted to pay her for the shipping, but she said the same thing. "No-I've gotten so many deals on this site-this will be a little way of giving back." Within a week, a big box arrived of 4 boxes of baby cereal, and 2 tubs of formula. The box showed that it cost over 10.00 for her to ship it to me. I couldn't believe how thoughtful that was....not only just to GIVE away the baby stuff, but it COST her money to give it away. So I couldn't agree more..... GD is the best. :)
sunni0913 Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 It is great to know there are still some caring people in this world. This is why I love Gottadeal!!
ohitsunshine Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 Aww that is great! So good to know there are still people like this out there.
