Tabasco PIN RAOK Giveaway - with my own little twist :)

Hi all!

I was lucky enough to score a Tabasco sample kit, and it just arrived in the mail. I would like to RAOK the pins (I have 9, because I gave one to a friend).

If you would like a pin, all you have to do is post in this thread. Tell me a Random Act Of Kindness that you have done for someone lately. In about a week, I will randomly draw 9 post #'s, and will PM each of those posters a pin. Multiple entries are fine (encouraged, actually, as that means you're performing multiple acts of kindness!), but you can only win one pin, because contest rules are one pin per person/household.

To start off the RAOK stories: I bought my co-worker pizza for lunch the other day just for the heck of it :)

:flowers: So get out there and do something nice for someone... Hold a door for someone who has their arms full, pay for the person behind you in the drivethrough, tell that person passing you on the sidewalk that their dog is cute, be creative! Just spread the happiness! :flowers:

I went to pick up our pizza order the other day, and there was a gentleman there who seemed a bit down on his luck, and was counting out his pennies to pay for his slice. I paid for his slice, plus and additional one, and I got the most wonderful smile and thank you in return :) It was awesome!

RAOF - My friend really need my help seeing that I am ill she wouldn't ask. So I lent her money to help her out.

About a week ago I was in shoppers down the street from my house and I recognized a lady from my building struggling with her purchases and her walker. I carried her bags for her back to our building and brought them right to her door, with 2 small kids in tow. She was very thankful and told me it's rare to find good people anymore, especially in TO. I have seen her on the elevator a few times since, and she always says hello, and has a big smile. That makes my day.

RAOK: Every single day that there is a new giveaway I let my facebook group know of it and help some people who are working or not at home get the giveaway. On the new P&G boxes I actually successfully signed up 15 different people so everyone could get samples :) I try.

I sign up all my friends and family for all the freebies on this site. Now everyone love to see whats in the mail. It is nice to put a smile on peoples faces.

I sent away a couple trades over the past two weeks and put in some extras in their envies :)

A generous person on SC, RAOK me a BOGO cineplex movie pass, I was going to use it, then my circumstances changed so I decided to give it to my daughter and her husband so they could have a date night out and I would watch their 4 kids for them.

Oh...this could be fun. As far as RAOK...well lets see to date this year I have sent out 117 envies to people on here. Last week, my envies went to KK7, PattySmyth, Chickypoodles, TaraF, Lynn49, Ashokia and I can't remember the others off the top of my head. Next weeks envie's are ready to go out, 6 of them.

As for other RAOK, I won;t go into details, but lets just say I'm happy and I know I will be in a pleasant place one day :)

my secret Roak- there is a family in our neighbourhood who can't afford to have their kitten taken to the vet, no shots, no spay/neutering. We phoned our vet and left our credit card on file and had them contact the person to arrange for "free" services with them. The really nice thing is watching our neighbours kids enjoy the now healthy cat. They have never taken advantage of it and go once a year for check-ups. The vet now gives us a discount for being nice (their own little ROAK).

Ya I'm a sucker for kittens and kids....

Great stories so far, everyone! Doesn't it feel great to do something for someone out of the goodness of your heart?

A friend of my sister's got interested in my savings in order to help herself out. I sent her all the coupons sites and SC and my TL of coupons. Told her to make a list and I'll give her anything I can.

My last RAOK - I was having a really stress free day and went through the tim hortons drive thru and when I went to pay for my 2.00 order I gave the girl 25 dollars and told her to pay for the next few orders in line.

wow nice one aimee

Bump :)

:) My RAOK is every sale I picked up this week, I left at least one extra coupon for the someone else to score the same great deals as me!! I'm trying to educate them, one at a time:lolsign:

I sent a raok to somone who was looking for pedigree food coupons for their local animal shelter. I love animals so I sent quite a few of them.

last time i was out shopping instead of returning the cart to get the quarter back i just gave it to the person who was walking up to it while trying to hunt down a quarter

Today i sent hubby to work with a case of nestea for him and his co-workers at lunch.. because well it's Friday lol

Bump!

it's always nice to hold open a door for someone when entering and exiting a store!

I took three of my friends out to a carnival and paid their way in. Also gave them tickets to go on rides, bought them lunch and pop.

My kids are grown and left the nest now but I order all the samples and free products,and donate to people I know !

My ROAK was at NoFrills the other day, my mom had asked me to return her "rented" shopping buggy to the stall. Upon doing so, I encountered a man who appeared to be somewhat poor trying frantically to find someone to give him a buggy because he didn't have the quarter. I gave him the one we had "rented" to which he replied, that he would pay it forward. I told him I was happy to help him out. Upon returning to the car, my mom asked for her quarter....so I dug one out of my purse and gave it to her. She is on pension and every penny counts. I didn't just want to give her $$ away :)

Today at the grocery store the line up was ridiculous! There were only 2 cash lanes open side by side with 5 people in each lane waiting. While in the line up I skimmed peoples carts/baskets for items I had coupons for. I gave one lady 2x1.00 nutrigrain bars and 1x 1.00 palmolive. A gentleman got 1x1.00 asana yogurt and a coupon for his dog food, another one got an m&m's fpc for the wee guy he had with him who was asking for a treat and an older lady got 2 boxes of tea for the price of 1 with a red rose bogo. I also roaked the sweet cashiers each a Sunny D FPC :) My daughter enjoyed giving the coupons out.

One more bump, and I'll do the random selection tomorrow :)

I ended up getting too many $1 wub2 minute maids coupons through trades and finding a tearpad that finally had some hanging on it. So, I stood for a little while at my local no frills handing them out to anyone who was purchasing the minute maids. It felt good to make many people excited about getting free minute maid :)
