The nicest thing someone's ever done for meIn amongst all the tales of bitterness and poo, we occasionally get fluffy stories that bring a small tear to our internet-jaded eyes.
In celebration of this, what is the nicest thing someone's done for you? Whether you thoroughly deserved it or it came out of the blue, tell us of heartwarming, selfless acts by others.
Failing that, what nice things have you done for other people, whether they liked it or not?

Supermarket basketsMy friend Julia used to pop things into random people's trolleys (supermarket trolleys, not underwear) that they thought they might like. Shampoo for example, or a healthy eating cookbook.
More often than not when they got to the checkout they would look confused, but go ahead and buy the stuff anyway.

There'sa bit in a movie called Cashback which is similar to this, it involves rather phallic deodorant bottles.

"...thought they might like..." and "...a healthy eating cookbook..." - While I agree it's perhaps a nice thing to give someone a hint that they should eat more healthily, surely it's not very nice to give them a book that pretty much says "oi, fatty! Sort it out!"

Sorrybut that would annoy the crap out of me. I don't need some busybody patronisingly putting things I don't want and can't afford into my trolley.
