My grandma was the cheapest woman in the world. After she passed away, I inherited a $50 gift card.
I was going to give it away, but for some reason, I decided to use it. My life split into ‘before’ and ‘after’ that moment.
The cashier’s face went pale when I handed her the card.
Cashier: ‘This can’t be, where did you get this??’
Me: ‘Uh… It was my grandma’s.’
Cashier: ‘STOP EVERYONE! IN FRONT OF US!’
The world seemed to freeze. Conversations halted, carts stopped rolling, and a heavy silence fell over the store.
My heart started to pound in my chest. People around me stared, their expressions ranging from curious to confused. I gripped the counter, unsure whether to stay or bolt out the door.
