Day 29 - A smile and a dollar
Turns out I ended this cycle of giving in a simple way. I saw a Salvation Army volunteer sitting outside a supermarket, looking absolutely fagged with a drawn face. I caught her eye and grinned. Her face lit up.
Later, I tipped the Walmart employee who helped me bring purchases to the car. It was only a dollar, but he gladly put it in his pocket.
Turns out simple gifts are also a good way to end this challenge.

Amazing, if simple gives gives, the kind of things I'm always looking for as I go through my day, though some days it seems I see them more easily than others. Congratulations on completing the challenge!
