It’s all a crock

So if someone loses/breaks a favorite thing, not an expensive thing at all but with consternation because they really liked it and it’s not made anymore–and you can do something about it, I wonder: after jumping through the hoops to have something sent to someone else’s house on a different person/address’s credit card, does the packing slip give you away? Does the credit card company?

Because in these days of isolation and missing people, to be able to make that right and anticipate the surprise just felt so good. And it was enough.

I know, I know, writing about it here kind of misses the point there but it’s way more fun than talking about oh hey I patched up that divot in the yard I tripped and went splat over yesterday.

It depends–if they had a box for “is this a gift?” and you checked it, then no, they get a coded gift receipt; but if not, then yes you will
usually be found out from the invoice…but still, a good deed.

It really depends, but it’s a nice thing to do!
