My 14year old son and I stood in the electronics section of a Walmart on a busy holiday shopping day doing something you’ve probably read about often, but was a first for me… paying off random strangers’ layaway accounts. It was 8:40 a.m. on a Saturday morning. Things were going fast. They had two registers running, bringing up and clearing accounts with practiced efficiency. The average balance was around $250, and as I was doing the math on how far I wanted to take this, a figure popped up that brought everything to a stop.
