An Asda worker's heart "broke" when she saw a boy approach the till and had to step in to help.
Maureen, who works in the Ellesmere Port store on Grange Road, saw the schoolboy's banking app on his phone wasn't working and he was struggling to pay for some Mother's Day flowers. The boy, who was no older than 14, was disappointed at the prospect of not being able to buy the bouquet after watching other customers do so.
But kind-hearted Maureen stepped in and paid for the flowers herself.
