The customer was extremely grateful for Pamela’s act of kindness, and she later returned to the store to pay her back, along with a card to say thank you.

Pamela said she was more than happy to help someone who was in some distress.

“I noticed the customer looked worried at the checkouts and when I realised she had forgotten her purse, I didn’t want her to leave the store without getting what she needed," Pamela said.

"It’s really nice to be there for our customers whenever they need it, and I was more than happy to help."

Stephen Cox, Service Section Manager at Asda Omagh, said Pamela is well-known for going above and beyond for those that come into the supermarket.
