Pregnant mum 'can't stop crying' after man's kind supermarket gesture

A heavily pregnant woman was shocked after a complete stranger paid for her shopping and even helped carry it to her door. Courtney Jones was out shopping in Lidl in Daybrook, Nottingham with her children on Tuesday, March 29.

When she got to the checkout, she discovered that her card would not work. The mum faced having to return all her items before heading home to get some cash.

She then would've had to return to the store to pay again, while heavily pregnant and with her young children still in tow. However, before she could do this, she was approached by a good Samaritan who offered to pay for the shopping - which nearly totalled £40 - out of his own pocket.
