Teen Cashier Praised for Picking up Struggling Woman’s Grocery Tab

A Texas teenager has gone viral for all the right reasons after a Facebook user caught him paying the grocery bill for a struggling mom.

The 19-year-old cashier, whose name is John Lopez, Jr., was working at the Princeton, Texas Walmart in order to save money for college, according to KTVT-TV.

A customer named Laci Simms, who shared the story on her Facebook, was in Lopez’s line when she noticed that a woman in line in front of her was “in obvious distress about her inability to pay” for her bill. According to Simms, Lopez stepped in and volunteered to pay the woman’s bill himself.

As of the writing of this article, the Facebook post had been shared over 3,000 times.
