Just wanted to "spot" Tara who was working at the Post Office in the Shoppers Drug Mart on Banwell & Tecumseh Rd. on Friday evening. Tara was very friendly and went above and beyond to help me with a package. It's always nice to receive excellent customer service.

Today I took my Grandmother to get a bill fixed for her cellphone. There were many problems that occurred and unfortunately I had to go quite high up to get things resolved on the phone. The entire time we were nothing but catered to by Carline and (I'm sorry I didn't get your name) the manager. They both worked SO hard and went above and beyond to assist us! They really restored my faith in humanity! Thank you thank you thank you!
I was shopping at the East End Value Village looking for books for my six month old daughter. I came across one titled "There's a Mouse In My House". On the inside cover is written "To Alex & Spencer , Love Mommy & Daddy Oct/ 98" ... The book looked cute but it was the handwritten note taped onto the inside cover that was the deciding factor in my purchase. The note read:
This book brought me a lot of joy & memories. Sitting with my Mom in her bed, listening to her read. It was a favourite for both of us. I hope you enjoy it as much as we have. -Spencer
How incredibly sweet and how could I not buy this book for my own daughter to share with. She is a bit young for it now but in a few years I hope to share it with her & I hope that reading to her in my own bed will be as joyous of a memory for her as it was for you. Thank you for sharing your story with us!

I want to acknowledge all of the kind people that pulled over to the side of the road, as my Father-in-laws procession from Marcottes Funeral Home in Tecumseh to the cemetery was passing by you, Your act of respect did not go unnoticed, Thank You
To the person that paid for my order at the Tim Hortons yesterday morning at the now torn down racetrack...Thank you. I have had an awful week needing to repair my vehicle and replace my AC unit. Your kindness and generosity certainly put a positive spin on my day. You have been spotted
Tuesday at 5:40am I had trouble sleeping so I decided to go for a jog/ walk down to the river. I have had a lot of things on my mind and figured this would help me clear my head. As I slowly approached parent and riverside I noticed another runner in front of me heading the same way. I slowly approached her and noticed the back of her shirt. "Never give up, there is always something good coming." Wow, that alone made this run worth it. We continued to run along side each other after giving each other a good morning nod. I had my earphones in listening to music as did she. I would slow down and take a step back just to read her shirt again every little bit. At one point I ended up stopping so I could turn and head back home. I got her attention and said the words "thank you" she waved back and continued running. I stopped and stared at the back of her shirt until I couldn't see her anymore. I turned back and headed home. The whole time thinking how amazing it was that she was wearing a shirt with that quote and it reached me. To that early morning runner, thank you for inspiring me and making me realize, there are better days ahead. I was in the right place at the right time. Today I finally found a few shirts with quotes on the back that I ordered. Hoping maybe one day it will help me and maybe someone behind me at any point.
