Yesterday as we started our beach walk we saw people carrying sweet potatoes, not a normal Saturday morning activity at Greenmount Beach.
One person commented that they were free and around on the next beach Rainbow Bay.
As I was curious, we then headed off around the path passing more people carrying usually one sweet potatoe in each hand.
What we found was this truck and the sign FREE SWEET POTATOES. WE WOULD RATHER GIVE THEM AWAY THAN THROW
THEM AWAY. Several people commented there should be a tin for a donations.
We didn’t know who the owner was, maybe he or she was sitting on the beach nearby seeing the pleasure everyone was getting from loading up with this sweet Saturday bonanza.
What if more of us gave things away, instead of throwing things that couls still be used into the bin, would that great more Saturday smiles?
What made you smile this week?
Consider joining Lightening’s Smiley Saturday
oh yum now that would certainly have made me smile
We get a lot of joy from giving away the vegies we grow and we found that we always get something back in return, usually when we least expect it but need it!
Cool! I LOVE giveaways. 🙂 Thanks for joining in Smiley Saturday this week. It’s lovely to have you! 🙂
@Sue, Thanks it looks like fun, lets see what we can score at the beach next Saturday, glad I found the thread
@ Kate must come your way sometime- I see you have grateful Friday , as I am into gratitude, will be joining in. I will now see what I can come up with, to create some more link love
Yeah, that’s right! We share the blessings that we have to other people. As what they say, “The more you give, the more you receive”. 😉
This is one of those things I miss about Australia… here in the US… they (sometimes) be a little anal… they would say they couldn’t do this cause then someone would sue you if you got sick… yep, land of the free… ha
