Dear LPG,
One day, about a week before Christmas, I went shopping and had already bought a few things. I was already carrying a bag of shopping when I got to Iceland, but there were more items on my list. I did my usual tour of the shop and having checked-out; I organised this shopping. I took the previously filled bag out of my shopping trolley. I packed the items I purchased from Iceland in another bag but left the first one on the floor by the trolleys.

It was really wet and dreary, and on such a chaotic day, while I juggled bags and an umbrella, I got home before I realised what had happened: I had left one bag in the shop! I don’t live too far away and I hurriedly went back, but when I reached the spot where I had left it, it was not there! Resigned to the fact that my first shopping bag was gone forever, I asked a member of staff, who was stacking shelves at the time, if anyone had handed it in. He asked for a description of the bag and the items that were in it and left what he was doing. He returned, in a few minutes with the bag.

I was so relieved to have the bag back that I didn’t even ask the young man his name and though I have been to Iceland since I have not seen him again.

I have contacted Iceland to say thank you to that nameless member of staff and want to thank the Catford shopping-public for their honesty.
So you see, not all is bad and perhaps we should be grateful for God’s small miracles; the ones we often don’t remember to acknowledge...

Once again, I would like to say “Thank you so much Iceland”
