We are members of a loyalty program at a local food store.

Recently went for a walk and stopped by for takeout.

As we were rung up, the cashier commented on the amount of rewards balance in our account. Did we want to use our points?

Thoughts ran through our heads. Use the points or pay cash? And other thoughts. Will the store survive or will our points become worthless? And then….

They could use the cash now.

We paused... paid cash...and a few points were put on the account. We’ll enjoy the points with family and friends in better days.
