As individuals, we might not have the power or resources to drop huge amounts of cash on needy, unsuspecting people. The thought of handing someone in dire straights a couple of hundred dollars is a lovely idea, but it’s not in the stars for most ordinary folk.
But a group of ordinary people might just be able to make the magic happen.
Tabatha Adams of Cincinnati, Ohio, was one of those people who rounded up some friends to make one woman’s Christmas extra cheery.
A single mom, Adams wanted to bless someone who could use the blessing, and so she and her crew decided to participate in “Shock and Claus.”
“I don’t know if you have seen Shock and Clause,” Adams posted on Facebook. “What is ‘Shock and Clause’? We meet for breakfast, you must bring a $100 Bill, we eat and pay the bill and the rest is a tip.”
“So if 10 go, that is a $1,000 and the bill is $150, the tip is $850. We trust the Universe to take us to the right person to be blessed.”
“I think with your broadcasting capabilities you could start a firestorm of people being blessed,” Adams concluded. “I recommend the total dives where the average tip is $5 or so.”
She had her cause, and she pinpointed her target: Mikia, a waitress at a nearby Waffle House.
“What 10 peeps will join me at Waffle House in Glendale!?!” she wrote on Facebook, sending out the call to meet her at a restaurant on Springfield Pike in the suburb north of Cincinnati. “Let’s set a date next week!!!! Who is in???”
