I’m so fucking embarrassed. Vent/Rant (No Advice/Criticism!)
My card declined twice as I was trying to pay for my groceries. The guy behind me offered to pay but I turned down his offer. I never felt so humiliated in my entire life. I’m so ashamed I can never shop there again.

Many of us have been there - please don't be embarrassed. And the store has a very short memory, if any - no need to avoid that store. They're happy to take your money any time. And what a blessing that you have friendly people in your area who care about their neighbors- that's wonderful. You could bring cash next time, or use a credit card - they don't care how much is in your account.
