‘We had to close the store before Christmas’: Local school organizes toy store for families in need with substantial discounts, new customer base ruins it for everyone

Good deeds are a dime a dozen, but this school really gave it its all so that kids would get great Christmas gifts from their parents who did not have a lot of money. Unfortunately, along comes a Grinch, today known as a Karen, and has to ruin it for everyone. In this case, many Karens. Let's start at the beginning… One school used to organize a toy store for families in need, and this store would be stocked to the brim with all kinds of donations. The parents could shop there and get new toys for just one dollar, which was about 99 percent off.

The discounts were amazing, and their sole purpose was to allow poorer families to experience Christmas in a way that they had never experienced. Unfortunately, people who were definitely not poor began taking advantage of the toy store, and word spread fast. Scroll down to read what happened, and then check out this office Karen who tried scoring points with her manager, attempting to get a coworker's phone taken away. What on earth goes on in people's minds… It sure beats me. Enjoy your Thanksgiving…
