Store employee refuses to give kid her money back after she is 5 cents short on her purchase, resulting in a dispute with observing customers: ‘Give her the money’

When you are a kid, everything feels like much more of a big deal than what it actually is. For example, accidentally leaving a store without paying for something, and then setting off the alarm can make kids feel like their lives are over. Most of the time, everything turns out fine, but it can still be a rather traumatizing experience for a little kid.

That is why I really felt for the 10-year-old kid in this Reddit story, especially because all that went down was not even her fault. After trying to buy a few items in a local grocery store, the kid realized she was 5 cents short, so she asked another customer if they could help her out. The problem was, that the machine would not accept the customer's card for 5 cents, and they didn't have any cash. The employee at the store refused to help and proceeded to take the items the little kid was trying to buy while also refusing to give her the money back. Luckily, the other customer was ready to fight for the kid's rights.
