How about this. I was in Safeway a couple of months ago when I saw a little girl holding one of those small coupons that are dispensed from machines in the aisles. The machines have flashing LEDs on them and are hugely attractive to children. The girl was looking longingly at the machine but was too short to reach up and grab another coupon (for her other hand) and her mother was busy selecting something from a shelf. As I walked up, I caught the girl's eye, pulled out another coupon and handed it to the her. Neither of us said anything, but there was something satisfying about the moment of communication that occurred. Her mother must have wondered how she got the extra coupon.
