Employees at the Hartford Avenue Toys R Us say a “layaway angel” paid for $20,000 worth of layaway items on Wednesday, clearing the entire balance.
The anonymous woman gave the store manager a hug and told employees, “If you have it, give it.” Described as an older woman and a local, she said she would sleep better at night knowing the layaways were covered, the Milford Daily News reported.
More than 150 people received calls Wednesday from Toys R Us employees. As they learned that their gifts had been paid for -- a total of 124 items -- there were tears and cries of astonishment, said Trisha, a longtime employee of the store who asked that her last name be withheld.
“A lot of emotion,” she said. “This is the first time that someone has paid off the entire store.”
A Franklin resident said when Toys R Us called, she thought it was to remove her layaway because she had missed a payment for a $50 purchase of Hot Wheels cars and tracks for her two sons, ages 10 and 11.
“I didn’t believe it,” said Linda, who preferred not to give her last name. “I thought, ‘You have to be kidding me.’ I almost wanted to cry. It was only $50, but that someone would go and do that gave me chills.”
“What they did was so caring and thoughtful,” she added. “I feel like I was part of something special -- touched by an angel.”

WE ARE STILL ALIVE. BARELY. ADMINS WANTED!
Hello fellow deviants!
We're in some deep trouble. :(
As you may have noticed, this group's slowly dying of stagnancy and we need some fresh breeze!
The admin team is on its knees because of too many submissions and to be honest, there's only 2-3 people voting, so they can't do everything by themselves.
What we need right now are competent people who have the time and motivation to help out other photographers and would like to join our team.
If you feel like you could do this and would like help us create a new dynamic team of admins, send us a note and introduce yourself a little. It can be a one simple sentence introduction, if you don
