WAKE FOREST, N.C. -- A Wake Forest woman is asking the community for help in finding the woman who helped her while at a Wal-Mart check out.

  • A Wake Forest woman is looking for the good samaritan who helped her at Walmart.
  • She was checking out and a woman she did not know handed her a $20.
  • Hutchison wants to thank her. 

Ariel Hutchison was only buying baby wipes, bubbles, and crackers but says the interaction changed her perspective.

While at the register, she dug through her purse to find change which she eventually did but the woman still handed her $20 saying 'We've all been there. I've been there.'

"I wanted to do something to reach out to her and hopefully get a hold of her and let her know just how special that moment was. And how much she helped us out just to kind of have that little bit to fall back on because that was gas for my husband to get to work, you know for him to be able to get there so he could do what he does to make us money so we can survive," Hutchison says.

If she were to find her she says "I would definitely let her know that these two children she helped so much and me she helped so much."
