The "Paying for People's Groceries" video features customers lining up to pay for their groceries and then getting surprised by the cashier who tells them that they are the winners of free groceries for that day. At first, the customers don't believe it and most of them think it's a joke, until they are reassured that it is indeed real and that they won't have to pay a dime for their groceries.

The lucky customers were very thankful, which is in line with Hales and Gungho's goal of honoring Thanksgiving.

The "Paying for People's Groceries" video is touching and has struck a chord with its numerous viewers who shared the customers' happiness. Some of them wished that they were the ones who won instead. And, some just wanted to share it with their friends, colleagues and loved ones to spread the Thanksgiving cheer, hoping that it will infect other people as well as inspire them to do a selfless act such as giving without expecting anything in return.
