As a previous poster stated, God bless you. She needed $20, you had $20 and she paid you back.

Yes, speak with her daughter. Also, you might want to call the elderly affairs department in your town and/or state. If her daughter doesn't step up they may be able to provide her with help from their department: adult day care, medicaltransport and flex rides, etc.

Again, she's lucky to have a caring neighbor.

No, I keep change in a container or two. And I go to the bank once a month an get cash to put in my wallet and I split with my hubby for his wallet. We travel around and often need cash.

We do keep cash in our home. Regarding your situation with your elderly neighbor.... could it be a possiblity she has cash, and is just not aware of where it is, or if she has it at all? While it is good to help your neighbor, perhaps talking it over with her daughter will help enlighten the situation. It's okay to spring for a small amount of money, but it really adds up. We are now retired, and watching our money. You just don't know what your situation will be in the future. Take care of yourself, and talk to her daughter.
