Dad of newborn finds a surprise gift for baby hidden in newly bought washing machine, blown away by kindness

In a previous story, Briefly News reported about another act of kindness, but this time in the USA. A dad, Chris Blaze from Arizona, recently bought a second-hand washing machine and asked the private seller to reduce the price from $500 (R7.4k) to $400 (R5.9k).

He was a little cash-strapped after welcoming a new baby into the world. After the seller agreed, Blaze went home and while inspecting the machine, he found his $400 tucked away inside.

He also received the following message from the kind seller:

"Check the dryer, a gift for the new baby.”

Blaze was incredibly grateful and wrote a Facebook post about his experience.
