Jenny Kantz, a Pennsylvania mother of three, received $100 from former President Donald Trump during a visit to her cousin’s grocery store. Trump’s team had requested someone be present at the checkout counter upon his arrival, and Kantz was chosen. The $100 gift was a complete surprise to her, and she plans to keep the bill as a keepsake rather than spending it on groceries. Kantz mentioned that the rising inflation in grocery prices has been a challenge for her family, with the cost of food steadily increasing. The latest data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture shows a 2.1% increase in food prices compared to the previous year. While the $100 bill could help with future expenses, Kantz has decided to frame it as a memento of the encounter with Trump. The exchange has garnered attention online, with a video of the interaction circulating. Despite the potential financial assistance the money could provide, Kantz feels that the sentimental value of the keepsake is more important. The gesture from Trump has left a lasting impression on Kantz, who described the experience of meeting the former president as great.
