New Orleans Saints owner Gayle Benson, has reportedly paid off nearly $100,000 worth of orders that were on layaway at a Walmart in Louisiana.
According to WBRZ
The New Orleans Advocate reports that 408 orders were paid off at the Walmart on Tchoupitoulas Street, much to the surprise of the customers who placed them. The store said the orders totaled more than $100,000.
Store management said only a few people had come into the store as of Tuesday evening to realize that their holiday purchases had been paid off.
“They’re coming in, and they’re calling their friends and family,” Williams told the Advocate. “They’re very excited. It’s a good thing. It’s a good thing for the community.”
