Shopper DeNaesha Gonzalez (Guess her race 
) spotted a new, shiny, unpurchased silver purse at Target β shoved between items like kid's Tylenol and baby lotion β she saw it as a symbol of something else:
A parent's sacrifice. The 28-year-old mom shared a video on TikTok earlier this month showcasing the accessory left behind in the baby aisle, writing, "SHE DESERVED THE PURSE."Thousands of users commented under Gonzalez's TikTok and shared stories of their own experiences sacrificing expenses for themselves in order to provide more for their kids. The video has received more than 20.5 million views since it was posted on Sept. 4. It has sparked a trend on the platform in which people began paying it forward by hiding cash or gift cards in boxes of diapers, cans of baby formula and other family products. Many hoped that parents in need would find the gifts and use them to get something nice for themselves. Hundreds of people have made videos participating in the trend using the hashtag #shedeservedthepurse. Gonzalez said she hopes to partner with brands to give more back to other parents.
While many have praised the trend for highlighting the invisible struggles of parenthood, others felt that the videos would enable bad actors to steal the gifts intended for families. Videos of TikTok users joking about going into baby aisles to search for and take money from baby products have racked up millions of views since the trend took off. Others have filmed their local Target baby aisles, showing ripped diaper boxes and lids removed from baby formula cans. Anway, one brave soy posts a very boring tiktok rant by a foid during which she blames m*n for ruining everything. Somehow this ended up as another battle in the endless war between man (bad) and woman (good):
