TikTok's 'She Deserved the Purse' Trend Sparks Acts of Kindness and Controversy

A viral TikTok trend encouraging acts of kindness towards moms has led to both heartwarming gestures and unintended consequences in stores.

Denaesha Gonzalez's TikTok video about a purse left in a baby aisle has garnered over 25 million views, inspiring the 'She Deserved the Purse' trend.
The trend involves people hiding cash, gift cards, and notes of encouragement in baby products at stores to support moms.
Moms like Cecily Bauchmann and Ariel Gottfried have contributed to the trend, with Bauchmann initiating it by hiding a $100 Target gift card in a diaper box.
However, the trend has led to some shoppers raiding baby aisles, opening packages in search of hidden money, causing damage to products.
Despite the issues, the trend highlights the sacrifices moms make and aims to foster a supportive community, with some suggesting the movement could evolve into a larger charitable organization.
