This time of year is an exciting time, but can also be very stressful. While we're captivated by the spirit of the holidays, we're also faced with the very real reality of bills and adult responsibilities. However, one kind soul wanted to alleviate some of the holiday stress for some very blessed people. 

In Pennsylvania, an anonymous donor walked into two small town Walmart stores and paid off all of the holiday layaways- $180,000 worth. Gives you the chills, doesn't it?

The donor was adamant about remaining anonymous, but did say he could be referred to as "Santa B."

According to reports, some customers expressed relief. Others broke down and cried. And others explained that they were using the layaway option this year for the first time because of a job loss.

Believe it or not, this isn't the first time that "Santa B" has struck. Last year, this same person took care of layaways at a different Walmart, to the tune of about $50,000.
