RIDLEY, Pa. — Two different Secret Santas have been paying off tens of thousands of dollars of layaway accounts at discount stores in Pennsylvania.

A man who goes by the name “Santa B” has been paying off layaways at central Pennsylvania Wal-Marts for at least three years.

This year, he paid off $166,000 worth of accounts at stores in Swatara Township, near Harrisburg; Lebanon; and Everett in Bedford County.

A different anonymous Santa paid off some layaway accounts at Kmart’s Ridley Township store, near Philadelphia.
