I've frequently helped out stranded motorists. Been stranded myself on more than one occasion so I don't mind returning the karmic favor.
I'll help people out in small ways, like getting something off a high shelf when there are no salespeople around, help load/unload something that 1 person can't really do, point people in the right direction when they are completely confuzzled about where they are, offer to take a picture of a couple/group, stuff like that.
As an aside, I noticed I get asked to take pictures more frequently when I have the DSLR with me than when I'm carrying a P&S. People have said I look like I know what I'm doing because I have that "fancy camera".
