glorybebe Posted December 26, 2012 #1 Share Posted December 26, 2012 In a delightful show of Christmas spirit, coffee drinkers at a Tim Hortons in Winnipeg, Manitoba, paid it forward for 228 customers in a row on Friday, the staff told the CBC. One generous customer at the restaurant on Beaverhill Blvd. started a chain of customers paying for the person behind them that lasted about three hours. http://ca.news.yahoo.com/blogs/good-news/chain-reaction-tim-hortons-goodwill-183517438.html That is so cool! I love stories like this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The customer before him had paid for his four coffees." ...he was covered in green fur I bet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, there are cheap, grumpy people everywhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Likely Guy Posted December 26, 2012 #5 Share Posted December 26, 2012 (edited) LOL, yeah. Sad that it ended and how it ended. But, there are cheap, grumpy people everywhere. No, not everywhere. This case study suggests that grinches are only 1 in 229. This story helps to reinflate my faith in humankind.

A small price to pay. One day we'll all have free bicycles, like the Dutch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every little bit helps, and I hope it teaches my daughter that you can do these little things without expecting things back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
