Don’t pay it forward! 🤣

The “gentleman in front of you” paid for my coffee this morning at Starbucks. When I tried to pay it forward, she shot me down!

Happened to me this week and instead of paying it forward, I gave the barista a tip.

[@ChrisFreitag]

Nice!

[@bigpapawolpie3405]

She was saving you from a dumb price

[@ChrisFreitag]

Yep

[@kavic86]

Not to mention sometimes the person behind you has a large order where as you only had 1 coffee. So the person was also most likely saving you a good bit of money. Personally I don't see the point of this as there are many ways things like that can go wrong or be abused.

I definitely didn’t want to

[@MrRockrobstr]

Car behind you could have been a large expensive order.

[@ChrisFreitag]

Yep

[@haylieemichelle8826]

If you are at starbucks trust me, you probably don't even need the favor.. How about adding $5 to the gas pump behind you? 😊

The next person probably knew this was going on and took advantage by ordering a heavy order to make it cost a lot. Never pay it forward when it comes to that.

[@ChrisFreitag]

Yeah, I mean I definitely didn’t want to do it

[@christurner7697]

Instead of paying for the person behind you who has the money to buy their own drink, give a generous tip instead!

[@ChrisFreitag]

Always do!

[@francisphillipeck4272]

Never would I ever.
