I was the beneficiary of Starbucks pay-it-forward last weekend.

I had never heard of this prior to the clerk explaining it, especially since I don't frequent.
Nice surprise nonetheless.

I was not as kind to the car behind me.

Is it standard to pay for the next one, keep it going?

I took it as random.. sorry I will pay for someone next time.

But wait. If he got his for free, and then he pays for the person behind him, wouldn't it just be easier for him to pay for his own? Kinda defeats the purpose of the concept, if I understand it correctly.

Hence, why the above poster said this is just coffee drinkers trying to be cool again. It's pretty stupid.

You are supposed to pay for the car behind you NEXT TIME you go to Starbucks.

You are safe and can still not be a dick.

My wife has had that happen to her at the one by our house 4-5 times. She said she never got the one behind her.

Chances are the person behind you was a woman fat arse that ordered the buffet. Good move, just take your free drink and go.

I like to scope out the driver of the car behind me before I offer to pay for their food.

What if the dude behind you ordered a lot of expensive shite? Makes no sense.

And with disgusting overly roasted coffee too. I understand why their top selling drinks are loaded with sugar and cream. It's because their basic coffee tastes like what I imagine burned shite tastes like.

Good for her. This is obviously just something people do to make themselves look and feel better. Cute girl at the window? Here comes Joe Nice Guy offering to pay for the car behind him to look like an OT baller/philanthropist in front of her. It's pretty goofy IMO
