I paid it forward and also got a fajita
This is Sean at The Bookstore. I set it up with him to "pay it forward". The person who ordered after me had their coffee or whatever paid for. Sean is going to let me know if the chain continued. After that, with all the talk of the Sandbar Grill, I headed over there for one of their delicious fajitas. I'm all set now. :)

I think you really need to do in a longer line while people are already waiting and observe what youare doing....a fast food restaurant like McDonalds, BK, or Dunkin Donuts is good......
people are more likely to get caught up in the WAVE.
I wanted to promote a local business, not a chain store.
The spirit is definitely in the air. While sitting outside the newest bookstore, meeting with friends over coffee, we observed this scene. Woman was leaving her parking spot, got out of her car and walked back
to waiting vehicle and gave her, the unexpired parking ticket. A bit woman she come back with Victoria Secret bag. Great place to observe the holiday spirit and be inspired.
The pay it forward concept did work that day. It survived through 3 customers, who each appreciated the kindness of the person before them.
I do agree with the first comment, that this would be more effective in a place with longer lines. It provides the individual with more incentive, methinks, to pass it on.

I understand, but we know it will work with a massive line of people, so I wanted to see if it worked when no one else was around, plus I wanted to give the Bookstore business.
