Honesty pays
Permalink  

I had a lovely hot chocolate at Muffin Break this morning. The lady took my order and waited for the machine to be available to her, she made my drink, handed it to me and started to serve the next person. I said I havn't paid yet, she thanked me for being honest, took my money and with the change gave me 4 free drink vouchers with no use by date.

Very nice indeed, just like the hot chocolate.

Certainly pays to be honest Doug. What goes around come around.

Muffin Break would have been better off if you'd said nothing and got a freebie.

Now they have to give you 4 freebies...ROTFL. biggrin

Cheers Neil

ps: well done on the honesty...ha ha

Just goes to prove honesty does pay, and Muffin Break is prepared to pay for honesty. A good deal.
Who knows, Doug may take a guest next time, and word of mouth is the best, and worst form of publicity.
We now know how generous Muffin Break is.
Who wins?

It should always pay to be honest. But it always seems funny to me when you say 'You've given me too much change' and they reply 'Oh, sorry...' I would have thought they should be happy not sorry for getting their over-change back!
