    I told my Chick-Fil-A story on the BC* Tweb, but that won't stop me from telling it again...

    I had some workers at my house taking down trees I lost in the drought. I decided to buy them lunch, so I went to Chick-Fil-A and ordered a half dozen Chick-Fil-A sandwiches. When I got to the window to pay, the lady informed me that my food was already paid for, and she pointed to the vehicle that had been in front of me, driving off down the highway. When I posted that on facebook, I discovered a lot of other people had similar stories! And from all over the country, so it wasn't the same guy!

    Next time I went to Chick-Fil-A, when I ordered my food, I told the lady, "and add the car behind me to my order". She didn't seem the least bit surprised, cause that apparently happens a lot. Chick-Fil-A just kinda fosters that kind of spirit!

    A local Christian radio station, 98.5 KTIS, actively encourages people to do that, especially on the first Friday of each month. They call it the Drive-Thru Difference. They often have people call in to express the difference it made in their lives.

      I can only applaud Chik-fil-A for doing this. I sincerely hope they aren't the only ones. This action is considerate, thoughtful, welcome, helpful, and a VERY good business practice. My heartfelt thanks go out to Chik-fil-A for doing this. Good on you guys!

        Glad to report that there were other businesses that helped folks out during the snowstorm. According to Reuters CVS, Home Depot, Target, Krogers and Publix all allowed stranded motorists to spend the night (with the latter two, being grocery stores, offering free food as well). RaceTrac was giving people coffee and hot chocolate. Still I think that Chick-fil-A deserves special mention considering that unlike the others which assisted those that came to them, they went out into the cold and helped those that they found.

        I'm always still in trouble again

          I agree. I know that the national guard also went out to help people. Any others?

            The CFA in my town gave free food to the snowplow drivers tonight (we've had over a foot of snow).

                  Chick-Fil-A keeps sending me free food.

                  Last week and again today, some delivery driver (two different drivers actually) have dropped off Chick-Fil-A at my door. I called the store and they said it was probably Door Dash delivery service and they don't have any control over it but they would call them.

                  Seeing as I am being extra cautious, I threw the food in the trash. I am not taking any chances.

                    That's wise. If it happens again I suggest you have the food tested...somebody may be up something bad.

                      pretty sure it is just the wrong address, but I am not taking chances on any food from outside. I don't know anything about the people who prepared it or the delivery driver.
