Yesterday I was in a rush at lunchtime. I helped with a charity, I ran to the store to prepare for the early Christmas dinner I'm making tonight and had to run through Taco Bell's drive-thru to hopefully make it back on time... I was 5 min late. In my rush, I just wanted to get through the line (it wasn't as time-saving as I'd hoped with 4 cars ahead of me). I saw a woman in the car behind me and, as I had the time, I decided to pay for her meal as well. I pulled up to the window and gave the cashier my $5.49 and an extra $10 and told her, "I'd also like to pay for the person behind me." She smiled, said "Okay," and gave me my change and meal. I drove off. That's it! It's been years since I've done this and I'd like to do it more often - now that I'm eating at the drive-thru far less than I used to!
