Dozens pay it-forward at Starbucks drive-thru

BETHEL PARK, PA (WCMH) – At least 160 people paid it forward and bought coffee for the person behind them in line at a Pittsburgh area Starbucks drive-thru.

“They like… just felt like joy, and they were like, that’s so awesome of them, so they just wanted to do the exact same thing,” Logan Norris, a barista at Starbucks, told KDKA.


Norris said a customer offered to buy coffee for the strangers in the car behind them around 9am Tuesday.

“It started out by… someone just came up and they wanted to do just that and pay it forward, and it just kept going,” said Norris.
