Heard from the radio this morning "Pay for next one's meal"

What started as a random act of kindness from one man paying for the car behind him in a Dairy Queen drive-thru resulted in over 900 cars also taking part in the pay it forward chain.

Tina Jensen, the store manager at one of the two Dairy Queens in town Minnesota, told CNN a man came by the drive-thru window on Thursday and asked if he could pay for his meal and for the car behind him.
Jensen told her cashier this tends to happen once in a while but at most it lasts for 15 or 20 cars and fizzles out.
This time, the chain continued for two and a half days with over 900 cars participating, raking in $10,000 in sales.

When the chain closed for the night Thursday, one car left $10 to begin the chain back up Friday morning and again on Saturday morning.
