THANKS FOR SHARING THE LOVE!

Here are some of the stories from those who have been Tipped Over by your generosity.

SOME TIPPED OVER STORIES

Aubrey

Peoria

Today was my third day serving, and my very first day serving completely on my own. I was extremely nervous, (as to be expected), but I managed to stay calm on the outside. A lovely younger couple tipped me a very generous amount, and I was almost confused, thinking it was an accident. I’m struggling to make money to move out of my place and pay for nursing school. I feel extremely blessed this evening, and I can’t thank you both enough!

Talea

Bloomington

I have been a server for almost 6 years, but over the last year have only worked a few shifts. I have two young kids, and when they started school I had to get a day job. Over the last month I have experienced a lot of financial difficulties with my house, a/c breaking, septic backing up, roof leaking, etc. I hadn’t served since Christmas and was asked to help on the 4th of July weekend. I went to work in a great mood, happy to see my long-lost family. It was a slower evening so I figured I wouldn’t make very much, but any bit of extra helps. Then I had one couple that was very friendly and happy to be there. I did my best to give them outstanding service that I always strive for. And at the end I got the receipt with you’ve been tipped over on it. GOD sure knows what we need just when we need it! I hadn’t severed in 7 months, and the day I do, I am graced with this surprise! I have listened to your radio station my whole life, so I knew all about it. I’m just grateful that Christians are not afraid to show His love in a fallen world!

Sherry

East Peoria

I lost my mother-in-law of 31 years last Friday and have been in a very sad state of mind. I had a mother and daughter come in with their little one today. They were very friendly and the little guy made me smile for the first time since it happened. Every time I went by the table, he gave me a big smile. It was the smile I needed to hold it together so I hope the they know the tip was greatly appreciated – but the smiles were what I needed most. Thank you for both!

I greeted this large party of 6 people with 2 boys. I would say were about 10 or so. The boys were very polite and well-mannered. I remember taking the first boy’s order. When he is finished ordering, there is a 2-second silence before the boy realizes he forgot to say thank you and immediately follows up his order with a please and thank you. That’s when I knew this table would be excellent. When you have a great connection with a table sometimes it doesn’t matter about the tip. To my surprise though the table well over-tipped me. I couldn’t believe the amount and the graciousness bestowed upon me. Thank you.  I appreciated your kind boys and the overall experience. 

Pizza Man

Peoria

I deliver pizzas for a living. Have not been tipped over. Does this apply to delivery drivers? (answer: yes!)
