Returning the Favor

GNHR RAK Leave a Comment

Tonight my RAK was to a man who has recently become a regular, and is always kind, and generous. He always comes in late night, and orders a snack for here, and dinner to go, and has a drink or two. He is always respectful and pleasant, and I felt it would be nice to return the favor. He has brought in many of his friends and he raves about how wonderful the food and service is here. He didn’t want his picture taken, and preferred to remain nameless. I was so happy to be able to do something nice for him for a change. – Mike Columbare

A Special Celebration at Copper Door

Today I PIF to two lovely women named Carolyn and Susan. They are from the Lakes Region and typically dine at T-BONES in Laconia! Copper Door has been on their radar for a couple of years and today they made a special trip to try us for the first time. Being that it is Carolyn’s birthday and they made the effort to celebrate with us, I decided to take care of their lunch. They were ecstatic and have a great group of friends they are going to send our way! Happy Birthday Carolyn! – Nicole Ward

The Enthusiasm is Contagious

While pumping gas tonight I ran into a long-time friend who told me about the football team he coaches. He was so enthusiastic when talking about helping the kids and teaching them about football (and whatever life lessons come up during a football practice or game). Tonight was one of the nights where he stayed late after practice to help a kid who wants to get better. He was running behind and still needed to get dinner for him and his wife. Felt great to be able to RAK him and make his night a little easier. – Jeff Lemay

First Father’s Day

CJ’s RAK tonight went to Jay who was in with his wife and small daughter. She was very talkative and having a good time and I could see she had him wrapped around her finger. I know the feeling! When I stopped over to check in on them, he told me tomorrow was his 1st father’s day so this made it an easy choice for me. He was absolutely taken aback and I think may have been close to tears. He made sure to thank me a million times and I know he already has a Pay it Forward in his head. – Josh Bruno

Hello, Again

Hudson RAK today went to Jef & Dennis… these two actually met one of our cocktail servers, Lynn, at Rite Aid yesterday and decided to come join us for lunch and drinks today! Lynn thought it was great that they came by and so did I! I stopped by at the end of their meal to let them know I was taking care of their appetizer & dessert and they were so excited! Jef says he LOVES being able to perform random acts of kindness himself and he can’t wait to Pay it Forward! – Meaghan Corriveau

Team T-BONES

Tonight’s RAK was to a family with two young sons that came in and had one of our fairly new servers that was in the weeds. I went to the table and took the order, they were laughing about me multitasking and I told them we were a team at T-BONES. They were so understanding and kind to the server that I returned and gave them a $50 gc for their next visit, they were astonished and so grateful. They said they would find another family to Pay it Forward to. – Connie Cowette

Random Act of Kindness

Broken Leg

GNHR RAK Leave a Comment

Today Steve and Donna came to join us for lunch. As I was seating them, I asked what happened. Steve said he broke his leg in 3 places back in April and was in his 5th cast, which was a walking boot, but still on crutches. I hooked them up with a $50 gift certificate and invited them to come back and visit us when Steve was finally done with the casts and off the crutches. Totally surprised them and they said absolutely, and will forward along the random act. – Matthew Phipps

Military Men

Today I had a server come up to be about doing a military discount, so I decided to make these gentleman my RAK.  I started off my spiel about how we don’t have a program in place at the moment blah blah blah, and said, HOWEVER! And told them about our Pay it Forward promo and that I was taking care of their whole meal.  They were blown away.  “How’s that for a military discount!?” one of the men said.  I’m very sure they will pick a great person to Pay it Forward! – Amy Czyzewski

Little Dude

The RAK today went to a little dude named Mike. When he saw a woman drop her purse he ran over to help her pick everything up. I bought him and his sister dessert, and he started rattling off names of people he wants to “make feel happy” by Paying it Forward. Good kid, who loves cake. – Mike Columbare

Pre-Flight Snack

I chose a couple in the Cantina who does a lot of traveling for business, but every time they have to fly out or are getting home they stop into CJ’s for some snacks.  I caught them at the end of their visit so I gave them a GC.  I explained the whole promotion and thought it was great! They were going to Pay it Forward before they had to fly out! – Amanda Mudgett
