Barista Exchange

the world's premiere online community for the specialty coffee industry

Alright so forgive me if this topic has already been started but, what are the three weirdest/coolest things someone has dropped into your tip cup? For me it was

1.Chuck E Cheese token
2.$100
3. A small coin shaped piece of metal which had the outline of an angel on top. Above the angel it said "a guardian angel, sent to watch over you"

Dollars folded into weird shapes

I'd probably laugh for an hour if I found weed in the tip jar......then try to sell it to buy a new game.

Maybe not a Frontiersman in one sense but to come out west used to mean one would have to be a frontiersman to even think about it. Joseph
