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"

PUBES, thai and panama coins, $20's

In my career so far I have recieved: A Gi. Joe, Starbucks gift cards, lots of weed, several lighters, several cigarettes, one cigar, gummy bears, free movie passes, a young woman's digits, peruvian money, cash from the czech republic, a note in some language I couldn't read, and probably some stuff I can't remember. But those are the most notable thus far. Oh yeah, and cash from a VERY elderly woman's bra. I'm pretty sure that was the first time that I couldn't help but laugh at a customer right in front of them.

Very strange. I have received both a "guardian angel" coin and a Chuck E Cheese coin.

I have never received $100.

Recently, a bullet casing. From an f-ing huge bullet. And now I want to go shooting with whoever left it. :)

A Garbage Pail Kids card, the sticker from which now adorns my water bottle.

This machine was operating in a upscale restaurant, but was too much machine for the demand, so I bought it for next to nothing. I'll check into its age.
