Someone Bought My Lunch and Shared Emma’s Story with me!

I just walked into Jimmy Johns and - as if I wasn't already happy enough about getting Jimmy Johns - an unknown woman, who had left shortly before I arrived, had left one of your cards with cash to put toward the next customer's' order.

Starbucks at Union City, CA
