Community
Jerad, a customer at Tacos TJ 664, gave a family $100 when the restaurant’s cash-only system caused a payment problem and rewarded them with a meal, and the restaurant thanked him with a free taco voucher for the rest of the year—his kind act is already inspiring others.
The incident occurred in August and has since united the community in celebration.
