Tim Hortons customer pays for 500 coffees

EDMONTON, Alberta, July 24 (UPI) -- Workers at a Tim Hortons shop in Alberta said a customer who declined to give his name paid about $900 to get coffee for a day's worth of customers.

Pinky Lung, hostess at the cafe, said the young man purchased about 500 cups of coffee Monday, enough for the rest of the day's customers to have free beverages, the Canadian Broadcasting Corp. reported Wednesday.

"We asked him his name and he didn't tell us," Lung said. "He said he didn't want to tell anyone."
