How to Be Happier Without Spending a Lot of Money

Start a Pay-It-Forward Line

The next time you find yourself at a drive-thru for breakfast or coffee, pay for the order for the person behind you. It won’t cost a lot of money, you’ll be happier for doing so and the person behind you will get a nice surprise. And, if it takes off with each subsequent person paying for the next one, you can take pride in knowing your inexpensive act of kindness helped make a lot of people smile.
