Free Coffee at McDonalds

Christoph: One latte, please.

Man at the counter: I'm sorry. May I offer you a regular cup of coffee for free instead? [Looks at me] Would you like one, too? [I nod dumbly.]

My thought process: Wait... free? Really? I must have heard wrong... That's too easy...NOTHING is free here.

My words to Christoph: Did he really just say "for free??"

Christoph: Yeah! That's what he said.

My words to the man: Wow, kiiitos!

And that's how we got two cups of coffee with milk for free from McDonalds. :) It turns out that they were supposed to sell latte until 10pm. However, they had cleaned the machine 10 minutes early tonight, so the man felt obligated to give us free coffee instead. I like Finns.
