Forever Changed
According to this guy, In-N-Out Burger used to be a bro of a fast-food chain. If you forgot your wallet, don’t worry about it! Your favorite burger chain’s got your back! They’d comp your meal just because they didn’t want you to leave the building burger-less. Try doing that at McDonald’s, and they would’ve tossed your butt onto the streets.
Sadly, this free-burger policy was short-lived because a group of people abused the heck out of the system. They’d come time and time again and “forget” to bring their wallets. It wasn’t long before In-N-Out decided that Californians didn’t deserve an on-the-house burger policy.
