Here you go fellow redditor...

Last night, my boyfriend and I ordered a pizza.

Unfortunately, I didn't know that I had already paid using my debit card. Upon delivery, I ended up with $40 in my hand and gave the delivery guy a 25% tip on top of what was paid online.

The delivery man, who was a man in his 30s, barely spoke English and drove a beat-up car.

However, he expressed his gratitude with great enthusiasm by telling me "thank you!" It was then that I realized I had just given him double the amount of the order. I hesitated to admit my mistake and ask for a refund, but the delivery man's reaction changed my mind.

When I saw the smile on the delivery man's face, I knew that the money meant a lot to him. He was so happy that he even made a little jump when he got into his car.

Although I wasn't rich, I felt good about helping someone who needed it more than me. I felt a little silly for making the mistake, but the joy I saw in the delivery man's eyes brightened my day.

This story may seem insignificant, but for me, it was really cool.

TL;DR : I paid double for a pizza because of my distraction, but I have no regrets. The joy I brought to this person was priceless.

Edit: I opened this before putting my phone down for a while. When I came back to read the post didn't let me vote on it so I knew something was up. So after reading your comment I decided to copy and paste. I hope you enjoy OP's story
