Priceless menu, faithful patrons

A woman in North Carolina has recently implemented a new menu at her restaurant that has business booming. The gimmick? No prices.

After praying for a way to turn things around for her struggling restaurant Just Cookin’, Dona Parris claims God came to her and told her to leave it to him. She stopped pricing her menu and instead allows the customer to pay what they think the meal is worth.
