In general, Honest Tea said it sees a range of behavior in its experiment. The company used an honor system for taking payments: the suggested price for a bottle of tea was a dollar, but no one was present to make customers accountable. In other cases, executives said they sometimes have seen people put in $1 and take a few bottles instead of just one.

Honest Tea will donate all funds collected from the on-site social experiments to FoodCorps, a nationwide team that connects kids to real food and better nutrition.
