..you smile back and say Thank You.
Some time back, I was reading an interview of a millionaire in the US, who confessed that inspite of all the money he had, he traveled only economy class. This allowed him to not only save up a lot, but also stay in his humble self and not get an attitude and let him remain down to earth. The story had an impact on me and I realized that what he said was so true.
However at the same time, when someone gives you a chance to experience something at no cost, then why not grab the opportunity.
Recently on a flight to Patna from New Delhi, all I requested for was an aisle seat. Only to my surprise I found that I had been alloted a business class seat at the cost of an economy seat. Now this was the first time, so I checked with the air hostess if there was anything wrong. And what good had I done to get the business seat. However I guessed that it was either the flight was overbooked in the economy class, or just that they did not know what airbus would be flying in that sector when they gave the tickets.
I just confirmed whether that was the only 3D seat in the flight, and then sat. Enjoyed the seat experience and smiled all through out the flight :)
Moments like these make you say, Life Rocks. :)

I feel like your millionaire - when I come to Delhi, I prefer DTC buses, just to remember what it feels running behind a bus or getting crushed in the crowd, listening to blaring Hindi songs! It makes me feel alive and I think that I need to pay extra for the experience! :-)
