Donnie Wahlberg leaves $2,020 tip again, this time on $35 bill

Donnie Wahlberg is continuing to shine a little light on the darkness that is 2020.

The “Wahlburgers” alum, 51, generously left a $2,020 tip on a $35.27 bill to his server, Denise Andrews, at Marshland Restaurant’s Plymouth, Mass., location.

“A very special thank you to our friend @donniewahlberg!” the restaurant’s Instagram account captioned a picture of the receipt. “When asked about it all he said was ‘who’s up next?!'”

The “Blue Bloods” star’s tip is part of the “#2020tipchallenge.”

The location’s owner, Marty Finch, later told People that Andrews divvied the hefty tip among her coworkers.

“Denise was very generous. She tipped out her fellow waitstaff and the guys in the kitchen, and she actually donated too,” he Finch said. “She’s working on getting two families turkey meals during the holidays, so she’s generous herself. Donnie said to pass it on, to keep this positive stuff going, so she’s trying to do that as well.”

Of the New Kids on the Block singer’s generosity, Finch added, “It was just very uplifting for everyone.”

In early January, Wahlberg left a $2,020 tip at an Illinois IHOP to kick the year off right.
