[QUOTE="leastbest, post: 1070401, member: 1095"] My very last peak after being on the same route for 32 years I delivered to a mansion on the south shore of Lake Erie. The wind was blowing and a cold rain had soaked me. It was a little after 7pm. The guy came to the door and I gave him the package. He said Merry Christmas and gave me an Arch Card from McDonalds. I'd been delivering to him for over thirty years and this was the first time he ever gave me anything. I said thanks and went back to work. An hour later I stopped at Mickey Dees and ordered a coffee. The clerk said, that will be 43 cents. I told her that Arch Cards were worth $5. She said this one had been mostly used up. The next day I delivered to the factory he owned and mentioned it to one of his managers. He said he always does that. He buys them by the handful, uses them, and then gives them away. He got a kick out of it. One of the many reasons I loved peak. [/QUOTE]
