Last weekend I went to our local Farm Boy store (they only have fresh produce, meat, bakery, deli, etc. - not many canned goods and no paper products) and ordered two ducks for Christmas dinner cut into quarters. I said I'd pick them up on the 23rd. This morning the meat manager phoned me and said that they have ducks on sale this week and if I like he can cut them up and put them in the freezer now and I will get the better price. I can still pick them up on the 23rd.


Holy cow. I would have payed whatever the price was on the 23rd, but to phone me to give me a better price impressed me. Needless to say I will be frequenting their store more often than I used to. There are still some stores out there who put customer service first. Refreshing.

Wow that's great I love it when people do that. It reminds you that people are still nice these days when all you hear is bad stuff.


Thanks for sharing.
