First things first, this was mentioned by thumbwax (see link) as an anno, but not posted as an idea.
Maybe he wasn't thinking on a grand enough scale, but some kind of HB Discount scheme may just work.
So here's the deal... As mentioned in the above idea, i am in the fortunate enough position
to get free cinema tickets for my pals, so come to Aberdeen, and as i consider you all pals (apart from Waug... Just Kiddin'), i can get you into your film for free ('cept for the blockbusters on opening night).
Can anyone else offer similar benefits to other bakers, maybe record store discounts, or a few extra fries in your HB Discounted Happy Meal...
See thumbwax's anno...

I can get a discount (5%) for any Sydney (Australia) based 'bakers from a major electronics retailer/wholesaler as well as the supermarket chain that owns it (as well as its liquor branches) iff'n anyone is interested. |
|
| |
Hmmm.. I can take your blood and use it for heart research. Any takers? |
|

*blush* ++ Good. sp:th-, *not* Th- |

So you don't mind me posting your idea then thumb?
All croissants will be shared equally with your good self (but you are gonna get half dem bones too). |
|
| |
Of course not. While in the theatre of the absurd, I simply left an unpopped kernel of popcorn in the bucket - you popped it. bun appetit! |
|
| |
Aberdeen... what city, state, country is that in? |
|
| |
City = Aberdeen
State = ...
Country = Scotland (near London England) |
|
| |
West, somewhat, of Denmark. |
|
| |
Aberdeen to London probably equates with London to Denmark, if anyone cares a rats ... |
|
| |
So... you don't mean Aberdeen, Washington, USA? |
|
| |
If anyone needs any cricket gear, I can get it a bit cheaper for you when we put in our next bulk order. |
|
| |
No, i don't mean washington USA, but if they have a UGC cinema or if they open one, i may be entitled to freebies there.
Anyhoo, i am leaving Aberdeen in a couple of weeks, so this is a limited time offer. |
|
| |
I was thinking he meant Aberdeen, Maryland (USA). Darn. Thought I had a HB'er that was actually close to me... |
|
| |
Norman, OK: Cheap computer parts, below retail motorcycle parts, free (crappy) beer if you really WANT it (I know we sure don't). |
|
| |
Amarillo, TX: Free coffee, cheap computer parts, bellow retail skateboard parts. Of course, mohawk haircuts are no charge! |
|
| |
Ooh - Sign me up! Where, Burnsy? |
|
| |
Hey, who dragged this back up?
I now work for a bank, so anybody need cheap money? |
|
| |
Another update... Am now with the Police (the constabulary, not the band!), so one free crime per person! |
|
| |
Why don't you call it the Half-Masons? |
|
| |
Come on in to Philly Steakout (rochester, ny) |
|
| |
I'll sling any baker some extra steak, just say your a HB |
|
| |
If anyone is ever in Dubai, I'll take you for a free scenic plane flight. |
|
| |
Shirley these discounts should all be 50%. |
|
| |
Looks to me like MikeOliver is trying to put together a CV with enough jobs on it that he can become an author. |
|
| |
This is just the highlights.. there have been some real crappy jobs in between! |
|
| |
Working in a cinema is no highlight [Mike]. Since doing that as a teenager I have found all cinemas stink of bin bags. |
|
| |
Depends which department you work on... Spending most of the day watching films, with the occasional game of football in the screens between shows and sword fighting with brooms, is a pretty good way to kill time between not going to lectures. |
|
| |
Okinawa: cheap computer repair and networking. |
|
| |
...Just found this. If anyone (low chance I admit) is ever going up to cape york (far north Queensland, Australia) - I've been living here for years and can give all the "inside" cape information, best camping/fishing spots, contact numbers for land owners and permit issuers, and if you're lucky, maybe a fishing trip or we'll go catch you a barra. |
|
| |
I can get you a few tons of cheap bauxite too, but whadd're you gonna do with that? |
|
| |
Smelt some aluminium, of course! |
