Title: My Beer Supplier

It is sure nice to have a good beer supplier and friend, Brad (Sandman) at the Beer and Wine Depot. I have been buying my beer there for about 40 years; it is only 2 minutes from my place.

Brad treats this old man pretty good. He gives me some good BBQ samples and a new craft beer to try sometimes. I have been drinking Keystone Light beer, my everyday beer, for a long time now. The 30 packs are a good price but after my back operation I relied on my son and the wife at times to get them in the fridge for me. I was doing it with the help of a two wheel cart.

I was afraid I was going to reinjure my back and didn’t want the wife to be lifting them so I started buying two 12 packs. After a few times Brad said he checked and the 30 packs were like getting a six pack free compared to two 12 packs. He said we’ll try to keep a 30 pack split for you! I would say that’s pretty good service; thanks Brad!

Good man to have on your side  ;)       Hard to find good stores anymore  :(    Most barely give you a hi and thanks for shopping here.

Nice Don! Sandman sounds like a pretty good man!
 The best deal is where both sides are happy. Sounds like you two have a great deal that works for both of you! Loyalty is getting to be a rarely used word these days. You and Sandman know how important loyalty is! ;)

If I was living in your area, I would start going there because of that service.

That is a FINE example of quality service.  Not seen much anymore, unfortunately.
