Tis the season

Just wanted to see if any of you guys do anything for your mailman/woman during the hollidays? I for one get a Christmas card every year and put a 50 in it. Now this isn't to look the other way but more to show appreciation for what they do....let's not forget that they are responsible for the handling/delivery and without them you'd be copping at the gym at a much higher cost with a lot more risk. This is a more old school tradition and has been lost by today's generation. Just wondering if and what you guys do for your postal workers during the holidays.
P.s. if they were to ever get suspicious, being on good terms with him/her couldn't hurt.

Lmao, that cracked me up.. but yeah the mail guy around my neighborhood is literally santa around Christmas time and he is treated very well by everyone here during the holidays.
My wife gets our mail lady a card and puts together a gift basket or gives her a gift card to somewhere. My wife gets stuff and cards for everbody though. Trash guys, yard guys, damn near everbody she knows, lol.
My moms always done it ever since I can remember. never thought about it since I been on my own. I think I'll pick him up a gift card somewhere or something for Christmas this year.
I bought her a bigger mailbox. She was always complaining about all the packages I got that didn't fit in the box and then she would have to drive up my long ass driveway to drop them off. She left a note saying thank you and really liked the new box. I also leave her a dozen fresh chicken eggs from my chickens.
Twice a year. Christmas and usually sometime in June or July for their birthday. Not sure when their birthday is. 50 bucks to a grocery store. Just don't forget to put a stamp on it still. And I usually leave a bottle of crown for the garbage man.
Still do it. It also has nothing to do with gear, as my family has done it since I can remember.
I'm an oddball when it comes to today's generation I guess.
Right there with you my man....been doing it long before gear. Just like you I grew up on this tradition around the Christmas season.
