In my day, it was victoria secret!
Alot of point's were wasted when I found one of them!

Humanity can be helped with a stamp.......a stamp of approval from someone you respect, is worth far more than green stamp's!

A good ol pat on the back is an excellent start to making someone happy, so pat on the back, as much as you can!

Things were very tough when I was little. As I got older the family business became more successful, but collecting the little stamps became just as important to Mom. Like so many families of the time, we were a one-income family. Collecting the stamps allowed Mom to "buy" things and feel that she had earned the capital that paid for them. That was one of the life-lessons that stuck at a very early age....

Lots of people have them.
They come in a variety of sizes.
For some strange reason, a few people get really excited by them.
But in reality they are practically useless for their intended purpose.
