Skyline give free gondola rides in Queenstown and Rotorua, discounts on accommodation in Queenstown and Dunedin and some sort of bonus points with their casino club.
I thought, for fun, we could list our favorite unexpected benefits of holding shares in particular NZX shares
Suggested categories could be
AGM catering and venue Gift Packs Shareholder Discounts
To start the ball rolling BLIS: bag of blis products giver out to attendees at their AGM MCK Millennium Copthorne Hotels : shareholder hotel discount voucher
My first shares was way back in the late 80's in Wilson Neil - and they gave out a discount voucher to one of their booze shops.
I was about 15.....
Remember that one .. back in the day when it was a penny dreadful & having a little fun periodically - when the SP could only go one way
like double up north, less the 2 lots of brokerage
meanwhile quite a few thousand in the pocket later for the adventure
In the day Renouf (later to become Hellaby) was another in the same penny dreadfuls Dept following the 1987 crash
(over the term since, from 1c up to around $3 on takeover by the Aussies wasn't a bad reward for the ride)
1/10th cent gradients since unfortunately has removed some of the fun..
Such market induced free gifts for the taking probably exceeded any gifts the companies dished out ..
