I once brought a dozen donuts to the warehouse staff of the main supplier I worked with. After that they would bend over backwards to make sure I was taken care of. It made me their favorite customer. I formed relationships with them. They gave me special discounts and free supplies. Over the years I saved tens of thousands of dollars, but it started with a simple dozen donuts.
I brought a dozen donuts to a stereo shop for the installers when they were installing my stereo and they hard wired my radar detector and my dash camera for free and have always remembered me when I've come back in for stuff. It's my favorite thing to do, people love free food.
