After renewing my lease about a week ago I came home to find a package propped against my apartment door. In it was my copy of the lease... and a little radio iFruit-looking thing.
Apparently you can get them custom-ordered if you order a gajillion of them -- mine says "Bent Tree" instead of "Suprema Radio Action". They retail for what seems to be about seven bucks, so with the bulk discount I'm assuming they got they probably filled a back closet in the office with these things for one or two people's rent increase.
Still, it's kinda-sorta a nice gesture. Except for the part where I haven't listened to broadcast radio (aside from the alarm clock) in about five years. Maybe from a distance people will think it's some wacky new kind of iPod.
Update, about two minutes later: And either it came with a set of dead batteries or it was pre-broken for my convenience.
