		<description>[...] Do small ‘PURPLE’ things make a big difference? Absolutely. Imagine if you asked that same friend for a recommendation and he started gushing about Product X because they did these little things that were unexpected and extra. It could be the customer service they received (think Zappos), a feature that they decided not to charge for (think Southwest and &#8216;Bags Fly Free&#8217;), or a ‘thank you’ with free minutes if you spend X per month (think Stew Leonard’s).

		<description>Thanks Stew.  Your store is a big inspiration.  Too few businesses get the concept that you need to go above and beyond in giving a little extra.  Stew Leonard&#039;s practices it every day.  You&#039;ve developed a philosophy that&#039;s one part Dale Carnegie, one part Walt Disney and one part Sam Walton.  No wonder why your store is the most profitable grocery store per square foot in the world.</description>

		<description>Dear Stan
It would be one thing if you had only visited Stew&#039;s once to write your story. But living 300 yards up the hill and being a regular, makes your Purple Goldfish Award even more meaningful. All I can say is WOW!
By the way, I love your blog!  Thank you.
