I think I'm Special!!! Or am I ???

I received in the mail today a package from MB.
1. Small book titled "One man. One engine."
2. Invitation to AMG driving Academy.
3 DVD on World of AMG
4. $100 Saks gift card !! (My wife already took it away from me )

Does everyone get this or just us SPECIAL people!!? HaHa
I bought my car as a CPO so I did not expect these kind of treatment.
Thanks MB & AMG!!!

Oh I'm married, but that $100 just doesn't go too far in this house
If I gave it to my wife, that $100 gift will cost me another grand.
My wife spends plenty, we get about 4-5 packages a day, I wish I was joking.

But she makes good money, so if I can indulge in my stuff and not catch any $h!t, so be it, let her buy a new outfit for everyday of the week

Maybe I'll get some new socks and underwear--I'd rather they sent some more AMG swag instead of the gift card honestly.

Nope, your not exactly special, but you are priviledged. AMG sends the book out to all its owners, I've received one for each AMG. Still haven't use the Saks Fifth Avenue card yet. It might not be any good, I had the first one for years....LOL I did receive a underarmor type T-Shirt from AMG, last year. I sent a very nice email to them, and in turn recieve a very nice gift.
