They wouldn't do THIS at Market Basket

For the past few weeks, I've been getting some produce and locally-raised chicken at Butter Brook Farm, an organic farm about 10 minutes from here. I stopped by there last night on the way home from work to get a chicken to roast for dinner tonight. They had sold out for the day, but told me to come by today.
After our hike this morning, we went by the farm, but the man hadn't gone yet to pick up the chicken. They took my phone number and address, and just *dropped the chicken* here at our house.
Now, I'm not trying to advertise that Butter Brook farm delivers, because they don't, in general, I'm sure. BUT they knew that it's hard to get out w/ the kids, and that with naps I knew I couldn't get back this afternoon, so they went the extra mile.
How nice is that?
