They are just silly trinkits to make you feel like you’ve accomplished something by spending money at their establishment. Don’t you want to be cool?
If I did, I wouldn't have taken up pipe smoking. Everyone else was smok8ng cigarettes, I had to be the different one.

I have:

Candy: Your candy ass padded an order with pipe cleaners to get to the free shipping threshold.

Brother-in-Law: You wanted 2 tins of the blend but when you noticed only 3 left in stock you bought all of them just to piss someone off.

Holiday Inn: You never tried the blend but left a review anyway because you just stayed at....a Holiday Inn.

I would assume gold you just get more of a discount?
The VIP silver is pretty good it takes about $10-15+ off of the price of a new pipe there... which in some cases is already discounted, leading to a very fair price!

For whatever reason, I never heard of badges until this post. My three-tin orders didn't trip the app I guess. Some marketing wizard figured this would trip the male competitive urges. 'Wonder if it works. Maybe with a Platinum badge someone channels Sixten Iversson and he carves you a pipe from the great beyond.
