To show some appreciation to its clients for the holiday season and the lead-in to a new year, Central Station developed a festive gingerbread gift box that sidesteps tradition.
While there are many gingerbread gift kits that are designed to share feel-good cheer, this one takes a different approach, promising to satisfy "Anyone Who Ever Wanted to Bite the Head Off Someone at the Agency." As the agency puts it: "We decided that we’d dispel the typical agency gift norms and give our clients what they really want," noting that "fortunately, these Gingerbread Men don’t hold a grudge and the experience won’t leave a bitter taste in your mouth."
