AA chips? for 1 year of sobriety?

http://cgi.ebay.com/LOT-of-Alcoholic...QQcmdZViewItem

NOT my auction. Looks like plastic AA chips are given out as a token reward for 1 year of sobriety.

Interesting. Maybe they're poker playing AA members? Not sure I get the connection.

Geez, you scared the heck out of me. I thought you were a recovering alchololic prior to a chipaholic.

Re: AA chips? for 1 year of sobriety?

AA folks earn chips for accomplishments...I've heard them talk about their 1 year chip, etc...

My name's Rob, I'm an alcoholic, and I have no wish to recover

Minor threadjack.

I viewed some of the other items from Big Daddy and found this one humourous.

Re: AA chips? for 1 year of sobriety?

haha, I've been to a bar that has JARS full of AA chips... turn in your chip, get a drink. If it's a month chip or better you get a shot and a beer.

freakin' evil, huh?
