An article from the Chicago Sun-Times tells of the Drake Hotel in Chicago (a landmark hotel built in the 1920's) deciding to give a Cicero couple a special anniversary gift: the same price they paid when they honeymooned at the hotel in 1946. According the the paper, "Amazed by the [60 year old bill], Drake officials, as a gift to the Cicero couple, decided to charge them the original rate: seven bucks a night." The manager later indicated that it's not unprecedented for the hotel to take such an action. Kudos to a fine establishment.
