In 1953, a consumer loyalty program called Merci ticket was created: 100-yen ticket (orange), 50-yen ticket (yellow), 10-yen ticket (green) were issued for purchases of 2,000 yen, 1,000 yen, and 200 yen (effectively 5% return, no expiration date) to be used for future purchases. Similar return tickets were also seen at Tokyu Hands stationery tickets and local stationery stores. Issuance of Merci tickets ended in January 2009.
