1. It was an ordinary morning in Iowa when customers started noticing something odd. As they lined up at the Hy-Vee branch of First National Bank, a regular heard an unusual sound coming from inside. The teller’s window seemed to hum softly, almost like a distant hummingbird's song. Curious, the customer asked the teller what it was. With a smile, she replied that it was just their new energy-efficient lighting. Soon enough, everyone had a good laugh—even the delivery driver who’d been frowning over his coffee. It turned out that the hum was simply the latest eco-friendly innovation, making life at the Hy-Vee branch a little more… musical.

Inside, he found a mysterious package left behind—a bag filled with nothing but old coins and notes from long ago. As he opened it, an ancient coin clattered against an old receipt. Curious, the driver took out one coin—only to discover it was worth more than his monthly salary! Excitedly, he rushed back inside, only to find that the mysterious package had vanished without a trace. The next day, everyone in town knew about the magical coin, and for weeks afterward, neighbors would joke about who might be the lucky recipient of the next hidden treasure.

Word spread quickly around town, and soon everyone in Hy-Vee’s neighborhood knew not to miss the weekly ‘Manager’s Special’ pie. It became such a hit that even the local bakery felt threatened—but nobody minded, because free pie is always welcome.
