... "No Coke. Pepsi. We switch." vbg

I'm at work last Thursday (Home Depot) and it's pretty hot out. I'm operating what's called an "Order Picker." That's basically a portable elevator that let's you move stuff from the top shelf to the sales floor. Lots of fun working 16' in the air, next to the flat roof, especially when the AC isn't turned on. I'm hot, sweaty, and a little cranky because no one else is working very hard. I come down, get off the machine, turn around, and see Aaron, a former HD employee. Nice kid, hard worker, habitually cheerful, and smart. Really smart because he left HD about 5 years ago to go to work for a local Pepsi bottler. So, we shoot the breeze for a few minutes then he asks me if I still collect chips. He hands me four of the chips below. No information on them. He found them in the office and remembered that I collect chips. Drove all the way from Derry to Manchester just to give me these chips. Hey Aaron, you're a NICE BUNNY!

Does anyone have any idea what these chips are? Modern plastic chips, but well made and heavy. They appear to be some sort of Pepsi in-house chip. Some kind of employee contest? I've never seen them before, not even on eBay.

Anyway, I kept the red and blue chips for my advertising chip collection. The two shown below, gray and black, are for trade for other advertising chips, old or modern. I think these Pepsi chips are pretty unusual so I need a decent trade. Thanks for looking.
