SNA has gold stock in their hallway chickens, but not at the ticket counter.
SFO has gold stock in some of their chickens in the customer service center by gate 80.

DSM has common shared-use kiosks for all airlines that spit out toilet paper. Agents give common white card stock that do not say UNITED in the upper left hand corner.

Seems like card stock is being phased out, sadly -- and was thinking it would be cool to have a thread to track which hubs/stations do and don't still have card stock
Appreciate input from fellow FTers with attention to detail for this travel perk/quirk

SFO GAs give gold stock. I usually OLCI for outbound from SFO, but I got UDU on outbound to SEA and GA gave me gold cardstock BP.

LAX T6 still doing proper stock behind the counter as of last Wednesday.
YYZ still doing card stock, and I got gold stock this last time, after a couple trips (one in E+ and one in F) on blue. GTAA shared chickens seem to do toilet paper.
SFO gate stock was white again.
I saw a few people at SFO yesterday carrying toilet paper. They might have been connecting, but it was probably 3-4.

I just had the same experience. 2 weeks ago at YYZ counter, got blue card stock. Yesterday aft., got gold stock again. I know better than to use the YYZ kiosk's due to the toilet paper BP's that spit out.

At MSP a few weeks ago I got a gold card stock BP from the chicken at the elite check-in counter, and white card stock for my wife from the agent behind the counter.

Ditto. Was in BOS yesterday. Carry-on chickens gave gold stock. I also quite liked how every check in station at BOS had a kiosk in front of it. The whole United check-in area looked pretty sleek.

I like the little check-in island there as well. AC had the same setup just across the way, before they moved to Terminal B.
