$39 experiment - free stuff please
Imagine taking a roll of stamps. $39. 100 stamps.
Sending 100 letters to companies asking for freebies.
That's what Tom Locke did. And he wrote it all up here.
Tom, very amusing, very creative -- get a hobby dude :)
My favorite letter is to Hormel below. Did they send him anything - see his website for details.
Dear Sir or Madam:
I love your products. Well, I'm actually not too crazy about Spam. The meat is a little too... can-shaped... for my taste. It's a little creepy. Anyway. I am writing to you because I am a chili connoisseur, and I love your chili. Please send me all of the free chili samples you can, without getting yourself into trouble for giving away too much free chili to a guy like me. Thank you well in advance,
Tom Locke, chili enthusiast
