My free gift for registration.
Just got my mail and found my registration gift. Not the free week for two to Paris I was hoping for, but a fun idea.
|
Gift???? I'll register again ;)
|
So Patrick, not even a hint?<BR><BR>You used to post your email address but they are gone now. I have some non-Europe questions I'd like to ask. Would you mind emailing me? ([email protected])
|
Those of you who remember the Fodors pin from a couple of years ago, that's the free gift, but this time in an envelope with bubble-wrap.
|
No, no hints. I don't want to spoil the "surprise" for the others.<BR> <BR>To Elizabeth: it was an offer of a free gift to the first 300 (I think that was the number) to register.<BR><BR>Grasshopper: I have always enjoyed the personal emails I have received and thought about still adding my email address -- and no I have never received "nasties" or spam as a result. However, since registration one of the obnoxious creeps on the US board didn't like the idea that I called him on his exaggeration that the new board was nothing but Hawaii and Key West posts (actually 5 of the first 50 were) so he posted a message for anyone with any problems to contact me and listed my email address.<BR><BR>I will email you with mine. But for others, it is [email protected]

Hey, elberko, that's not the gift I got!!!
|
That's interesting Patrick.<BR><BR>I already HAD a pin, so I was kinda disapointed. Since they vary, you might as well tell us.
|
My prezzie for being one of the first 300 to register arrived today, too..... and it wasn't a Fodors pin. :-)
|
OK, it's a little plastic case of four sheets of tiny tear apart magnets with words on them -- for spelling out things on the refrigerator. Contains words like lots of world cities, "quaint", "enjoy", "watering-hole", "5star", "enjoying", "travel", and "went". But there are very few verbs to make true sentences.
|
I received my free gift last week. It wasn't the Fodors pin (already had one of those), but I'm not quite sure what I'm supposed to do with it. I won't describe it and spoil the surprise for anyone else who's still waiting. It sounds like the gifts are not all the same though.
|
My pin is sounding better. At least I know what to do with it!
|
Cool! Something to look forward to when I get home to the mail!
|
May take a while before my gift arrives in Belgium ...
|
Hey Patrick, I think you're supposed to make spontaneous poetry with the magnet set. It's great at parties when people are hanging out in the kitchen (you know how they do that?). The next morning you will find some new compositions. Anyway, I do think that's a fun idea for a gift, more so than a pin or cap or T-shirt. Too bad I wasn't one of the 1st 300. :-(
|
<BR>Kavey, topping this for you! ;o)<BR><BR>By the way, I wasn't among the first 300. Never mind, because I don't even remember, where my pin has gone. Must be lost somewhere in a drawer.
|
I still have my pin but it digs in so much I don't wear it. I don't tend to wear pins on coat lapels etc.<BR><BR>I wonder what I will get...<BR><BR>Thanks Ursula!!
