and complain about product quality, they will send you coupons for free product.
phillip morris at one time would send coupons for cartons of cigarettes if you wrote a letter to the address on the sides of packs of marlboros. they have since discontinued this practice and only send 5 packs, but now you have to give your SSN.

2. "Your product was shit! Send me some free in compensation!!" |
|
:shrug:
Of course, it's a good ploy for something that you DO like. "Hey, Cadbury, your Easter cream eggs are like eating shit - send me a gross of 'em!!"

5. Sometimes it works well... |

I like the Green Giant frozen veggies in sauces; but I once got a bag that just didn't taste right. It might have been defrosted then refrozen or something like that. I called the number and got vouchers for 2 free bags.

3. well, I know I am a cheapskate and all |
|
but for me the price of an item figures into the equation of enjoyment for some things.
In other words, I will sit through an awful movie at the dollar theater that I would not even go see for full price.

Except with that stuff, they'd make you return the unused portion.
