[Organized Chaos]

I received another freebie today. Only my 2nd ever, both from Pinecone. It's the 2nd one they've given me in just over a month, not bad considering I never get them. This most recent one only took 5 days to arrive after the survey. I had to laugh because they never used to get me my checks that fast.

Their surveys have always asked me if the manufacturer sent me the product, would I be willing to test it. I always said yes but never got anything till last month. I hope this is a lasting trend.

Anyway, it's a pack of new Trident Layers gum. Wild Strawberry & Tangy Citrus flavor. I knew it was from Pinecone from the shipping label, but couldn't remember what I took the survey on...until I opened the package and could smell it. Yum!

I got a check for $10.00 for Synovate (Global Opinion Panels) and a free sample from Quaker Oats for their mini's. Yumy!(I got the chocolate ones)

I received my Buzz kit for the Palmolive soap challenge. Unfortunately when the box was delivered to my house is was soaking wet and sticky. When I opened the box I was greated with soap everywhere. Apparently the bottle of soap has exploded and the soap ran over everthing. Needless to say, I had to toss the whole kit into the garbage. I contacted Jono to see if I could get another kit but he said they didn't have any left. He would send me some coupons instead. Don't think I will be participating unless the coupon he is sending is for another free bottle. Bummer!!
