Let's see:

I wrote to Pamper's b/c the tabs on the custom cruisers were breaking off. They sent me coupons for 2 free Jumbo packs of diapers.

I also wrote to Hostess b/c I went to buy a package of Ho-Ho's out of the office vending machine and there were only three instead of 4 ho-ho's in the package (and I must say, that day I was mighty irritated b/c I wanted ALL my ho-ho's! ). Hostess sent me coupons (3, I think) for any free product. I used it to buy bread.
Answer:

I was reading everyone's posts on the old board and it inspired me to contact some companies! The only things I've gotten so far are: Anheuseur-Busch sent me 2 keychains and two coolie cups, and Gerber sent me a bunch of coupons for baby food and stuff.

I e-mailed a bunch of companies so I'm hoping to see more coupons!
Answer:

I just emailed glad wrap. I got a bad roll of the press n seal. It sealed to itself on the roll!!! So, I emailed them, and a coupon for a free roll is on the way. I CAN still use this roll, too. You just have to have muscles to get it off the roll!! I also have recently contacted Kelloggs over a pop tart issue..free box of them through a coupon solved it. Oh, and when I colored my hair back in Feb. and it turned green...well, it cost me a ton to get it fixed professionally, but Clairol did send me a coupon for a free box. There ain't NO WAY I am using their products again, so that coupon is still sitting on my dresser!!
