Sometimes you see something and you think, “Can that be true?“ Apparently Google rewarded some of their bigger advertisers with this little dandy of a logo item. It’s a mini-fridge. Actually it is so cool that it both cools and warms things depending on your preference. Also, it comes with a car connector for using it on the road.
I can’t lie. I want one. I use Google docs. Google’s homepage, iGoogle. I use Adwords and Adsense. I use Analytics. I use Feedburner. I use their search engine. I use their mobile apps. Essentially, I am a Google-phened webdork. And I think the Google Fridge would compliment the rest of my Google stuff.
So what would I do if I had a Google Fridge?
I’d proudly display it in my office. I don’t truly have a need for it. But as the standing internet guy on our staff, I’d like to display it so that I can solidify my status permanently. I just plain want the thing.
And I started thinking about the other ad companies and wondered what they are giving high rollers? What would it take for me to display one of their promo items in my office? I mean, I do have standards. So how much of a freebie would it take for me to take the ribbing of having their products in my office? I mean, I can be bought… so here’s what it would take. (You can see how much I like these companies.)
- Yahoo! Plasma TV… I’d put that up.
- Linkshare MacBook Pro… sure.
- Amazon Associates digital photo frame… I’d rock that.
- Auctionads Bose… OK, I’d do it for that.
- Microsoft adCenter Toyota Prius… only if it were dark when I came to work.
What about you? When it comes to freebies, what are your standards?
