Hey! I just got a Google beach towel for being a good adwords advertiser (and to let me know that they upgraded and that I might want to spend more money ;) ). Very fluffy. Anyone else get a nice summer gift?

I just went to the beach a few weeks ago but my kids will love taking this to the pool for the remainder of summer.

Thanks Google!

My towel came today via DHL. It's very nice. My client with the biggest Adwords program spends $2k+/mo, but I manage bunches of Adwords programs for various clients, so Google may have noticed my name and address in their database many times.

Beach towels are cool, but I still think my "I'm Feeling Lucky" boxer shorts are cool; and by cool, I mean totally sweet.

Not towel here yet. We've averaged $9000/month so far this year.

Here's a good question:

What address do they send to? The only address field I can find in the AdWords interface is our billing address.

Since we didn't get any toys at Christmas either, I'm wondering if they still have our old webmaster's mailing address on file for the account, and he's getting all the cool stuff. Hmmm...

I've not got nothing either :(

Only had my account running since June though so maybe it's a bit too early to be expecting some Google goodies. Can't wait till Christmas though ;)

I got my last Thursday. I'm not sure how it got there since my husband took delivery. I was very confused as I didn't remember ordering anything besides the eBay package that showed up at the same time.

I had averaged about $1400/month before pausing all ad groups early in July. At this point all of the keywords I could afford have been indexed, and those that hadn't blew through a $50 Overture credit in a couple of hours!

I got these cool pens from google, that can change color. Its a clear pen, that has 3 leds, in the top. By pressing a button you can get the LEDS to cycle throught the different primary & secondary colors

If one gets sent to my office it is going to the pres. He is the one with the name/credit card on file )c:

It goes to my email address though.

What kind of packaging does it come in? I want to intercept it.

My fiance intercepted mine because it came while I was out of town.

She absolutely 'loves it' and wanted to know I could 'get some more'

If she only knew how much that towel cost me........

Starting today, the rest of you guys in WWM can order a can item directly from me, a T-Shirt which reads:

'I spent $10,000 on (your choice of Adwords or Overture) and all I got was this lousy T-Shirt.'

** Please specify that advertiser of your choice when you place your order.

Yours for only $19.95, plus $10.00 shipping. Plus if you order within the next hour, I'll include a free widget ($89.95 retail value)with your order, so ACT NOW
