(Tamar Weinberg is a) Schwag Addict

Oh! Nuts, a really awesome totally Kosher candy store based in New York, sent me this awesome Purim basket of candy schwag.

Included in the batch: raspberry flavored Hamentashen (just in time for the Purim holiday), bubblegum flavored jelly beans, Jalapeño pistachios, rock candy, smoked almonds, and roasted flavored mixed Jordan almonds.

Thanks guys!

It’s nice to have a good group of friends who like sending their crap swag to you via mail. When your neighbors always get packages, I guess you get jealous and want to join them. That was kind of the impetus for schwag addict since I live in a big apartment complex and there are always boxes in the hallway and none of them ever were for me Now you know where it all comes from.

In this post, I’d like to thank SEO and tech blogger Charlie Anzman for this little token of appreciation for all that is good in the world of schwag, because he sent me a very cool Network Solutions pen.

The cool factor: it lights up and stuff.
The uncool factor: because of movement while in transit, the battery is almost dead. Ah well. It still rocks!

Thanks Charlie!

Kimberly at Crestline custom imprinted products sent me such a nice letter which included a bunch of very cool stuff, including a pen with my name engraved on it! That was the shocker, and it was totally unexpected but awesome.

First came the custom imprinted flip-flops. Thankfully, I have smaller feet than my husband so this works out well.

Then came the Chameleon Cup. When I poured water in it, it turned blue!

Now you’re probably wondering what that little guy is. This is the Easy Squeezy Stress Reliever. I’ve included a video of what you hear when you squeeze the cute little guy. (Please don’t mind the shaky hands! I only have 2 and one holds a camera!)

Finally, Mr. Easy Squeezy accompanied me with the pens Crestline also sent me. The custom imprinted Bravado pen has my name on it! Wicked!

Thanks Crestline!

Michael Dorausch, an awesome Los Angeles chiropractor who loves the Internet and has an amazing chiropractic and Internet Marketing blog, likes sending me schwag. I don’t complain. His schwag is pretty damn cool.

In this recent package I received, I got some very cool stuff, including a Media Temple shirt (and stickers! Stickers rock!). Good thing I just moved my other blog over to (mt).

There’s a Yahoo pen, a Yelp! stick, a bag from whatever event he attended, a Magento stress ball, and a mousepad. There’s also half-eaten Firefox stickers that Michael got and mailed me a few months ago.

Thanks Michael for the uber awesome hookup!

As many of you may or may not know, I write for technology and productivity blog Lifehacker. Well, I was lucky enough to get one of these shirts before their store ran out of them. (There are still limited sizes left!)

Here I am:

Many thanks to Gina and Scott for the hookup.
