So What Did Everyone Get For Xmas From A Sponsor?

[Greenguy]

1st off, let's not turn this into a spam fest by throwing up referral codes - no one is going to sign up to a sponsor because they hope to get a basket of cheese & dried sausage for Christmas :D

Every year, I get a couple of nice little presents from sponsors & I like to publically thank them. I think that most of the gifts have been delivered (except for one, which I will post about if I get it next week)

So thanks to the following sponsors for their Christmas gifts:

Sex Search for the iPod Mini
AEBN for the goodie basket
National Net for the nice bottle of Grey Goose
Dorm Bucks for the Holiday Bonus check
Bling Cash for the gift basket
Adult Plex for the cheese cake

I also got a lot of Xmas cards - way too many to post & I'm way too lazy to take them down from the "card wall" & type them all up :D But thanks for the cards too :)

So who'd you get a gift from & what was it?

The holiday bonus gifts ain't what they used to be.

I notice you don't mention my biggest sponsors, and all I seem to be getting from my sponsors this year is cards.

No big basket from CE- but I expected that, after they dropped HGV I figured I was SOL as far as Harry and David was concerned.

A mini ipod from sexsearch eh? Now that's cool.

[RawAlex]

Christmas in this business ain't what it use to be. Things use to pile up at the door... now it's just cards cards cards...

Alex

[Linkster]

Just lots of cards - although I heard that my biggest sponsor gave its other affiliates something I didnt hear squat from them so I guess being one of their top producers doesnt mean anything anymore

[cd34]

Netbilling took the time to email me holiday greetings.

Spicecash sent me (and my wife) a gift card for DVDs and a gift certificate for Victoria's Secret -- which is more of a gift for me anyhow. (I haven't opened them, but, these seem to be the traditional Christmas/Birthday gifts)

Wyldesites sent a Harry & David gift basket.

My accountant sent me a nice card (in an envelope separate from his invoice).

[Useless]

Just a few cards here. I'm far from being on the 'A' list though. Maybe next year.

[Agent]

I got some news letters and some e-mails saying i needed a bigger p4n1s 4 fr.ee.

Maybe next year!

[Ramster]

I didn't receive shit. LOL
Well, lots of cards actually and a few ICQs about getting together in Vegas. I hope they're buying. |drunk|

[plateman]

a few cards and a little desk top calender and adult lounge sent me a real nice shirt and a porn DVD a short while back for a stats misunderstanding that I had to point out so that dont count for xmas..

[amadman]

I didn't even get many cards this year.

I guess nobody loves me any more. |sad|

[Greenguy]

Well, now I feel like an ass for starting this thread :(

[Bill]

Dude, you're a super-affiliate, it's only natural that you're gonna get a few gifts.

Unless of course you're stealing our gifts. ;-} Greenguy - Grinch - anybody see a pattern here? ;-}

Did you get a CE basket yet? I haven't heard anyone talking about them so far this year.

If I ever start an affiliate program I'm going to make a point of including christmas gifts in the budget- I think it has a big effect on affiliate loyalty.

Margins are tight all over I guess. Internet porn isn't benefiting so much from the "business recovery", at least not so far.

[ladydesigner]

Just cards here. Oh yeah... ************* has sent me 3 desktop calendar's so far...

Merry Christmas everyone. |santa|

[GeorgeTH]

|skull| ...fucking didn't even get a single card! |skull|

Or were they all caught up in an Anthrax scare? Who knows?!?

[docholly]

....i got a rock...

|santa|

actually since like 75% of my sponsors are single amateur cam girls.. i prefer they give me the gift that keeps on giving.. access to their member sections where i snap up tons of content..

|rasta|

GG--nice haul.. and you've given at least tart and i something to aspire to.. maybe next year Big Al will send us a bonus.. LMAO.. |jester|

I haven't spoken about CE yet because my gift from them usually comes on Dec 30th or 31st <knock on wood> :D

[Cleo]

I got one card from someone who I can't remember since I just tossed it.

Damn Greenguy does get some nice stuff.

[Sumrpal]

I got a nice card from Black Dog Unlimited (Spread4U / WebCamCash)

Thanks Hazel :)

[Opti]

I'm glad it's not just me that got ignored this year!!

Was just saying a couple of days ago that I didn't really appreciate all the cards that used to arrive at xmas... until this year when only 3 came... and I was starting to want to see them when clearing the mailbox!



BTW... Merry Xmas Antipodeans!.. just past midnight in Sydney.

Santa just starting delivering down here |santa|

[Ramster]

Oh yea, I forgot about my Platinum Bucks calendar. And as everyone did I got 2 scratch tickets from TopBucks. I even won $2.00. :)

[Horny Dude]

A few cards and a hooker! She is still here eating my food and won't leave.|pissed|

[PK]

Slim pickings this year.

About 5 cards and a gift basket from AEBN. Most years there's been tons.

(sniffle) nobody wuvs me no mo

[tiny]

I got a 1.5 liter of Heineken BURP

[CrazySy]

Got some cards and calendars |santa|

[Jel]

I got an email from Sunny Dollars. Toying with printing it out and hanging it up.

[Trent Edison]

Little playas like me gettin nothing but Merry Christmas emails. Thanks Platinum Bucks for calendar though... LOL

[dirtyjumbo]

I got nada, zilch, zip.. :(

[selena]

I got a very pretty Christmas card from Webair.

But I'm a mere plankton in the vast sea of porn, so it never crossed my mind that I might get anything else.

Next year...my second year in porn...I'm shooting for the iPod. :D

[Greenguy]

I feel sorta bad adding to my list, but I'd also feel bad if I didn't mention the gifts I got today :)

WEG sent me a nice baskets of goodies (including a lot of chocolate covered Oreo's that have suddenly vanished)

Brain Cash sent me some nice Canadian Maple Syrup.

[Sumrpal]

Giving credit where credit is due, I also just received a beautiful card from the guys 'n gal at FlashCash.

:)

[Timbo]

A backpack to carry all the damn carbohydrates that were also delivered. Fuckers! :)

And what will the wonderful regular posters of GG&J be getting?

The crumbs of your leftovers?

|santa|

[Greenguy]

I believe we sent you your very own |buddy|

|couch|

[Alphawolf]

That's good and all, but I meant for Xmas. :D

[Greenguy]

Put a santa hat on him & pretend |santa|

|waves|

[Alphawolf]

|jester|

That would be fun.

But really...I could use this. (http://www.capresso.com/prod_super_jura.html)

Now, I like the S9, but I can live with the S7...if like...I really had to.

[Linkster]

Well while everyone is in such a great giving mood:

This is what I wantHere (http://www.calspas.com/bbqs/detail.asp?a=12)

:)

[MrYum]

A couple nice xmas cards here :)

Congrats Greenie on the very cool stuff...sounds like quite the haul!

Alphawolf...those machines are GREAT! I have a Jura E70...not quite all the bells and whistles of the ones you linked, but makes awesome coffee. Fresh brewed with a nice layer of crema on top...quite tasty! Pricey machines, but once you've had coffee from one of these...nothing else will do :)

Hmmm...time for a cup! lol

[maharaja]

some nice greetings cards.

I have the lowly C1000 that has seen better days.

That's why GG will be getting me a nice one. |roses|

[urb]

I won't name the sponsor, but they once sent me a new Epson Printer for Christmas.
|santa|

[Robbo]

I found a card in the po box today..nothing at the house. But the checks keep coming so all is good!

[emma_soji]

I think we got some gift thingy from aebn for making them a shit load of money. My friend who has a small site was over and noticed me opening what ever the gift was and says..hey, I dont get presents from my host or aebn.. heh

The coolest gift ive ever gotten was the massive godiva chocloate basket from Glo-bill a year or two ago..right before they ripped me off for prolly 2k...ho hum...pricey chocolates.

as long as Im going on and on.... how were post holiday sales for webmasters?... for me it always starts building the day after and then the next day 27th, same for this year, I just about soil myself with glee.. Gotta love those folks getting their new puters and going nuts buying subscriptions to websites... This great miracle continues into the new year and settles again...some..

Happy Holidays,

[bdld]

i just got some silly cards that went straight in the trash, i was expecting much more.

[Fonz]

Other than a few emails I got nothing this year, wonder what I did wrong this time.

So feel free to send me a gift or cash :)

[oceania]

Stan from moviedollars sent me wonderful italian cookies
and a copy of row homes (philadelphia)
where i really would love to go back to...

love you Stan!!!!!

Hey Linkster my ex wife took an early retirement from cal spas. They have killer discounts for emplyees.

I could give her a call and see if she still has any pull or a friend that would be willing to use their discount|santa|

wow, that are nice gifts

[deleuze]

Calendar from *************
Scratch Cards from TopBucks
$20 bonus from NicheWealth
Mousepad and pen from JuicyBucks

[Sumrpal]

Oceana?

Is that the beautiful and sexy woman I met at the New Orlean's Internext? Petite, dark hair? Very sexy lady

|bananna|

[dareutwo]

I don't have a clue - I don't get the mail.
Oldest son gets all the mail (225 miles away)
He hasn't said anything, so I'm guessing there was some good stuff in there he didn't bother tell me about. LOL

[KCat]

Hmmm...even my biggest, longest used sponsor didn't send a card this year. I hadn't really thought about it until I read this thread, but I do remember thinking that was sweet of them in the past. 'Course, they only send me wire transfers now, so maybe that's why.

I wonder what the gift basket comparison is like in mainstream before & after the dot com bust.

[Robbo]

Dareutwo you might want to see if anyone cashed any big Arizona lottery tickets from your area lately! hehe

I should add I got my scratch offs with my TopBucks check today. No winners but a nice gesture. Add that to the card from Python. I spread out quite a bit last year so probably did`nt cross many thresholds. That`s a good goal..sell enough to get xmas gifts from everyone!

[ecchi]

I mostly promote my own sites nowadays, and I must be a mean b*****d because I did not send myself anything :( |pissed|

[Presmar]

I got some nice cards ...guess I didn't send enough traffic to get the bigger gifts. Hey...the cards were nice though...what can I say?

[stuveltje]

got alot of cards, the scratch tickets from topbucks, 30 bucks from some avs sponsor, some writing stuff and some nice bonusses from the people i work for|waves|

[oceania]

Sumrpal
that was me ...
how nice of you to remember me
:)
come listen in and i'll make a special dedication just to you!|smooch|

[T Pat]

|waves| I'm listening to you right now Oceana do I get a kiss too?

I'm looking forward to the Humpday lunch show, it will be the first real news I've gotten from from Vegas

Maybe Ynot Bob and LAJay have seen Gabbo |jester|
(edit it's hell when you can't type or spell)

[oceania]

hey Pat
if i ever get my hands on you
i'll do more than kiss you
