So much swag arrived in the mail today.

It's funny how I end up paying for more stuff from a free app than from one of those freemium games that are so popular right now.

How about: mousepad on 1.5k ++?

How I got my first Free Swag?

I stole it?

Obviously no,

So it dates back to year 2016. After learning about open source project and working with few organisations, I noticed few contributors and developers with t shirts having logo of the company or organisation.
I mean if you see a guy wearing google tagged t shirt don't think he works in Google, he might have purchased it.

Next, I started searching for ways to obtain one. I reached and texted developers and all they told me were two golden rules.
1. If you develop something or update something, showcast it.
2. Always show the organisation what you do for them, even if it small contribution.

After this I started mailing and texting the contact mail id of companies and organisation I worked and contributed. Some texted me- no we don't have free items, some said we can't ship to India.

But out of 100 replies with 85 negatives, I recieved 15 positive replies. I was amazed to know that I'll recieve one.

You know what I was showered with
Stickers
T shirts
Laptop skins
Keychains
And many more.....

This Rant is for you to motivate and showcast what you do.
