surprise freebies from ethical juicers

Well after the poor company were inundated last week by over 12,000 requests for their free product offer and had to cancel it sharpish they started frantically searching for more freebies from wherever they could get them.They now have a surprise freebie offer on.
Looks like all publicity is good publicity after all:D
I really have to congratulate them on the way they handled what could have been a big problem for them and turned it around to make the best of it.
Really,really nice people at ethical juicers:D .

Heres a snippet from their home page(you have to scroll down a bit to see it)

    I originally posted the link here & was a little worried incase i got in trouble,but glad i bought attention to the site which is great.
    Other sites then copied from here & posted it on other freebie sites & they was in updated with orders,I only hope that they get orders from all this.
    Do you think i should contact them & own up?
    I really didn't think it would get so out of control & because this site gives me so much i wanted to give something back.
    Also Ethical Juicers are a really genuine company that reeally cares about the enviroment & their customers.
    They could contact Royal Mail & ask if they could send them out free of charge or a discount.
    Does anyone think I was wrong for sharing this?
    Also I have been nominated by a few people if it arrives for post of the month if i do & i don't think i stand a chance but if i do i will share it out with charities.

  • No I do not think you were wrong Whitty as nothing there to say is not open to others etc.
    They have had massive publicity through all this and they handled the situation well also,and I have received a newsletter from them,I will not buy a juicer though there will be people out there who will and it will benefit them
    Even if it was a shock when they opened there emails :rotfl::D

    hmmm, fair enough but I wouldn't expect the to start spamming the email addresses used to sign up for the freebie?

    I've had three so far in, what, a week?

    I emailed and said I was guilty of applying :o and got a nice email back.

    Shame they dont sell lower price products I would buy and use ie. the product they were offering as freebie as I would buy from them because after being bombarded with 12000+ emails and still taking the time to reply to me I think they are nice people to deal with. :D
