  • Why not?.........

    Here are some reasons off the top of my head:

    1) because it makes you a free walking advertisement for a company
    2) because it'll probably just end up in a cupboard somewhere, never used
    3) it's a waste of resources- if we stopped ordering crappy, useless freebies then companies would stop making them and more natural resources would be saved.

    Complaining about a freebie is a waste of your valuable time ... it's only going to provoke crappy, useless forum arguments. :D

    This is a Swedish bakery who makes almond cakes. Tårta = Cake (most of the time it means birthday cake, but the cakes on the site seems to refer to cake in general.) Tårtoholic basically means cakeoholic. So if you want a badge that says you love Almond cake and can't get enough of it it might be worth applying for a badge (or if you collect badges)

    Thanks for the explanation. I thought a "tartoholic" was something different entirely. :D
