This week I am at a conference which is mildly interesting in topic, but oh so interesting to watch people and procure swag- what vendors use to lure you into their booth for a freebie, and then hopefully get you to recognize their brand and learn about their product.
Today I am now the proud owner of four new t-shirts, three new bags, a journal, a pad of paper, a pen and a myriad of brochures. I only had to sit through two lectures, about five sales speeches, and lots of pretending to be interested to procure my new wardrobe and writing gear. Not to bad for a day of work, and I have two more to go! Now I did actually learn about some of the major vendors in this field, as well as learn a few neat things as well, however the free stuff is a welcome benefit.
