Remember when Gevalia used to send a free coffee maker and carafe when you ordered coffee from them? I do.

This client took advantage of that give away, as we found multiple carafe’s, multiple coffee makers and they had stock piles of Gevalia Coffee in the cupboard. It definitely lead to interesting conversations during our downsizing, and organizing sessions.

We talked about how good the coffee was. How expensive it is now and of course, how companies cannot and will not give away this type of merch any more. For some people, that’s a good thing. We often find collections (dozens, hundreds) of freebies, in mini hoards, that were offered back in the day.
