Weird promotional gifts

OK, so what is the weirdest promotional gift you have ever received?

One of the big UK tarantula dealers includes shop branded condoms with their postal deliveries. With one condom saying it offers the chance of more long term disposable income, while another suggests you wrap your Millipede in it.

I can’t say that I have ever received any promotional gifts, that one though is very strange indeed. Perhaps to promote ‘the chance of more long term disposable income’ element of it the promotors should have named it ‘money spider’ rather than tarantula!

Welllll…

Didn’t they use to make condoms out of spider silk???

How would that work? I knew the Romans used sheep’s intestines … ewe :wink::grin:

Well…maybe I misheard about the spider silk, perhaps it was fresh lettuce.

I did read many years ago that school kids were using choc bar wrappers as condoms, this was in the days before you could buy them in the supermarket.
