Some how, the kids of my Race Course road neighbourhood heard that you get the whole set and exchange for some monetary value of a big some. We pestered our parents to buy this milk, and we guzzled down the milk. We swapped our pictures and hen we finally got the album complete, Mum went to see the salesman.<br /><br />She came back and said it was a hoarse. It was an exercise to encourage kids to collect the pictures the same ay e collect stamps.<br /><br />We were all ripped off. <br /><br />Did you townies get rip off too?Ann, Chen Jie Xue 陈洁雪https://www.blogger.com/profile/04399207312968010460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4765555411888082127.post-20016097035529734282012-02-09T17:14:19.666+08:002012-02-09T17:14:19.666+08:00you did a lot of laundry?you did a lot of laundry?Ann, Chen Jie Xue 陈洁雪https://www.blogger.com/profile/04399207312968010460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4765555411888082127.post-46467252494395564802012-02-09T13:39:10.229+08:002012-02-09T13:39:10.229+08:00Hi Pumba..I know this could be a nickname..from he...Hi Pumba..I know this could be a nickname..from he Lion King.

They're quite heavy and the weight has been hard on the cabinets that we used to have. but they're still hardy and good quality plate. My mother never told us the story of her collection or how she collected them -.- i will get her to tell me. it's probably Gipo soap as well.The Observerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17509239951070358013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4765555411888082127.post-49973784948094557682012-02-08T08:11:17.209+08:002012-02-08T08:11:17.209+08:00Hi Sunflower..yes it is lovely to collect the good...Hi Sunflower..yes it is lovely to collect the good freebies. I normally target the collectibles and give away the plastic containers to friends who like them. Detergents still offer good freebies. My toothpaste Sensodyne gave me a nice container this time. Many go for the free pail with detergent last year. I like the plates (more plates) which came with Darlie..because they have Snoopy in differfent cities of the world. I managed to collect three and the stock ran out. That's my problem...Can't use so much toothpaste..and have to get the largest ones too!! It is really amusing!! And on top of that I like to have half a dozen of plates etc...must give up this addiction.Ensuraihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05201156760287157665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4765555411888082127.post-70880206001409144202012-02-08T05:04:22.368+08:002012-02-08T05:04:22.368+08:00Those were the good old days!

I think my mum and sis-in-laws had collected quite a few of these 'freebies' crockery, plastic containers etc buying detergents and cooking oil. <br /><br />Do they still do this kind of promotions in Sarawak or Brunei these days?<br /><br />I am quite sure the family still have the same pattern plates as the one shown above.Sunflowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09249656998055039839noreply@blogger.com
