An Almost Forgotten Freebie

June 2, 2008

in UAE

I subscribed to TFC and e-vision last March and because of that I was given a free voucher for a digicam which is claimable until the 31st of May. I was not so excited to claim it since I already have a long trusted Casio digicam (may not be the best and not so fashionable one, but it serves its purpose, anyway). And since I got an iPhone, that cam actually became literally inactive because this Apple gadget is workable and is always on the go as an iPod, phone, iCam (is there such a thing? heehee).

Until a week before 31st of May, I was sorting out my receipts (I am not used to throwing them right away) and other papers on the bags’ pockets and something like that, only then I realized that I haven’t claimed the free digicam. Well, on a business side, right from the start I knew that it has an imputed cost and substance over form it is not actually free. Anyway, it’s free and is a perk as far as cable subscription is concerned. Let’s just leave it that way. So, finally the digicam was claimed on the last day. Gee, I almost forfeited my right to claim. Heck.

So I am (was) happy for a while thinking that it is a freebie. But honestly, I don’t know what to do with it. I initially just wanted to claim it because I hate the feeling of not taking the advantage and forfeiting a right intentionally or not. I checked the cam, okay it is an 8-megapixel unit (superb by 2 megapixels over my current cam), the installer is fair enough and aside from the intervideo media gallery and photo effects capability, you may use it as webcam (which I don’t care because I don’t need it so, aside from that I am not much, or not really, into YM). I already took few shots and they are reasonably good without the editing.

I put everything in the box again. So, I am planning to send this back home this August together with the laptop and other little stuff that I asked my friend to bring to my family/ cousin as she goes home for a vacation. You might have some freebies there that are also almost forgotten. Figure it out before it’s too late.
