Why would I pay money for a shirt thats gonna do nothing but advertise their company? I understand that they have good products, and such, but thats what we're already paying for. the price of the products we buy, go towards their advertising. They dont need us to advertise for them, and they sure as hell dont need us to pay them to wear their logos. If they want me to wear stuff with their name on it, and basically be a walking/driving billboard for their company, then they can pay me for that, or compensate me in free products, etc.Ive gotten free stuff from (said) companies before. but (especially in this case) for the most part, it doesnt come free. In response to an announcement they (AM) made, I did some graphic work for them as part of a "contest", in-return for a free product. Was it really free? No. Sure it didnt cost me anything, but I could have easily sold them my time and services for cash-value instead of a product.</blockquote>
