Update on Promotion Rewards

Previously I wrote about getting freebies for activities I was already planning to do - i.e. double dipping. Here is an update on the status of the rewards for participating.

	Update on Freebies
Promotion Sponsor	Reward	Submitted	Status
TD Ameritrade	IPod Nano for opening and funding a new account with $10,000	February 14, 2007	Received a silver 2GB IPod Nano on April 13, 2007.
Mazda	$25 Visa Gift Card for test driving any Mazda.	March 9, 2007	No information. No test drive was done since a Mazda RX-8 wasn't available.
Chevy	$25 Best Buy Gift Card for for test driving a Chevy HHR.	March 31, 2007	No information. I enjoyed driving a loaded HHR, which is a new SUV crossover design. MSRP was about $23,000.
Ford	$50 Target Gift Card for for test driving a Ford Edge.	April 16, 2007	No information. I enjoyed driving an upper tier Edge, which is a new SUV crossover design. MSRP as about $32,000.

Since these were activities I was already planning to do, the promotion is a nice additional bonus. However, now that I qualified for each promotion, I am tracking them until the bonuses are received :-)
