Free T-Cellular Tuesdays’ reward to subscribers discovered on the market inside thrift retailer

As you would expect from a company that puts its logo on everything, the pint glass has the iconic white “T” trademark on it. This way, every time you consume a beverage using the glass, you’ll have T-Mobile on your mind. This is such great marketing by T-Mobile especially since it kills two birds with one stone. On one hand, it is making its subscribers feel good by giving away a highly coveted reward. At the same time, the carrier is marketing its brand as anyone who sees the pint glass will immediately think of T-Mobile.
However, a picture posted on Reddit the other day has some people wondering about how much those pint glasses were truly loved by T-Mobile subscribers. The photo shows five of the glasses inside their gift boxes sitting inside a Habitat for Humanity Store. These are similar to thrift stores and sell used items donated by people and new items donated by companies. Either a T-Mobile subscriber didn’t want the pint glass and donated it to the store, or T-Mobile itself made the donation.

Apparently T-Mobile subscribers were doing less drinking last year as some stores had leftover boxes of the glasses. One employee who works in a  T-Mobile store said that his location still has five boxes in the back of his store. Considering that the picture shows five boxes inside the Habitat for Humanity Store, perhaps this T-Mobile employee should check to see if the five boxes he saw are still in the back of his store.

Some of the wireless provider’s customers loved the free reward. One subscriber wrote on Reddit, “I love mine. I went in the 1st day & I had a pink jacket on & they gave me two for my spirit.” Another had a suggestion for T-Mobile to consider. “Stop handing out free junk and keep monthly prices on service down instead.” More subscribers probably would prefer paying lower prices each month rather than helping the carrier promote its brand.
