Letter Writing Works

In case you weren't already convinced, I thought I'd share another example of how expressing your opinion to a company about its products is quite often effective.

I recently ate a bag of Terra Chips that I was not quite enthused with. The overall flavor was good, but they were much too salty. As I was about to throw the bag away, I noticed a statement on the back that I should write to them and send the empty bag if I wasn't completely satisfied. So I did.

In a few weeks, I received a letter, two coupons for a free, full-sized bag of Terra Chips, and two coupons for 55 cents off. Since I have been eating a lot of Terra Chips lately and they aren't cheap, I'm quite happy about the coupons.
