I have half an update... the hampers are with the packaging company now, and there is a bit of confusion with regards to it's contents. We're sorting that out now, and we should have an ETA on their dispatches tomorrow.

The vouchers will take sometime to be dispatched - my estimate is a week at the least. We're trying to speed it up, and again, I should have a clearer ETA on that tomorrow!

@Shilpi - It happens.... But I wish I get them before I fly back to NY. I want to sing, 'Mera joota hai Hindustani' wearing those Nike shoes on 7th Avenue :P

So the packaging company informed us that the hamper is very small, and that all the items inside are very small. (25 Gms of toothpaste, is what they told us!) So we shouted at the agency, the agency shouted at Colgate, Colgate shouted back, and there was a whole lot of shouting all around. At the end of it all, the packaging company says - oops, we made a mistake, they're actually quite big, and the toothpaste is 140 gms. Yell

Anyways, the current update on the hampers is - they're being re-packaged because Blue Dart is not happy with the present packaging, and they will be sent out shortly thereafter.

I'll get back to you guys on the vouchers in an hour or two!
