Did any participant (who had a vlaid entry and the entry got published on Indiblogger) receive the 'Ring The Bell' mug?

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

No, I didn't receive it. And I think no else received it. If that was the case, someone would have posted a photo of the mug here. Wink

Nandini Stop crying. Renie is thinking of sending you a mug filled with masala dosa. Tongue out

Madhu Bhardwaj
from NOIDA |

After several trial and error methods, this finally worked.

Thanks @Ranjith, you understood that the question was angled toward you. :)

Nandini Deka

Ranjith

Is that a picture of the mug or the scene from your window? Tongue out I liked it a lot - the greenery Smile

Madhu Bhardwaj
from NOIDA |

@Ranjith the coveted mug is resting on the boundary wall of our house. Yes, there is lot of greenery around. Thanks.

I received the mug it was broken, it was the first thing i ever received for my writing skills the broken mug has really broken my heart, kind of making me superstituous.

Bluedart should be taken up for such shoddy service.

My family received the Mug yesterday and the handle was broken  :( 

Can't sip coffee in it, will use it for holding pens. :)

This is what i got today!!! but I'm hopeful Renie would send a new one someday [wink]

Avadhoot
from Jabalpur |

I don't know what is the better proposition- Getting a broken mug or not getting it at all !!! Innocent

Anunoy Samanta
from Bardhaman |

Avadhoot sahb aap bhi [measured Smile]

Fairy Princess

This is so bad and unprofessional!

Anunoy Samanta
from Bardhaman |

Sfurti, considering that you haven't received this mug yet, I'm planning to share 1/3rd of it with you...phir tum bhi 'happy' ho jaogi [wink]

Anunoy Samanta
from Bardhaman |

yes Pankti, the packaging part was just nil... mug was so nice...I loved it [heart-broken Smile]... but anyway I'm never going to part with my all-time favorite red-coffee-mug [wink]

Fairy Princess
from Delhi |

AS, it's good you can joke about it. In your place, my reaction would have been bad; I hate the unprofessional approach that I am seeing a lot over here.

Anunoy Samanta
from Bardhaman |

but as you know I'm a coward I can't react in your way, though I would have loved to [wink]

Nandini Deka
from Bombay |

i think something heavy was kept on top of these boxes of mugs....delicate items shud have 'handle with care' warning sign on their packaging....i wonder if they forgot to do thatUndecided

Sfurti Juztamom
from Mumbai |

Arey it was for a noble cause. I don't care about professionalism. Infact since they obviously lack the sense of packaging I think they shouldn't have offered anything in return. Infact they shouldn't in future offer anything.

No one wrote anything for these mugs. Let's all forget the mug!

Fairy Princess
from Delhi |

Sfurti, you are right that none of us wrote for mug. My only problem is saying something not following it through. Even if they hadn't promised a mug, I would have written about it. The problem is not doing the things properly.

Sfurti Juztamom
from Mumbai |

PAnkti I agree with you totally, but saying all of us should let go of the mug OR the dream of the mug...It was for a good cause, Chaddo yaar!!

Nandini Deka
from Bombay |

i dont think they'd break them on purpose, its a pure case of poor packaging by IB or whoever packed and mishandling by the courier company, we didnt write for the mugs...but they'd have been a cute momento having participated

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

Stop fighting. Tongue out All of you will get new mugs. Laughing

Ranjith

Annunoy, Pankti, Sfurti, Vijay, Nandini, Avadhoot, Renie, Arti, Hemal, Sorcerer, TF and NANDINI

Sfurti Juztamom

Ranjith you are dizzy out of hunger I think. Go eat Dosa Tongue out

Nandini Deka
from Bombay |

why u took my name twice??Innocent

Anunoy Samanta
from Bardhaman |

Firstly, nobody is fighting here... secondly it is like the 'feel good' certificate you get after blood donation, so 'feel good' items are always priceless aren't they?... thirdly, may be they should have sent us a token of appreciation card or something instead of a heavy mug, even that would have saved postal charge... cheers guys [smile]

Don't throw away those broken mugs. Use your creativity to make a good looking showpiece from it. Smile

Madhu Bhardwaj
from NOIDA |

hmmm, i could smash it into smaller pieces and stick them on a white tile to make something which I will then throw away. :)

Or, we could send all the broken mugs to the creator of the Rock Garden in Chandigarh. He has created amazing things with broken stuff.
