Either I didn't read the ad right, or the contest wasn't ready when they published the Oct. RW. After an email or two, the people at Coolmax admitted that the contest wouldn't be ready until Sept. 7. Just then, I read the post by Shut Up and Run and figured out that I was pre-mature (go for it anyone who wants it). I waited and sometime the morning of the 7th I tried, along with 30,000 others, to get my free pair of socks. You guessed it, they ran out. Shut Up and Run figured out a way to get more than one pair, and I'm sure her post helped others, so 30,000 pairs went to less than 30,000 runners. Hmmm. Here was the email from Melanie at Goldtoe:

Thanks Melanie at Gold toe!!! Employee of the year! Hey, I'm a fan already and am looking forward to the free socks. Easy customer service and simply the right thing to do. Look for the product review in 8-12 weeks. What's your latest customer service experience good or bad?

Wow! That's awesome!! I tried getting through like 70 times and then when I finally did get through, it said that they had run out and it was over! lol... bummer for me! :(
There is nothing better than a free pair of running socks! Awesome that you were able to snag a pair:)
Blisters on tips? Pre-mature? Half naked lady!?!?!
How did you get in my brain, Jeff? HOW???
Yay for free socks. Great customer service is so rare these days, they deserve a shout out!
i just ordered a couch online through a big blog world retailer... and when i researched the order it said 7-10 delivery and there were several instock. after placing the order, shipping time was bumped up to 10-30 days... hmm not the same. I'll be sitting on the floor for a while waiting for a couch to show up.
