For the past few years Google has been sending me a Christmas gift. It’s always exciting to see what will show up.
A couple of years ago it was a huge Google Beach Towel. You might notice the small hole in the upper right hand corner of the towel. It has had some use. 
Then last year it was a pack full of cool goodies such as a cordless Google mouse, a 4 port Google USB Hub, a Google Thumb drive, Google headphones, and a USB flashlight.
This year Google sent be a really cool 2 GB Flash Drive that is slightly larger than a credit card!
Along with the flash drive Google sent a $100 gift card for making a donation to DonorsChoose.org. Pretty cool.
You might be wondering how much you have to spend with Google in order to receive a Christmas gift? At the moment I personally spend anywhere from $6,000 to $9,000 a month with Google Adwords. I think that is going to increase a lot next year as I refocus on more PPC marketing profits.
I think your specific gift also depends on how much you spend because there are some getting even bigger gifts such as a mini Google refrigerator.
Thanks Google!

Wow! those were some great gifts,I really liked the second one.
Wish you good luck for 2008!
I have also been using adwords for sometime now. I never thought google will send us Christmas gifts. So kind of them in this regard. We i don’t spend more than 1000$ per month. 6000$ per month is still a long way for me. Congrats!
are you saying PPC is making you a lot of money and google loves you for that. i hope i will have some money in the future to try PPC. if you are in internet marketing you got try it at least once.
Google’s sent some pretty cool gifts your way. I wouldn’t mind getting one of those Google mini-fridges :).
6k - 9k per month? I would sent you that mini-fridge no problem - full with google beer !
totally sick! I never knew Google gave out gifts. All I get is xmas cards
I’ll have to work on spending $xxxx next year at Google hehe
Last year’s package looks awesome. I wonder why Google doesn’t send something cooler, like a wristwatch or Google branded iPod socks.
Wow…cool gadgets. Make me want to spend on AdWords
Very nice, wonder when they’ll start sending me stuff
I spend from $3000 to $5000. Must have just missed the mark. I just got the card. Pretty cool though for friends who don’t know what I do. They think I’m special to get a card from Google. LOL
Shame, my Google gift appears to have gone AWOL this year.
Lovely gifts from Mighty Google. To bad its only for those who spend on adwords
Oh man. I wan a Google Mini Fridge!
OR how about a Google house or Google car? Hmmm….
I wonder when Google will send some present to me.
Do you know if there is any requirement?

I’m still waiting on my Google gear.
I guess one has to spend over $5,000 a month with Google Adwords to get those gadgets from them. Wow Tim! You are an Adsense fanatic. Nice gifts though! Javier.-
We’re currently ramping up our PPC campaigns, we were at around $800/mo in Oct 2007, and have tripled that to $2,400/mo right now. Hopefully that puts me well in line for some cool stuff next year. I wonder what the cutoff is?
Very nice gifts. But i think they give the gifts according to geographic location. I did not receive what you got there. Instead mine was a Google mini fridge.
I’m loving the towel. Wow I can’t believe you spend that much but it must be worth it or you wouldn’t be doing it. You blog is an inspiration.
