So, have you got yours yet, and what were they?
I got a beach bag, a beach ball, a paddling pool, armbands and a road atlas. Tastefully branded of course.
Better than last year's effort which was plastic backpacks for the DC and a horrendous singalong CD.

Nothing received, but nothing expected as we booked direct with the campsite and saved so much money that we could have filled the car with none branded plastic tat (which we duly did)

LOL
The beach ball will probably come with us, the rest will gather dust.
Where are you going [nosey]?

Our campsite doesn't come with freebies...unless you count the sand, grass, gravel and pebbles deposited throughout our campervan(cheers DS)?

The eurocamp-type companies send out assorted tat to ensure you and your children are walking advertisements, starting with the GB sticker and ending with t-shirts. As if sittting under a branded parasol wasn't enough . We're going to Brittany too - les mouettes, carantec.
