Huh? Why in our good Lord's name would you want a Microsoft advertisement, to pay a premium price for it?
The clothing I own other than some pretty good outwear and Yeti coffee tumblers and one coffee cup from my last employer that's nice but odd, it was their proprietary design, that's the only current stuff with company's name on them. Of course I have a pant load of trinkets like pens, tumblers, travel power adaptors, etc.
What do all these things have in common? They cost me bupkis.

I do have a couple of items I did pay for. I have a t-shirt that is very old that has the original advert for the ARPANET, my former boss (RIP) was one of the engineers that designed the Internet. I guess you have him to blame for turning me into a geek and provided me with a virtual endless supply of technical hardware and opened the door to professional tech depts. of many of the hardware manufacturers.
I also have a few t-shirts that they give you when you pay your dues for yearly subscriptions to DOGnzb., a private Usenet indexer. It's kinda cool, it just sports their logo. I have yet to have anyone recognize the shirt, hopefully some day.

I still contend all this stuff, that jackets, the stocking hats and baseball style caps, the box cutters, mouse pads, key rings, flashlights, mini tool sets, you get the drift. All the were given to me

SO WHY DOES MICROSOFT THINK YOU WOULD SPEND 25 BUCKS ON A BEANIE HAT OR 10 BUCKS FOR A PAIR OF SHORTY SOCKS????? ARE THEY KIDDING??????
