 I had been wondering if Ezinearticles forgot to send my my mug but I got it yesterday and am sipping the delicious coffee that came with it - right this moment.
  
 It WAS worth it to hang in there amidts all the patty slapping I got for wrong articles, and bending the rules, because I am in too much of a hurry to read directions like I should....which is why it took me longer than some.....
  
 Mmmm - coffee is great and the mug is a beauty.
 
 Just had to share that with you all and encourage you writers to hang in there and keep writing those articles...

 Congrats!  I got mine a few years ago, and it was a total shock when it arrived - I guess people EXPECT it now.  LOL

 Oh yeah, I forgot about that mug.  I think mine is in the cupboard somewhere.  When I got mine several years ago I didn't know anything about it.  I thought it was pretty cool of the company to do that.

 Congratulations on your mug! And you got coffee with it too.  Good for you.
 
 When I got mine a couple years ago it was a complete surprise, and it arrived WITHOUT a beverage package.
  
 I use it everyday to sip tea.

 I have to ditto everything ZiggyZoo said. Mug? They give out mugs? That's fantastic - something tangible from all of this e stuff.
 
 And of course congrats M5 - I'm sure the coffee tastes a bit better being consumed from a mug awarded due to your hard work.

 Thanks all you wonderful people!
  
 
 ZiggyZoo:  what do you do to get this mug mmmm???Once you hiut Patinum status at Ezinearticles you get to place unlimited articles and they get reviewed much quicker, plus you get a MUG!
 
 Some people like Robin in Carolina, for instance, get them much quicker than I did...I guess I have too much grey matter between the ears and I got slapped a bit, but I finally DID make it....let me give you a secret... if you do mess up on an article and it gets rejected, it works to send them a nice, honest note, apologizing and thanking them for giving you another chance...
