Hello Tom:
First off, I want to thank you and everybody on your team for making the fine products that my daughter has soiled every day of her life thus far.
Babs is fifteen months old, and still not potty trained. Get on it, girl. For that reason, she is still wearing your diapers, and it’s safe to say that she is “enjoying the ride!” That’s a quote that I have paraphrased directly from your website.
We have put Babs in almost every size of Huggies. When she was born she fit into size zero. After a month she was size one. Then she advanced to size two. Following that, she was size three. After that, she was size four. Soon she’ll be moving to size five. Her favorites are the “Little Snugglers” and the denim diapers.
Some of the highlights Babs has had while in your diapers were meeting Betty White, talking to Garth Brooks on the phone, and having that blowout at the Aroma Café in Studio City, CA. That one got messy.
Another monumental day of Babs’ life when she was wearing Huggies was when my wife and I realized that we were having another baby. That’s right, this December, we will welcome a new addition to our family.
Which brings me to why I’m writing. I would like to politely ask for a lifetime supply of Huggies diapers, for my children (current and future), as well as all of my nieces and nephews. I’m fully aware this is an aggressive asking price, but when negotiating, you have to aim high.
I would love to hear if you have accepted this offer by July 30th, 2011, or kindly respond with your best counter-offer.
I don’t want to have to go to other diaper companies, but I will enter negotiation with a competitor if need be.
Thank you so much for your time, and I look forward to your prompt response. Tell Kim Clark I said hello, as well.
Sincerely,
Tom Riles
