If anyone has any doubt about the simple pleasures of Twitter, let me share this short story. Last night I was working into the wee hours of the morning. I decided to get myself a glass of red wine and some cheese. Well, I searched high and low in the fridge and all I found was gross plastic wrapped cheese. Yuck! Not what I wanted!
After a little more searching I decided on Goldfish crackers out of desperation. Surprisingly, it wasn’t bad! So I decided to Tweet about it.
I sent out a tweet that said: The next best thing if you don’t have cheese to go with your red wine? Goldfish crackers! Don’t knock it until you tried it:)
I had one other mom agree with me (thanks @chicest !) and one of my guy friends laugh at me (boo @boothy443 !)
The funny thing is this morning I work up and checked out Twitter. And there is a RT (re-tweet) from @PeppridgeFarm! They must have a search set up for “goldfish crackers” saw my tweet and re-tweeted it! Ahhhh the simple satisfaction of Twitter! As a consumer, I liked to see my tweet being re-tweeted by a company; I like that someone is listening!
Have you had a similar experience on Twitter, good or bad? Please share it!
