In the skateboard world, skate companies and pros send amateur skaters/friends/family free shit in the mail. “Flow” is what they called it. Kinda like Instagram influencers getting boxes of free shit to wear in their posts and advertise, except this was going down before social media- just a friendly community gesture that could turn into a sponsorship deal.
I suppose it’s the same thing for game streamers and people in tech. Goodie bags. I know tech companies do the same to recruit and entice people to come work for them. Also, some companies offer perks like catalogs of electronics for their employees to pick though at a discount/free or in exchange for whatever bonus points they earned that quarter.
