From margaritaville.com?

I did. $15 and suppose to be worth $50. Wondering if anyone has ever done it and what you got?

When I went to margaritaville.com and entered "mystery bag" into the search panel just now, it came up with nuthin'.
So I can't help you.  Whatever it is (or was), it ain't there no more.

And I'm a little reluctant to order stuff like that.  Sure they may send me a T-shirt or a pair of sunglasses that are well worth more than the $15 you have to pay for it; but I wear regular prescription eyeglasses so I can't use sunglasses and if the T-shirt isn't at least a 2XL it's equally useless to me.

. . kinda my take on it, too . .

. . I even hesitate to accept give-away T-Shirts . . in my case the opposite is true . . they hand me a 3XXL, that even as a night shirt is waaaay too big . .

. . keep us posted as to what goodies you got . . ! ! :D

. . good luck . . ! !

I saw the offer in my email, but it appears that there are no men's clothes size XL in the mystery bag so I passed on the offer.
I know I left that doggone dotsig around here somewhere ...

Nope. Nor do I want what Jay's got on his table.
Or the box Carol Merrill points to on the floor.

I did...ordered 2 men's xl and 2 women's med.

We got eight total shirts (4 men's and 4 women's - all different), 2 beer glasses, 2 hurricane glasses, 2 coffee mugs, a baseball hat, and 4 do-not-disturb type door hangers). A lot was stuff from different Margaritaville shops (Cincinnati, Glendale, Mohegan Sun, & Myrtle Beach). Overall a great value for $40 plus approx. $5 shipping.

They still had men's small and medium and women's small and medium available to order as of Friday night

Well I got it today and like I somewhat expected I'm highly disappointed.

It included a white landshark myrtle beach shirt. A black Mohegan sun shirt that I would bet was returned. Couldn't be more faded. And two glendale beer glasses.

The beer glasses are 9.95 in the stores. The t-shirts have tag that say 21$ but there's no way they were selling for that more like 5 dollar clearance. If you went by retail then I'm sure they could say this was a 50$ value they promised but no way real prices it comes even close to 35. Live and learn I guess. I thought it would be similar to woots bag of crap but not close.

Kind of makes me glad now that I got a rock.

You are lucky! I bought 6 of them as Christmas gifts on 12/12 and have received nothing and can't get any answer. I have called the number multiple times and only get voicemail. I even had Margaritaville Cargo try and they can't get an answer. I get no reply to my voicemails I leave or emails that I send.
