So here's the story, I managed to recommend a mac through my friend to her friend's grandmother, and it seems like when her friend's granny got the Mac Mini, there were also 2 Apple stickers enclosed!

I don't recall seeing any Apple stickers with my mini, so am I missing out on something?

My friend got the mac for the granny in france, while I got my mini in australia. Would that make a difference in terms of what's in the package?

Well yes, the Mac packages do vary for each region. Keyboards, power adapter plugs etc so I guess it’s feasible that this could occur in one country, but not another.
 
I've found them with all of my Apple hardware short or input devices. My Airport Express had them.
 
My partner's iPod nano had two enclosed. The last time I got one was in 2003 with my PowerBook. There weren't any with my iMac.

I got two with my MBP last month! Havn't used them yet though.
 
Looks like it depends on the mood of the packers... I had some with my G4 Mini, none with my eMac, but my colleague did get some with his eMac. Luck of the draw... 🙄
 
2 with Shuffle and 2 with MacBook. I find them useless, but I din't mind them. They were also in my user manual.
 
I found stickers in both the Macs I've bought, but I've never received any in any other kit, like my keyboard for example. I did get a sheet in my .mac box though, which surprised me a little. Neither mine or Miss Jaffa Cake's iPods came with any, however.

As others have said, I think it depends a bit on the mood of the packers.
 
I think I got 4 stickers with my PB and 2 with an iMac. Other people I know have also got stickers when purchasing Mac products. I still don't know where to stick them though.
 
I got a bunch of stickers too. So, let me ask you this: where exactly have you stuck these stickers? Or, what have you done with them otherwise? I don't really know what to do with mine.

Stick them on your forehead when you go to WWDC or MacWorld.

Saves having to have an Apple shaved into your head, really.

Seems odd that the shuffle was the only thing that came with stickers? 😕

If I was gonna get an Apple shaved into my head, I'd make sure that it was shaped right... 😛
 
i got 'em with both my PB last August, as well as my new MB... none with either of the iPods.

and re: where do you stick 'em. well, there's one on my fiance's car and... that's about it. lol
