probably not what they were looking for

Last week I received two emails regarding the "Pint Pal",
from people who apparently thought they were contacting the maker of
the item:
I need some info. on the pint pal ice cream koozie: I have a client
that is a vendor to Wal-Mart and is interested in getting 250 to 2000
of these. I need them to be gold in color with a 3 color imprint on
the side. Could someone please contact me with info. about this. Feel
free to call me at [phone number] Thanks...
And the second one:
How can I get one? My local grocer does not have them
So I checked, and sure enough I'm the top result on Google for [pint pal]. That's
kind of wacky, as is the fact that these people decided to email me.
But what's really wacky is that I got these two emails the same day.
Was the Pint Pal perhaps featured on tv somewhere or something? Who
knows. I suppose I could email these people back and ask.
(And speaking of queries for which I am inappropriately the top
result, see this
entry -- note the second and third comments.)
