I'm Turning Green With Envy Over All The Swag Athletes Get At The Winter Olympics This Year
It's no secret that athletes get A LOT of swag when they compete in the Olympics, especially if the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo were any indication:

Basically, clothes on clothes on clothes.
The 2022 Winter Olympics swag, on the other hand, is a little different! Olympian and member of the Czech women's hockey team, Sammy Kolowratová, showed off everything she's gotten in Beijing so far on TikTok, and it's A LOT:
@sammy_kolo so. much. stuff 🤩 #olympicspirit #winterolympics #icehockey #beijing2022 #czechhockey

First up, we have all the health and wellness stuff: foam roller, water bottle, and a yoga mat.
Next up, enough toiletries to last you through the Olympics and beyond. Lotion, mouthwash, deodorant, toothpaste, hand sanitizer, tampons, even laundry detergent!!! I also peeped some coveted First Aid Beauty skincare.
It's not over. There's also a backpack to carry around the village with some adorbs keychains.
Plus, cute panda stickers (à la this Olympic mascot) AND a panda pillow that turns into a blanket.
A full box of delicious Chinese snacks and treats:
One of the coolest souvenirs (IMO) is the Olympic pins. Sammy says that a big thing is to trade pins with athletes to create your own unique collection. She also shows off special pins she got for winning a game.
And, for the grand finale, the Samsung haul: a Galaxy phone case, Galaxy buds, a case for said buds...
And a whole brand-new Samsung Galaxy Z phone, complete with the Olympic rings emblem!!!
People in the comments asked Sammy the important questions, like is everything really free? (It is.)
And does she get to take the panda pillow home with her? (She does.)
So, there you have it. I WANT IT ALL. Please?
