That is exactly what she said to us, Oh sorry, you don't get to keep the basket. (which was the best part!) I think she catches folks off guard, you are trying to move into your new home and the doorbell rings, you just answer it and she says in a perky voice - "Hi, I am the Welcome Wagon and I want to welcome you to your new home". We got lots of coupons and some little gifts such as a tape measure with advertisements, but I never received any calls from any of the businesses she was promoting. Then she did ask for our email address, but told us it was optional. We figured out pretty quick that she was not a real "Welcome Wagon" person, rather than a paid person to hand out business trinkets and coupons.
