Haven't some companies have tried giving away merch to people who send in pull requests? I can't remember who the last one was, but I looked at the repo and it was mostly nonsense changes to docs or comments like adding unnecessary punctuation. And that was just for t-shirts.
People even posted YouTube tutorial videos on how to submit a pull requests using github just to get a t-shirt.
