Yes the title is correct, fresh outta the hospital "damn swine flue" and the first thing i do is get myself a free mouse. Well this one isnt exactly free since i did at one point pay for it but here is a rather easy way to get one 100% free.
For legality reasons im going to say everything below is strictly theory, with that outta the way...
First you need to scrounge up $50-$100 bucks "ya mice are expensive" then drive to the local Best Buy, Walmart or wherever you like. Pick yourself out a fancy new mouse, in fact you can even get one with a keyboard. The only thing you really need to be mindful for is the fact that its microsoft. Now when you check out BE SURE TO KEEP THE RECEIPT!
Once you get home grab your phone, and give this number a call 1-(800)-360-7561 explain to them that you purchased the mouse about 3-4 months ago and its not working correctly. Just make sure you say its more than 30 days and less than the "made on date". Be nice and mention that you still have the reciept and package and youll be more than willing to mail it back if they need you to. Now you dont have to say that but its nice as it removes almost any doubt from there head that your legit. They will ask for a serial number so just act dumb and let them tell you where to find it. After you give it to them, aswell as your address your good to go. I managed to get mine within 2-3 days after the call.
After you hang up feel free to go ahead and take the one you purchased back for a refund. Just say it wasnt the one you thought it was, or that it makes your hand cramp when using it.
Last but not least, enjoy your free mouse.

Or just go to a store, snap a photo of an actual mouse box.... tell MS the serial number... just as a theory of course.
