What is in each of the free diaper bags that you get at the hospital?

I have gotten information from Similac, Enfamil, and Good Start about free diaper bags. It appears that they all offer a free diaper bag at the hosptial when you deliver your baby. I am curious what is in each of them, and if you have to choose one of them, or if the hospital will give you all of them. I have no idea what formula to go with and am happy to receive any and all samples, coupons, etc. that I can get my hands on.

A bunch of crap, coupons, advertisements for picture studios and book clubs and mothers rings and all that jazz, sometimes samples of lotion, soap, diapers, formula, diaper rash ointment, lanolin, breast pads, rice cereal… etc. If you have to choose amongst the 3 brands, I highly recommend Good Start (the one in the light purple can is the most inexpensive), it does tend to be gentler on baby’s stomach and it doesn’t seem to foam up as much as the other kinds, which makes for less gas. However, if your baby is anything like my daughter was… she was allergic to all standard formula at first, so she had to be on a specialized formula Similac makes one called Allimentium and Enfamil makes one called Nutramigen, they’re crazy expensive. But as I said, I would recommend starting out with Good Start (besides, they give the best vender’s checks).
