Okay so I’m switching it up. Today the bonus comes FIRST!
You may have noticed there’s an election a brewin’. And as any good campaign would have it, (thanks to George Washington’s buttons) there are plenty of promo products to go around.
It’s hard to believe, but Spring will be here before we know it and as I daydream about the warmer days to come, I find myself thinking about one of my favorite warmer-weather activities: hiking with my dog.
Make sure your four-legged buddy gets the proper hydration that he needs with the Custom Collapsible Pet Water Bowl. Great for long hikes or trips to the dog park, the Collapsible Pet Water bowl collapses to flat and can be attached to a leash or backpack for easy storage when not in use.
A great way to display your brand, this dog bowl is something that dog owners will use over and over.
One of my absolute favorites for the New Year: retro style custom bags are here and in full swing in the promotional products industry.
With colorful styling reminiscent of classic airline bags, these custom bags are the perfect luggage choice for weekend travel or day to day use. Roomy enough to carry a laptop, documents or even an outfit or two (not to mention shoes), these custom bags would make a great addition to anyone’s luggage collection.
During my recent visit to the PPAI Expo in Las Vegas, I noticed a prominent trend in corporate apparel: STRIPES!
I discovered the pattern on t-shirts, tank tops, totes, and even pillows.
This stylish way to color block has seen resurgence in the consumer market, and, in its latest advancement, the movement has reached promotional apparel! With all of the innovative decorating techniques available, the popularity of stripes demonstrates how simple it is to promote your brand on an apparel medium other than a basic white t-shirt.
I am particularly in love with the Barbarian Rugby Hoodie. That’s right; a hoodie and rugby in one! This 100% cotton pullover can be embroidered with your logo and custom stripe preference, too! Made in Canada, from USA cotton, The Rugby Hoodie features all of the details of an original: the classic placket, rubber buttons and reinforced seams throughout. Think of the classic 1980’s shirt, but add a fresh, urban spin. Available in many color combinations, there is one to suit the needs of every brand!

It’s that time again… Time to wake up. The dreaded alarm goes off and the morning snooze button ritual begins.
Buzz. Reach. Snooze. Repeat.
Well at least that’s how my morning usually goes. And I must confess, it isn’t fun. The quality of sleep you get between every punch of the snooze button is not good. I’m no expert, but I suspect a sleep expert might recommend setting the alarm for the time you actually need to get up. (Again, just my gut assumption.)
Luckily there is a brand new promotional alarm clock on the market to put an end to this bad habit. And I must say, I can’t wait to get my hands on one of these little guys: the Tocky and the Clocky.

Well this is it readers. The last blog post of 2011. I have to admit, I’m ready for the New Year and one of the most exciting things that January brings in the promotional products world: a whole new fresh crop of products.

Well with that said, my first pick for 2012 (and last for 2011) is this super cute 2 Piece Kitchen Scale.
Colorful, practical and affordable; how could you go wrong with this bag?
