It is about the time of the year when marketing managers and human resources professionals start looking for the promotional gifts they will give away to their clients and employees.  A lot of people have been fired over the last two years and there's a good chance contacts you had a year ago are long gone today.  You probably haven't had much contact with the new responsible party so you will only have one chance to get it right.

You've got to know your market and their price point this year.  That price point is low!  If they can't hire back staff they can't afford a twenty dollar bag.  Take a close look at something like a cheap promotional drawstring bag like the one offered by Empire.  It's got all the colors you may be interested in can be used for about any purpose by kids or by adults.  Some students will use it as a mini laundry bag, others use them as book bags and still others use them to hold their dirty clothes are a game.  You can also take a look at things like hand blown glass ornaments that are offered by dozens of distributors.  Keep in mind not everyone has a tree and be sensitive to their needs so they are not potentially offended.
