    Help - novelty promo swag ideas wanted.

    Hey Hexites

    I wonder if you guys could help me out here. I'm an IT project manager and I've just closed out an infrastructure project and one of the sponsors wants me to get some novelty gifts for the project team members. I came up with a few suggestions but he shunned them - seems Ipod shuffles are not good enough.

    Anyone got any ideas as to what I can give the team members - can't be much as I've closed the budget so will be around the £15 max. Any novel ideas?

    Ahh - Should add, the project team is global; UK, US, and Italy. I'd love to be able to fly us all out to Verona for a few drinks.

    USB rocket launchers sound like a laugh - I'll look into that dave87.

    Have you tried ThinkGeek :: Stuff for Smart Masses ? It depends how many you want though as to the cost as it will be shipped from the states, but there's some great stuff on there

    Probably not, but seemed cool when I stumbled across it. The next step required a white cat...
