The new fully Insulated Grocery Bag is made to carry hot or cold/frozen foods. What I love about these bags is that they carry more than your average plastic shopping bag. To top it off, this one is insulated. So, I feel free to run my errands even if I have to leave my groceries in the car. I know that my ice cream won’t melt. It is great for when I pick-up take out after work too; my dinner will stay warm until I bring … Continue Reading

While entering the municipal parking lot a group of energetic young people approached my car. In hand they had a bunch of goody bags filled with free stuff for my friends and me. “Awesome!” I thought. We were on our way for some fun in the sun and an outdoor concert.

It was a plain white plastic bag with some free samples of candy and juice. That was cool, but the only thing it was lacking was something to remember. I drank the juice, ate the candy and tossed the bag. … Continue Reading

When we were little kids, my sister and I used to catch frogs and then dress them up in “clothes” we fashioned out of tissues. I know…it borders on animal cruelty, but we were only trying to make them fabulous. The Sweatshirt Water Bottle dresses things up in a non-traumatizing way; specifically, with a “hoodie” for your water bottle. It is a BPA-free, biodegradable water bottle covered with a hooded sweatshirt. Plus, there’s a front pocket on it to hold things, such as your tickets to the big college game. … Continue Reading

It was hard work at the Winter X Games 13 competing against the world’s best in snowboarding and other exhilarating (yet exhausting) activities. Recognizing this, Coca-Cola’s line of Fuze juices and teas created the “Fuze Haven” at Aspen, CO. During the competition, athletes and members of the press were invited to stop by for a relaxing escape. Hosted by female champion snowboarder Torah Bright, the haven offered rejuvenating activities like morning yoga, massages, manicures and other spa services.

Fuze vitamin- and mineral-enhanced products were handed out, as were Fuze-branded water bottles, blankets and … Continue Reading

Personally, I’ve never experienced this, but it must be an issue for some people. Has anyone ever taken your mug or cup right off your desk?

Urban Outfitters carries a “dirty mug”. This imprinted mug only appears to be soiled and lipstick stained. And that glass, it must be someone’s cup. No one will want to drink from your glass or mug again. Actually, you might not want to drink from it either. It could take some getting used to. At least you’ll always know which cup is yours.

Garrett Specialties has been in the promotional products business for years. We’ve seen a handful of unique products such as the Porta-Potty Stress Reliever stress ball; which offers relief in so many ways!

Crazy and unusual products easily gain a large amount of attention. So it must be why the makers of the Chia Pet have come up with the Chia Obama. Yes that’s President Barack Obama as a Chia Pet. Watch his hair grow! It’s real, seriously.

It’s already a top seller and “could be the biggest I have ever had,” Pedott said, … Continue Reading
