Big Day
The Pitch: Whoa! My "baby" Andrew turned 18 yesterday. He was supposed to be born 9 weeks later and he hasn't stopped surprising us since. Surprise a loyal client who's celebrating a big day with a chocolate "Happy Birthday" card in a gift box from Provender Int'l. Corp. (asi/79975). Pricing starts at: 24; $7.25. See it here: http://79975.asisupplier.com/.
The Bottom Line: They will eat this up.
Super Fun
The Pitch: Those were two great playoff games yesterday! I sure am looking forward to the Giants beating the Patriots in the Super Bowl (sorry, Diane Plourde, my buddy at Geiger in Maine). Anyway, despite our miserable Eagles season, football is fun again. This ballpoint pen with a light-up football topper is also fun and it's from Fields Mfg. Inc. (asi/54100).Think of this for school teams and fundraisers, sales "kick-off" meetings and more. Pricing starts at: 100; $3.15. Click here: http://fieldsmfg.com/.
The Bottom Line: All lit up.
A Roll of the Dice
The Pitch: We went to Parx Casino outside of Philly on Saturday night and let me tell you, it was some stellar people-watching. What a potpourri of characters. Casino-loving characters of all types and anyone who wants to get lucky would love the Press Your Luck keychain from Ariel Premium Supply (asi/36730). Press the top for a random spin of the slots. It's fun! Pricing starts at: 100; $2.17. See it here: http://www4.arielpremium.com/.
The Bottom Line: You can bet on it.
Chill Pill
The Pitch: My sister Colleen's dog Brody (did you get all that?) is on Zoloft for anxiety. Yes, I imagine it must be stressful laying around all day waiting for your next meal. The point is plenty of puppies need meds and Bay State Specialties (asi/38980) has a bone-shaped pet pill box, which is perfect for vets, pet groomers and sitters, kennels and more. Pricing starts at: 250; $1.13. Check it out: http://www.baystate.com/.
The Bottom Line: Take your meds.
