Relieve Holiday Tension with Promotional Lotions

Christmas will be here before we know it and the pricing wars have already begun for the best deals on everything from electronics to toys. The holiday season is supposed to be a joyous time with friends and family, but for most, stress levels rise higher than any other time of year. Give your employees and customers a chance to relax with promotional lotions. The soothing Menthol fragrance in the promotional stress relief lotions will help calm even the most frazzled mind. Ingredients such as Eucalyptus and Spearmint are also available in stress relief lotions and would work well to promote health and wellness programs your company may be trying to initiate.  Season’s Greetings.

The Prince is Engaged – Promotion Gift for Kate?


The Prince of Wales is officially off the market!  Hopeful single ladies across the globe are now realizing their dreams of becoming the next Queen of England are over, including myself. Looks like I’ll have to set my sights on Harry now! Royal officials announced the much anticipated engagement of Prince William to his long time girlfriend Kate Middleton this morning. The pair met while attending the University of  St. Andrews in Scotland about ten years ago. I wonder if she knew then that she would be in the running for the unthinkable, Queen title?

He proposed to her on a vacation the pair took to Kenya last month. Now, with both love birds being 28 years old they’re ready to wed! The event of the century will most likely go down sometime next spring or summer. I think I’ll buy Kate a promotion gift instead of an engagement gift. Her becoming the next Queen should most certainly be considered a promotion from her everyday civilian status and therefore a promotion gift is in order! A promotion like no other, she is one lucky lady and I love that she’s doing it all with class.  Congrats Prince William and Kate Middleton on your engagement!

Spotlight on Reusable Grocery Bags: Demystifying the Latest Health Concerns

Reusable Grocery Bag for Promotional Use

Friend or Foe? Make sure to get all the facts before making a decision.

Recent allegations of unacceptable lead levels in some reusable grocery bags has led many retailers to pull their bags off the shelves as a precautionary measure. The Tampa Tribune discovered through a series of laboratory tests that some local reusable bags had lead levels greater than federal limits set for paint and in conflict with pending regulations about children’s toys.

While lead has been linked to learning disabilities in children and fertility problems in adults, it is important to consider the purpose of these reusable grocery bags and the quantity of lead which they actually contain. The substance in question is not in a form that could easily rub off on food or penetrate the skin, such as the lead found in some types of wet paint, so does not pose an immediate threat to consumers. However, over time, the bags can deteriorate and the paint used in their manufacturing processes can flake off and threads can fray, thus releasing the lead and becoming a health hazard.

Promotional Lanyards Care of the CMAs

Last night, my boyfriend was lucky enough to be able to attend the 44th Annual Country Music Awards in Nashville. As my coworkers (and anybody who spends in excess of 5 minutes with me!) know, I am a die-hard country fan, so I had to overcome my jealousy and live vicariously through his good fortune. Due to a long-time business relationship with the owner of a local car dealership, one of my boyfriend’s friends was able to obtain not only tickets to the awards show itself, but promotional lanyards and VIP passes to an exclusive after-party, which happened to be sponsored by the dealership.

Conan and Promotional Products

Welcome to this week’s edition of “Trending Topic Tuesday,” where we share our take on what’s going on in the world and what promotional products would appropriately (or inappropriately) market the subject matter.


Last night was the debut of Conan O’Brien’s much-anticipated new show Conan on TBS, after his very public departure from from the Tonight Show and NBC. If you caught the episode, you may have enjoyed Seth Rogan discussing his engagement to longtime girlfriend Lauren Miller, Lea Michele dishing about her scandalous GQ photo spread, Jack White playing Eddie Cochran’s “Twenty Flight Rock” alongside the host. But did you happen to notice the promotional product draped across Conan’s shoulder?
