Custom Seat Cushions are among the most popular school and team spirit items we offer.  If you have ever sat on a hard bench or bleacher at a game you know you need one!! LOTS of great options and we love that you can sell ad space on one side while featuring your school logo/mascot on the other.  Many seat cushions can also be done in two-tone so you can show off both your school colors.

Folding Chairs and Seats make great corporate gifts and they are almost an essential for Soccer Moms and Dads.  We love the accessory pockets and drink holders.  Mascots/logos can be printed on the chair and on the carrying bags carrying bags

Stadium Seats These are great when you need more than a cushion and don’t have a spot for a chair.  The folding style makes carrying them to the game easy and there are spots for your program, snack and cell phone!!

These do it all- Cushion/Blanket/Poncho/Bag in one

We all live stressful lives and having something to break the mood is something everyone welcomes during a hectic day.  This is one of the many reasons that Stress Toys are a favorite promotional idea!

Many Stress Relievers have a practical desktop use…pens, pencils, magnets, mousepads, note holders, paperclip containers…all will be used and seen everyday with a smile and your logo will stay out there for everyone to comment on!

Stress Toys are often Brain Teaser Puzzlers and fun objects that are designed to lighten the mood and refresh the brain cells -think about having these on hand during a boring conference call or tedious seminar…Your clients will reach for these and think of you everytime they need to “get away” for a moment during the day.  We love these puzzles and desktop toys -promotional ideas that everyone wants to get their hands on…

One of our favorite stress toys is the Classic Slinky–now available in great colors and with your logo!
