I know someone here has some great ideas...I will be participating in a show next weekend (2000+ people expected) and I have to donate two gifts for their draw table. I'm just starting out so I have no accumulated any extra products that I can donate. They want the gift, a write up on the retail price of it and how it is used. I was planning to give a give a SB plus a mini spatula done up in cello with a twixit clip and some hershey kisses. That's all I really have to give. The value comes to approx $10. I don't want to appear cheap. Its to late to order anything. Does anyone have any ideas, thoughts? I was trying to think of something I could add that might make it look a bit more impressive, such as two wine glasses, and go with an appetizer theme...ie glasses to drink wine, recipe book to make appetizers, spatula to lift off the prepared appetizers. A little hokey but I am really reaching here! Any ideas are appreciated. thanks

Will they let you add a personnally made Gift Certificate for $25 or something with a write up that the winner gets the additional fun of choosing thier own prize????? THat's what I'm doing for a local thing next weekend. That way you will have personal contact wtih the winner, can offer them to use the gift cert. as additional funds to add on if they would like to host a show ... or, as someone suggested here before.. they may not redeem it at all... hopefully they will.. .but if they don't... you aren't out the funds right now while trying to get your feet under you. That's one of the best reasons I had for choosing this route and when I gave it to them they were thrilled! Give them a call and see what they think!
