OK, we need to send out a couple of $50-$100 gifts to some of the sales reps from the internet startup companies we work with. I want to get them some kind of office toy thingy that they can display around the office, hopefully something unique so people will remember that they got it from us. We know very little about our reps, so it would have to be something with general appeal. (Oh, and it has to deliver in UK ). So far this is the best I've came up with.
This thing went over really well in my office a couple of years ago. Plus, thinkgeek is a cool source for cube toys. http://www.thinkgeek.com/geektoys/cubegoodies/5bb6/ It's a top that spins in the air. Pretty cool.
check out ThinkGeek.com for more ideas. EDIT: I cannot believe that bejezuz referred you to the same site I did, at the same instant I did.
We're not hiring at this time, but consider yourself an honorary member. Wow, that ThinkGeek is an awesome site. I think I might get this for myself: And these guys are f*ing hilarious:
I like these... LINK And you can get them at a good price, I'm always playing with them at my desk when I get stressed out, plus people think some of the stuff I make with it is cool and if you get bored the balls make good slingshot ammo for hitting annoying people with in the office..
What I like about the suggestions so far is that they all have a good chance of taking an eye out. Or two.
a funny thing: a friend of mine had one of these and busted it out at a small party a few years ago. he dropped a huge fart into that thing and shot it across the room. absolutely hilarious. (i know, childish and immature...but darn funny!) those air cannons work!
Now, see, vwiggin.... This is perfect for your sales reps. There isn't a sales rep in the world who isn't interested in shooting a fart across the room at people.
