Hi all. I have been approached by a IT company to come up with some ideas for tradeshow giveaways for an local I.T. convention. I am looking for a trinket that has that cool factor in the $5, $10, and $20 range. It must have the ability to either engrave or screen a company logo on it. What have you seen that had that "wow" factor?

Thanks

Well I like the charger idea best so far. Thumb drives are always useful but I think their "Wow" factor is non-existent. Maybe use those for the people just there for the free stuff and the chargers for potential new clients.

Depends on the thumb drive. There are some pretty awesome ones out there. Linky

Plus I would use the thumb drive if it was really cool and would see the company's logo on it all the time. Good advertising technique.

I agree thumb drives are where it's at. I've attended CES a few times and you wouldn't belive the lines at the booths giving away thumb drives. The other thing very popular were the micro sd cards.
