Promopeddler’s Great Promotional Schwag

Wednesday, August 19th, 2009

After receiving a great package from promotional product guys Promopeddler, they decided to send some more awesome stuff, especially for the tech geek and desk toys girl in me. That’s perfect — it’s what I look for in a match. 😉

First, here’s this magnetic window tin with paperclips, pushpins, thumb tacks, and binder clips (with a slight variation), which just so happens to be PERFECT since I have a steel computer case and have put it right on the side of it! Plus, the office supplies are awesome.

And here’s an awesome USB powered fish tank. The aquarium is so cool:

with video:

Here is a binoculars and compass combo:

And a cool desk game called Corporate Ladder:

Also, they sent a fun maze puzzle.

And a bungee flying rocket.

I also love the decision dice:

Also, a cool pen was mailed:

A personalized baseball cap:

And a set of pick-up sticks!

Thanks guys!

gdgt geek

Wednesday, August 12th, 2009

I’m a computer nerd, and I have about 5TB of storage across all computers I use (more than 3). I’m also a gadget geek. So I was very excited when gdgt, a site all about gadgets (you all should join!), was launched in July.

I also got some stickers that I was able to have posing with some of the hard drives. In case you’re wondering, there’s a USB hub there, a router, the Addonics IDE to USB hard drive enclosure (4 IDE hard drives are stored within), my cable modem, and two OneTouch USB hard drives by Maxtor.

Motivators USB Hub and Wifi Pen

Monday, August 10th, 2009

Okay, so Motivators, a promotional products company, sent me some of the coolest promotional products I’ve ever received. Seriously. These are usable and don’t just have that pen/t-shirt/cup appeal — sure, those were great and all (and I still have more to come), but these are just innovative and different, and you don’t see many people giving them away.

As a gadget geek (check the next post), having a USB hub is critical. And since you can daisy chain 127 USB items to each other, you can’t possibly run out of USB hubs. Here’s a fun Tangle USB hub:

Then we have a video of me and the wi-fi detecting ballpoint pen, now with more baby. My son is crying in the background. Yes, I took care of him after the video wrapped up. 😉

I also got a recycled cardboard journal and notepad— but I can’t for the life of me find it for a photo even though I’m pretty sure I photographed it awhile ago. I can’t find the photo either!

Thanks so much, Motivators!
