First of all, I"m cheap. And second of all, I'm always worried I'll get something no one wants and then it'd be a waste of money. And I hate wasting money!!<br /><br />Sounds like tattoos and mini-buttons might be the way to go??Lisa Schroederhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10677227681455190084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3318840210070768346.post-8928523637671429712010-03-18T17:47:13.356-07:002010-03-18T17:47:13.356-07:00Thanks guys!

What about giving away shirt pins that say, "My fake boyfriend is better than your real one" (or something like that.) You can have mini pins made up on Cafe Press fairly inexpensively. Bumper stickers might be fun for this age, too. Even if kids don't drive, they like to stick them on dressers or on bulletin boards etc.Carmella Van Vleethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09986145304172231832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3318840210070768346.post-92189831817359158122010-03-18T10:54:43.433-07:002010-03-18T10:54:43.433-07:00I like the temp tattoo idea!

One of the members of my debut author group teamed up with bullying prevention (one aspect of her book) and got swag from them. <br />I'll be interested to see what experienced authors have to say on this. I'm currently debating purchasing a pile of stuffed sled dogs (My book, Dogsled Dreams)But I'm wondering how much an author normally pays for swag to give away? <br /><br />I like the signing up to win the giveaway idea!

You could also try doing a giveaway of some sort, this way you only have to buy one nice item to give away, but can get everyone stopping by your table to sign up to win.Alissa Grossohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16701189791875707920noreply@blogger.com
