Who doesn't like at least some Schwag? Friday5

The Plan as proposed:
"Hello, and welcome to this week’s Friday 5! Please copy these questions to your webspace. Answer the questions there; then leave a comment below so we’ll all know where to check out your responses. Please don’t forget to link us from your website!"

Now from me:

The button in the side bar is linked back to Friday 5

And, by the way, Happy Fourth of July!  Hope it doesn't rain on your parade.  Julian Fourth of July parade was cancelled because of the Banner Fire.  Yes, it's out.

Banner Grade, where the fire originated is a place where Project Wildlife used to release re-habs back into the wild.  Two homes were lost, which is very sad, but I fear for the animals, too.

The Friday5 Questions:

What’s the most practically useful article of schwag* you’ve ever received?
Backpacks and small throws, from the obvious players.  Audubon, Green Peace and World Wildlife Fund.  Guys, if you are reading here, which I doubt, please send more!

What’s the most useless schwag you’ve ever received?
Tossers?  I can't remember.  The little things, like the strawberry huller which I got from tupperware parties, are always handy even now, years later.  

What schwag do you receive on a regular basis, and how do you feel about it?
I like my schwag.

What’s something that could reasonably be great schwag material but for some reason isn’t?
I honestly have no idea.  Toe lint brushes?  That sort of thing?

What the schwag that’s physically closest to you right now?
The Backpacks are in the sewing room so they are closest.  They all have their space on top of some Rubbermaids which are under a table with some other swag from a car company.  I like that everything is getting a "Place" there in that room.

Well, tata!  I have to go make potato salad, and get a shower.  It's getting hot here!

* From Wikipedia: Promotional merchandise, promotional items, promotional products, promotional gifts, or advertising gifts, sometimes nicknamed swag or schwag, are articles of merchandise (often branded with a logo) used in marketing and communication programs. They are given away to promote a company, corporate image, brand, or event. These items are usually imprinted with a company’s name, logo or slogan, and given away at trade shows, conferences, and as part of guerrilla marketing campaigns.

Thanks for participating, and have a lovely, wonderful, safe, July 4 weekend!
