Gotta Tissue Handy? Gimmees Does!

Ah, what would winter be without cold and flu season? These two lovely illnesses just lie in wait for us, until they know when our immune systems have weakened, and then they dig their hideous claws into our bodies, making us miserable and cranky. Feverish and achy, we crawl into bed for comfort, only to feel more icky, clammy, and hideous than a swamp creature. During this wintry mix of various cold viruses and influenza making their rounds, give the one promotional item that every person you know will need – a tissue dispenser with super soft tissues. This little product is perfect to stick in a desk at the office and to toss into a purse or glove compartment. And while no one wants to ever fathom coming down with a bug, we’ve all had the pleasure of being sick with a sniffle or two, so it’s truly the promotional item that will get used by everyone you hand it to. While you are doling out goodies for the sick and feverish, why not pair the tissue dispenser with the Illusion Series Pill Box and direct your customers to keep some vitamin C handy?

Picture Yourself in a Digital Frame

People have collected framed pictures of their kids since the beginning of time. Well, maybe not since the actual beginning of time, but at least since modern photography was invented and became reasonably priced. There’s no doubt you have visited an office or home and seen multiple framed photos of kids, the family pet, vacations in the tropics, the family boat, etc. But sometimes it gets a bit out of hand when everywhere you look, your eye is drawn to yet another scene of little Alexander in every photogenic moment of his young life. Instead of cluttering up the home or office with dozens of framed pictures, choose from Gimmees’ selection of digital photo frames as a giveaway or promotional item. There are a number of offerings here from the Photo Gallery Digital Photo Frame to the Pocket Digital Photo Frame to the 1.5” Digital Photo Frame Ornament. Each of these dynamos holds a large number of digital pictures so that no one ever gets bored looking at the same scene. And with your logo or company name on the item, you know you’ll be long remembered for this wonderful gift.

Gearing Up Your Computer with Lots of Goodies

I never imagined that I’d ever spend so many hours per day on a computer, let alone even own one. During my college years, only the rich kids had their own computers – and my father, but he was a corporate executive. Most of my term papers were typed on a friend’s word processor or at the university computer lab, after I waited in line to get an available terminal. Now, my life is more technical and four laptops are part of our home life. And it’s not just the computers themselves. There are all sorts of devices that go with them: a Blu-Screen Clean computer brush, USB 2.0 flash drives, wireless mice, a wireless Internet detector, and rubber backed mouse pads. I never thought that I’d have so many uses for a computer nor did I think that my desk would be cluttered with all of the things that I need to be technologically advanced. Fortunately, I can shop without ever leaving my house and find information without ever stepping foot into a library. And I can work while I’m in my pajamas parked on my couch. Ah, computers. What would I do without my trusty laptop?

I Resolve... to Stick to My 2011 Resolutions with Gimmees

The books have closed on another year and it’s time to start off 2011 with a fresh slate. What will your resolution be? Will you organize your kitchen cabinet? Drink more water? Lose 10 pounds? Spend more time with family and loved ones? Resolutions are wonderful, but it’s easy to see why after a week or two most get abandoned. People make resolutions with the best of intentions but setting your goals too high can set you up for failure. Start with a tiny hill to get over before you put on your hiking boots to get over the mountain. Instead of heading out the door to run a marathon, start small. Get a jump rope and a yoga mat to start your resolution off right. Try a pilates class. Go for a swim at an indoor pool with a new pair of porpoise swim goggles. Take your pooch for a few laps around the block. Take baby steps to get yourself going and within a few weeks, you may find that you have stuck to that New Year’s resolution – long after most people have bailed.
