I'm Proudly Wearing My Tie Pants and You Should, Too

Did you know that pajamas were invented in India? Guess what? I didn’t know this fun fact either. In fact, it was British men who adopted this clothing and brought it home with them to Europe, wearing PJs for comfort and when they felt the need for relaxing. Today, it’s not just British men who are reaping the benefits of pajamas and comfy flannel pajama-like pants. The rest of us are keeping ourselves cozy and warm with them, too. In fact, go anywhere these days and young people are sporting their pajamas in public. Whether you agree with that is another story entirely, but Gimmees has flannel options for you and one of my personal favorites is the navy gold cord tie pant. Why these colors, you might ask? Navy and gold are my college’s colors, but aside from that, I think they are a good combo and complementary to each other. Plus, navy and gold will work well with a soft fleece sweatshirt or tee. These promotional items will look even more amazing when you are wearing them! It’s January, which means that wearing trousers is totally overrated! Put on your tie pants and be proud. Oh, and be comfy, too.

Priceless Information to Keep Your Kids Well

If you are a parent, you know what it’s like to be up at three o’clock in the morning with a feverish child, who is whimpering and shivering. It’s downright awful for a mother or father to watch his or her child suffer with an illness, and parents are always working hard to ensure that their kids stay well and healthy. But sometimes even our best efforts aren’t enough. And sometimes we even need more help than just a pediatrician. Do you know what symptoms are so serious that you should bypass your doctor and immediately call 911? The Key Point: Children’s Medical Emergencies is an 8-panel card (promotional product) that contains critical and valuable information for every parent. The card can be folded up to fit inside your wallet or purse or it can be taped in a central spot in your home – think the fridge or a medicine cabinet. Hopefully, you never have to use this card. But wouldn’t you rather be prepared for the worst and know exactly what to do in the event of an emergency revolving around your child? Preparation and education are invaluable.

Now You Can Actually Read the Fine Print

Is it really necessary that fine print has to be so fine? I have often wondered if the reason why such type is so small is so that none of us actually read it. Whatever the case, as I’m getting a little bit older (note: I said a little bit, not a lot), I’m beginning to notice that fine print is even smaller than it was before. Not sure if this is some international conspiracy of sorts on the part of the credit card companies or if it’s time I started having annual eye exams instead of visiting the ophthalmologist every other year. In the meantime, while I’m waiting for my next appointment with the eye doctor, I’m perfectly content with my pro-reader bookmark/ruler/magnifier. I can easily read any type that looks too small, which means I’m on to those credit card companies! Plus, my page is nicely marked in the latest bestseller that I’m reading. Finally, the red, white, and blue tassel shows my American spirit every day of the year and is just so darn cute. Oh, I almost forgot to mention that if I need to measure anything or draw a straight edge, the product is a ruler as well. It’s a promotion that offers a lot of features at a sweet and sassy price.

Sass Up that Suitcase

Right about now, as the final Christmas decorations are packed away and the last bit of tinsel is swept up off the floor, the houses are looking bare and the weather outside is cold, bleak, and gray. If you’re anything like me, your mind is daydreaming to a land where the sun is sparkling, the winds are mild, and the daytime temperature rarely falls below 83 degrees. And for the lucky few who have credit cards that aren’t maxed out from the holiday shopping, a trip to sunnier places is a very real possibility. Call the travel agent, book the vacation, pack your suitcase. That’s all there is to it, right? Here’s a tip: don’t forget to have your name and address on your suitcase a la the sandal luggage tag. It’s bright and colorful and so darn cute and it will make even the blackest of suitcases stand out. That way, once you are in paradise, you aren’t standing at the carousel too long looking for your luggage. It will be easy to spot so that you can get on your way to putting your toes in the sand. The sun’s rays are calling to you after all.
