| business calender is a good idea, or fruit baskets are nice and you can make those yourself. maybe a company logo inner-tube for their pool! maybe a company logo mug or glass with candy. A $5 gift card to the grocery store would be nice around the holiday season. or maybe see if you can get some kind of coupon deal from a grocery store to send to customers for a turkey? |

| The ideas you have a great. I'd stick with that, unless something comes up that just makes you say "YES! That's it!!"These are gifts I've gotten in baskets that I really enjoyed:http://classicgoldenpecans.com/Product/Default.asp?gclid=CMmbyKyJvI8CFQI1gQodoxgFswThis site has discounts for larger orders. These are gifts that contain nuts. Very few people would hate this one. I've gotten double-dipped chocolate pecans before, and loved them. I'll be linking you to the place they came from below:http://www.harrellfarms.com/product/87/12 Of course, they have other ideas as well. They seem more expensive, though, than the other site above.This is a local farm, and I'm acquaintances with the owners through my aunt who went to the same college the owners did. I've only met them once, so I can't offer you a "friend" discount. But their gift baskets are very popular here in SC. You can shop online for the items they have.They have ready-made baskets and custom-made baskets.http://www.macsprideonline.com/catalog.aspx?category_ID=5This site is for a company in Tampa Bay that makes custom mugs with your company's name or logo. It's currently on the page from which you can choose to view "Specials" and "Close outs". Just click on those words to see the lower-cost items.http://www.glassamerica.com/index.cfm?gui=default&disref=170540This is a well-known company that sells gift mugs and baskets. One of the unique gifts they have is chocolate-covered cranberries! They have wonderul ideas and I've gotten gifts from businesses that ordered from this company.http://www.massbaytrading.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Category_Code=CG The current page is one that offers corporate gifts, but be sure to check out the tool bar at the top of the page for other ideas. I'm not sure how many customers you have, but these sites offer a variety of options ranging from very low cost to very expensive. (I know you're trying to save money on the gifts. So, if there are any "clearance" items you can find, you'll save even more.)Finally, this site is incredibly popular for gifts, and chances are you've even gotten a gift or two over the years from them. Mom sent me care packages from this company while I was in college, and I was thrilled every time. http://www.nationwidecandy.com/CANDY/index.asp?FSCat=5&url=IND&iFromFeatured=1This is the first page of their gift ideas. It has teas for baskets you can make yourself, but the bottom of this page and next pages have candies and nuts in custom-made arrangements. |

| I think offering an incentive or coupon or something would be good. Like a percentage off a service you offer or if you have a pool store, too, a coupon which will give them a deal but still entice them to buy something. |
