I really like what DC Automotive sent with mine... a multi-tool screw driver with a ton of bits. Cheers to DC! ;D I use it regularly...

WOW - great response... I'm still listening.

I feel silly for not thinking of the beer top opener - dang low-carb diet has me all messed up

John, your free T-shirts are welcome anytime - you have our address, yes?

I detect a trend of things you might use but don't need more than one of, and things that might be commensurate with the order placed. I like that idea, though we were initially looking for some inexpensive swag to put a smile on your face when you open a package with all the wrong parts.

Stickers are the easiest and you rarely run out of places to stick them - not that I would ever ask you to stick them on a McDonald's drive-thru or the walls of the tube in London. I hate anything attached to my keys except the car itself, but I know most folks do actually have something. Candy and other consumables sounds neat, but I fear they'd never make it out of the building. With allergies being what they are, it scares me a little. I just ran across some smiley face lollipops that are wicked cool!

I'm actually surprised the mouse pad thing isn't a hit - must be too many optical users out there.

I've always liked pens - can never have too many.

Thanks for the input - keep them coming!

"to put a smile on your face when you open a package with all the wrong parts. "

Why is Vertex going to start doing this too?

I use a trackball, haven't used a mousepad in years.

Somehow I got a catalog from Vertex with my most recent order - I think they are trying to go "big time" - the ads in Excellene Magazine don't cut it anymore, I guess.

My favorite give-away was a Playboy Calendar from this place in the Bronx called "1-2-3 Auto Wreckers".

Their motto:

"See us for your next piece."

You had to be a reeeeeallly good customer to get one of these.

Practical stuff with your logo on it! Things, that would be handy for people who order parts, and when ever they use said handy/convenient gadget they will remember good ole Paragon-products. Key chain Plug gapper, air gauge, one of those flat/phil screwdrivers with the pocket clip, key chain light, bottle opener, Money clip, Magic Snap ring plier tips, that kind of stuff Also, you can send better stuff if more money is spent. "And if you order 10,000 dollars or more you will recieve this nifty Belt tensioner tool engraved with the Paragon logo absolutley FREE"
