I need ideas for 30 incentive items for a 30th b-day

[Lanie]

Hi! In honor of my upcoming 30th birthday this month , I am wanting to offer incentives to my customers who purchase $30 or more worth of SU product. These are the ideas I've come up with so far:

30 eyelets
30�? of ribbon
30�? of cord
30�? of hemp twine
30 cardstock squares
30 vellum squares
30 pre-stamped seasonal images
30 pre-stamped greetings (word greetings--not cards)
30 envelopes

Please help me figure out other easy (and inexpensive) items to give as incentives. Obviously, it has to be in lots of 30. I am determined to make 30, fun!!!!

Can you think of any catchy titles for my offer?

I think you thought of neat ideas... would love the prestamped seasonal images or the greetings, since I don't have much of either of them!!

30 brads
30 tags (from the tag sheets)
30 glue dots
there are 7 colors of hemp twine--you could use 30 inches of each color
30 inches of the fancy fibers

30 envelopes are pretty expensive!

[Lanie]

Great ideas!!! Keep them coming!

I completely forgot about brads. I have a bunch of the tags I'm not using, too. Perfect!

I got a huge box of envelopes on ebay last year for less than $10. There were well over 1000. They are a little bit smaller than the regular SU size, but hey, they are free! I just cut my cards accordingly.

How about a grab bag of thirty items? Keep smaller items (brads, eyelets) in pairs or quads. It might look like the customer is getting more free items if there is a variety.

Your idea sounds so fun!

**You could use your punches and offer 30 of the punched images, ie: 30 folk hearts, 30 snowmen, etc.

**30" of ribbon (like the hemp suggested earlier)

**30 prefolded cards (small ones for gifts-- 1/4 sheet of cardstock each)

Good luck!

30 pre-stamped address labels

Would that be of interest to anyone? Just a thought.

30 M&M's in a cello bag with a Happy Birthday topper--when in doubt, default to chocolate :lol:

[Lanie]

Chocolate definitely says, "Happy birthday to me!!!" Great idea!

This is such a fun idea!! Unfortunately I have another 4 years til I turn 30....

I am sending a box to my dh (in Iraq) this month that has 30 of everything...he turns 30 on the 17th.

Thanks for all the fantastic ideas ladies! You are great!

Emily, where in MO do you live? I live in SW MO (about an hour northeast of Springfield).

I live in the Kansas City area. Grew up here, left when I got married and am living at home again while my husband is gone. He will be leaving the army when he returns and hopefully we'll be living in the area full time then.
