I have used these for about 5 years now...order 3,000 per year to 'give away' at my events. I used to give them to ALL the guests but it got pretty expensive. Now I pretty much just give them to the host/hostess and a 'few' select guests.

@ $1.83 each I really didn't like to give to kids so I ordered a bunch of 'junk' from Orential Trading for the kids...cheap, cheap, cheap but the kids LOVE it...go figure.. Laughing

These are 'PIG' key chains, I get them in 17 different colors.


A little closer look...


Another angle show my name and ph #....


People LOVED getting these so much that if they had been to an event that we had catered and got one of these, they would ask for one again.

On the 2 seperate occasion where I catered to the GOV of WA. I wrapped the plastic ware in a napkin then sercured it with a pig key chain around it. Did that for each guest...

Because you posted your question here, I will respond here...I got mine from a local place but they do have a website... www.colorgraphicswa.com
Just tell them you want the ones that Marv's orderd (if that is what you want) as they have serveral different ones to choose from.
You can also get them at most places that do custom lettering on things like cups, jackets, shirts etc.

I guess we all know how well Marv is doing if he can afford over $4,000.00 in giveaways, Holy crap!!


You are rivaling the weiner-mobile!

Keep it up. I hope to be as successful as you within 5-6 years.
