Almost every trade show you go to there will be some type of swag given away, usually its t-shirts and pens, but some companies go out of their way to have some really cool swag to make you remember them. This year at CES I did end up getting a good amount of swag, although I really did not try to get a lot of it. It is a pain to try to fit it all into your suitcase and a lot of it is junk really, I think I still have half of the swag I got last year sitting in my closet.

So what good did I get this year? Well AOC and Lite-On had some really good swag, they gave us a rolling bag with a ton of stuff in it. This was given to us at the Phantom of the Opera night out, it was not regular swag that was given out on the show floor. At the Sony Online Entertainment party everyone was given a grab bag with the game Pirates of the Burning sea and DVD on how they made the game. Also they gave out a ton of t-shirts there. It seems the bigger items were given out at parties, but I did manage to get some cool things on the show floor. My friends at Lenovo were nice enough to give me a watch and a 2GB flash drive. Besides that everything was the typical things you usually get at CES. The other bag in the picture is the press bag that is given out to all press.

I guess I should do a contest, besides the bags (which I am keeping) what is something from the picture above that you would like to see be given away. Just leave a comment below and whichever items get the most votes I will give away in a week or so.

    Looks like a great collection of stuff, especially the bags. I’m hoping to go to CES and CAP next year (hopefully).

    Nice collection of stuff. I tried not to get too much this year also, as my bags were already tightly packed on the way to Vegas. I mostly got USB flash drives and t-shirts. Guess I need to start a contest for some of the stuff as well, as I won’t be using most of it.

    Although I got a healthy supply of t-shirts, I didn’t score as many flash drives as I would have liked.

    i say give it all away! i mean, are you actually going to use any of that stuff besides the bags?

    I’m in agreement with ms danielle. Like you said, you still have half the stuff from last year. If you aren’t going to use it, give it away and maybe get some good links. *shrug*

    I’d say the USB drives and the DVD.

    - Yeah, why not give it all away besides the bags eh?

    Yup I’d have to agree with ms danielle, you should give away most of the stuff – I’d be happy to receive anything :-)
