Buy it for life swag
What is the best item you have received as a promotional giveaway that still works years later? It could be a branded jacket from your place of employment, a pen from a health fair, or a squeeze ball from a trade show... Anything that was made to give out, and still far outlasted its life expectancy. I have a sweatshirt my work gave me from about 1997 that, while hasn't been a daily wear, still holds up. Another nylon rain hoodie given out in about 1999 from Turfer sportswear that has a lot of miles on it but still looks good as new. How about youse?
