i bought some superman sweets cigarettes and one kid was sitting in the corner pretending it was a cigarette.

Not good. I find 10p haribo sweets do the trick.

I normally get £2 worth or so.

girly ones for girls and boys ones for the boys.

What about teddy bears and small cuddly toys? Surely you can pick those up fairly cheaply and it is something that the child will keep forever, even if it ends up in the loft somewhere. Most are CE approved in any case, you no worry of it harming any children.

A bag of mixed nuts.

Yeh, that would really go down well (if they had false teeth!!)

Apart from asking the obvious question of "Why on earth have you resurrected this thread just to add that post?", my other question would be "Have you ever looked at the cost of soft toys?"

I don't visit the Children's Ent forum much, so hence seeing the thread late. You can pick up promo teddies for about £1 or so each, Yes that does soon add up, but they can just be used for certain prizes, not every prize.

I'm intrigued to know what 'promo teddies' are.

[DJMaxG]

Promo = Corporate Indentity

The teddies have the company's name on printed somewhere (varies)

[Corabar Entertainment]

Promo = Corporate Indentity

No, Promo = Promotional

ie: Advertising material that is usually given away for free!

Why on earth would you BUY someone else's promotional material?

[DJMaxG]

Who said you would

You would obviously use your own company name on the prizes, for example "Sid's Partys Limited"
