Guest Insider nicer lip balms. I’m not a fan of the pens as they are generally ballpoint.

Jennifer Coco When you order pens, on the Compliance Side, can we make them BLUE?? None of the nicer pens are ever blue- maybe only Affordable cares. I love getting the nail files too. I honestly appreciate any vendor love. ❤ We dont have the same budgets as conventional, but we love our vendors too.

Brooke Nuber-Soldate I like quirky things - I have a little rubberband catapult that was built from their business card that I still love. I got a little squishy stress ball shaped like a toilet that I thought was funny. Or something helpful - i have a magnet/leveler I use a lot. I also got a nice mini ring light that I can clip to my screen or phone for better video lighting. I also like a nice lanyard when I'm at a conference.
Things I do not like - Keychains that don't do anything and are just a boring logo. Chocolate covered fruit or any weird sweet treat that isn't just a regular branded candy like Reeses. They always taste weird or stale.
The worst ever was the year Gwyneth Paltrow came to Zillow and passed out those charcoal bath bombs that stained EVERYTHING. That whole hotel had to be ruined by these things. The hotel tub, the shower, the walls, the towels and the sheets all got stained with black from these damn bath bombs. Anything you touched after put black smears. I cannot imagine the...

Allie Gartside I had vendors in CA and they gave us a stainless steel reusable straw - that was like 4yrs ago and I still use that thing ???? I like the reusable canvas bags. Still use those especially in CA & CO.
I also don’t mind pens but like a quality pen. Residents and prospects are always taking the pens we buy for the office.
I’ve also gotten bottle openers and drink cozy. I don’t really like getting water bottles, I’m just gonna default to my cute Stanley or Starbucks tumbler.
I don’t like notepads or post its. I throw those out the most often. Chapsticks are questionable if you get one at it tastes like wax, it’s going in the bin. But a nice one I’ll keep.
I also like a mug. Because I don’t wanna bring my good mugs to the office and don’t wanna waste our paper cups for the residents. So I always love a vendor mug that’s stuffed with little items like pens, lip balms, fidget spinner and a candy. But yeah also any sort of fidget item for us Adhders.
Also I’ve gotten a spray hand sanitizer which...

Amanda Guyer Please no more koozies unless the cold drink is included! Good pens are always a plus. Don’t go cheap on the pens or reusable bags. Better to have something small with good quality than something that is poorly made.

Guest Insider I love small tiny fans that plug into your computer modem. I’m always hot and I like to turn it on right after I get back from a tour. Last one I got was from AT&T.

Guest Insider I like coffee mugs, lip balms, wine.
I don't love when they bring in sweets/snacks because they're always just a generic box of donuts or cookies which work for 90% of properties im sure, but they don't take any dietary needs/restrictions into consideration. My team loves it but I can never partake in the crumbl cookies or dunkin donuts because I'm vegan.

Guest Insider I guess it depends on where the stuff is given at. The ones I remember most is when a vendor brought us each a single rose on Valentine’s Day. When a vendor stopped by and our AC was out and they went and got us ice cream/smoothies.
Trade show stuff I like things you can’t get from everyone. Flower seeds and pot, nice sunglasses, water bowl for the dog, pizza cutter. I also like notebooks.
I don’t love chapstick, pens (although I found a few nice pens and I like those), water bottles.

Erik McKinster ePremium gave us the most awesome cups.... filled it with whiskey and ice, drank it down, put cup of ice in my truck, came back the next day, and the ice was still there. Whiskey didn't come back, so there's that, but danged if it didn't stay cold! LOL
