I actually have an issue currently; I run a volunteer IRC network and people beg me for swag (minor gift for recurring donations and so on).

My issue is that I refuse to make shit.

I want to test products before I inflict them on the people using my services, not only that I want my brand of service associated with high quality.

As a low value item, maybe stickers? But let people request them, don't send them automatically if someone donates.

We already have stickers, but people love high quality swag. :)
