What people are asking for for conference gifts

In our recent survey of what people most want for Conference Gifts the results were:

Conference Gifts:
Top position: Conference bag: But one that is beaded or hand painted. = 19.44%
Position 2 & 3: USB and pen both got 8.33%
Other items mentioned: Beach bag; compact umbrella;, bath treats; clock; gadget; goody bag; IPOD; map book; GPS; shoe bag; music; toiletry bag with goodies inside


It seems that although the trusty conference bag is still the number 1 sort of use because of its practicality and the fact that people are assuming that they will be provided with one at a conference, the vast majority are asking with a different flair, whether it is beading or hand painting.
