Giveaway Ideas for Under $5 Each
Companies use giveaway items as a promotional tool to spread the word about the company or its products. At trade shows, conferences and fairs or expos, companies often make items available for attendees to take home. Almost always these items include the company's logo, tagline and contact information, such as a website.

Gift Cards
-
If you want something cheap that most people will use, consider a gift card to a fast food place or for coffee. This works for giveaways that are a door prize or given only to some users. If you have a large budget, you could give a $5 gift card to every attendee. If your company sells products or services, a gift card to your company is a good idea. Even if nothing at your business is that low-priced, customers will still appreciate the chance to save.
Office Items
-
Some office items are good for giveaways because users tend to keep them a long time or to use them and pass them on to someone else. Pens and pencils with your company's logo and website are a cheap item that will help you spread the word about your business. Staplers are another good idea because users tend to hang on to staplers for a long time. Note pads and sticky notes increase your exposure when the customer writes something and gives it to someone else.

Clothing
-
Clothing items are something that many people use and even regift. Items with your company's logo or tag line will mean more exposure when the clothing is worn. T-shirts are a popular giveaway item. When ordered in bulk, it is possible to get them for under $5 each. Other clothing items that can be cheap even personalized include bandannas and flip-flop sandals. A colorful bandanna can stand out among other giveaway items.
Other Ideas
-
Several items are under $5 each even when customized. A thumb drive is something that customers normally can use and keep. You can order thumb drives with your company's logo and contact information. A Frisbee is a unique promotional item; potential customers might take it home and play with it. Another idea is to give food in a tin, or, depending on the venue of the promotional giveaway, water bottles and light snacks.
