Why Should You Choose Promotional Novelty Items?

OK, so what does 'novelty' actually mean? As defined by the Cambridge Dictionary, novelty is "the quality of being new and unusual, something that has not been experienced before and so is interesting, a cheap unusual object such as a small toy, often given as a present". Whether you're looking for something new and unusual or something more toy-like for a throwback touch, Total Merchandise has got ideas that add a playful twist to your business' identity.
