Hey guys, I'm doing a load of stuff on the car in the coming weeks so ordered one of these magnetic bowls to lob screws and stuff in so I don't lose them. Thought it'd be nice for a merchandising thing.

I've ordered one of these:

But I'm thinking I might get some custom club stickers made up to stick in the bottom. I reckon I can get the bowls, put the club logo on the bottom, sell them and post them out for around between £7-£9. Would this be something you guys would be interested in if I sorted it out? I need to do something, I'm getting bored in the evenings!

How big is the bowl?

4 inches. So it's not bloody massive, but a reasonable size. I could probably sort out bigger as well maybe for the same sort of price.

I seem to remember it was you that implanted this idea into my head at some point as well!

Yep, my magnetic bowl works a treat...it was only a couple of quid though - I'd resent paying nearly a tenner for one

I wouldn't pay a tenner for one either, £2 from the sunday market and £2 for a club sticker

As I say, it depends on how cheap I can get the graphics and the postage for. I think it costs around £2.50 per bowl and an additional £0.50p for postage to me, but I should be able to knock em' down a bit on that, and the graphics around £0.50p/£1.00 each so you're looking around £4 each to put each bowl together, then it'd be around £1.00/£2.00 postage for each one to go out to each person, so that's around £6, then maybe a little a little extra to go into the club. I suppose the best way of doing it would be to offer it at the lowest possible price to goldies, and chuck an extra £1 on for non-goldies. =]

Exactly what I'm planning to do, was just wondering if there was enough people who wanted them could get it all done in one go.

TBH, I could do with one, but I'm not in a rush

Well, I'll get mine all sorted then I'll see if anyone wants me to bother doing a load batch.

The sticker will get all scratched off in no time...

you want to get it engraved/etched on - subtle but longer lasting......

Probably pricey though

The edge might get a little flakey but I've been looking into thick fully laminated stickers so they'd be quite resilient.

Heheh, maybe I could carve it into the bottom with a penknife?
