How do we feel about the DJ Giveaways (NOT AT A WEDDING)???? (w/POLL)
Not for a wedding... but for a party...like a birthday, anniversary, etc....
The age group would probably be...20 y/o - 40 y/o, majority being 25-35 y/o
Personally, I'm not a fan for an event that I would have, but I'll never pass one up when given out....

Only for a Bar/Bat Mitzvah or Sweet Sixteen party.
Not a fan of give-aways for a grown up party.

Not a fan. It usually isn't anything worthwhile anyways. I'd rather have a favor.

Guys-read her post please. It's not for a wedding.
I vote no, because it is an adult party. If it were a party for kids or teenagers, I would say yes.

Must be-people feel so strongly about this that they automatically jump to respond w/o reading the actual post. With certain "strong opinion" topics that always happens

Re: How do we feel about Giveaways???? (w/POLL)
I think it depends on what you're giving out, what type of party it is, and how it's presented.

Re: How do we feel about Giveaways???? (w/POLL)
Doesn't matter to me!!
At my SIL's baby shower they played Baby Bingo and gave away stuff from Victoria's Secret since her mom worked there!
I wasn't complaining when I won!

I hate them, but that's just me. For a kid's party, sure, not for adults.

Re: How do we feel about Giveaways???? (w/POLL)
Im confused... are we talkign about games and prizes being given out or the stuff the DJ gives.
DJ: love for all parties, I am junkie when it comes to getting useless things for free. Hence why I love my LIW shirt, Love my free pen I got at Leonards.. the list goes on and on.
Games & Prizes: I think they are fun also for Baby Showers, Kids parties and Bridal showers.

Re: How do we feel about Giveaways???? (w/POLL)
I like the giveaways, it adds to the good time while dancing. They're fun, like wearing a hat, sunglassses, or leai, even on the ride home. It's something I would probably throw out afterwards tho.
