At A Loss

What to do, what to do?

You all know I'm helping plan our class reunion, and I've been pondering some kind of gift (or as I like to call them, "booby prizes") to give away at the reunion. I'd like to keep it simple and tasteful, especially after the debacle five years ago when, out of the blue, one couple brought in door prizes that were, um..*cough*...pretty adult.

Therein, sort of, lies my dilemma. I'm trying to figure out what people would like (personalized candy bars?) that would be in keeping with our alma mater...but trying to find anything related to our mascot, a bison, is kind of like finding a needle in a haystack.

More to the point, there ain't a lot of money to spend...because I'd be the one spending the dough and Husband, understandably so, isn't too crazy about me spending money (his money) on my high school class.

But...t-shirts? Would you now want a t-shirt that had your high school name on it and the year you graduated?

And, for the record, I tried to do those neat-o custom M&M's, but you can't print on a dark blue candy.

Adopt a bison?

Huh, maybe I should call the high school and get someone to come out in the mascot outfit. They'd probably be pummeled at the door.

UPDATE: I know you all have been sleepless with worry about this, but be assured that Ultimate Driving Machine and I talked about this and have come up with something.
