An idea I had this week to cheaply publicize my blogs is to get some magnets to place on my car. I had thought about making some small ones to stick on there for people to grab one if they would like. I would also like a flagship magnet for the website I want to promote.

I’ve used Vista Print before for business cards and was very pleased with the results. I hadn’t realized the Vista Print also does car magnets. You can use one of their templates or upload your own. I found one that was perfect for my Geeky Housewife blog:

As my two-year-old would say, ‘I love it!.’ It is very fetching and would certainly get noticed. That is not my number but if I did order this, I would have to think of a short, witty saying to put there.

Not only does Vista Print has business cards and rubber stamps, but now they offer car magnets. They even come in two sizes, small(11.25″ x 8.5″) and large(17.3″ x 11.25″). I’m excited about my car magnet idea for promoting my blog. With more people being having access to WIFI and the Internet through their phones, this could be a wonderful way to increase traffic.

Vista Print also sells t-shirts and pens, which both would be great promotional tools. If the car magnet idea works well, then I might have to further my marketing efforts.

One of my favorite board games is coming to Xbox Live. Wits & Wagers is a party board game the is a combination of trivia and betting.

Each game is played in seven rounds with one question in each round. Each answer is a numerical one. Players write down their answer then answers are sorted onto what resembles a craps betting mat. Players then bet on which answer they believe to be the closest to the correct answer. Payout is made to the winner(s). The last round, players can bet all of their money. The person with the most money wins the game.

This should be a fun title for Xbox Live since it is a social game. The developers are also working on a Facebook and mobile version of Wits & Wagers.
