     An idea for book signings

With the holidays coming up I'm constantly looking for attention getters at my book signings.  Last week I went to the Dollar Store and found Halloween, pocket type, potholders.  My book fits perfectly inside the pocket so when someone bought a copy of my book I "gift bagged it" by putting it using the potholders.   They loved this little extra.  I know potholders won't fit all types of books but I've also found book size Christmas bags that will work just as well.  This is an inexpensive idea.  The potholders are $1.00 each but the Christmas bags were 10 for $1.00 and the customers really seem to enjoy the little added touch.
