our girls always get bags, t-shirts, pens, a bumper sticker, pink gum (one of phi mu's colors) a disposable camera to capture bid day memories, a picture frame, and magnets. we also girl the girls an info pack with basic phi mu info specific to our chapter, including a list of members with phone number, phi (pledge) educators bios, exec council bios....we also have the bid day buddies give the new member a gift pack to be put together by the active with things specific to the theme of the bid day activity -- when i went through recruitment there was a wizard of oz theme (there's no place like home, with the 'o' and 'm' in 'home' represented with a phi and a mu) so i got a basket with a stuffed dog, red socks (for rollar skating that night), etc. last year our theme was barbie (every girl's dream house) and i got my bid day buddy a barbie (duh), a babie crown, etc...
