Favor Ideas for a Geeky Wedding?

Posted by Cliff on from the something-to-pass-out-to-the-guests dept.

Rachel Grey asks: "I'm getting married in September to a fellow geek (in the MIT chapel, no less), and we're trying to find geeky wedding favors to give at the reception. Ideally these would cost $4 or less and would provide some instant fun for the guests, so that it doesn't matter if they actually take them home. Some good ideas we've had so far are tangrams (available in bulk for a little under $1/set) and micro Hoberman spheres ($4 apiece). Any more ideas?"

    A good browse on American Science and Surplus should find you geeky and weird things for low-cost.

    How about the Kinder eggs. You know the chocolate egg with a small capsule inside with a toy you can build. http://www.kindersurprise.com/ Guaranteed to keep people entertained for moments.
