Mr. Chips, Inc. supplies oversized promotional novelty items to retail businesses, event promoters, and organisations running in-store sweepstakes, seasonal foot-traffic promotions, and holiday marketing campaigns. The core product in this collection is the Giant Holiday Stocking, available in 6-foot and 8-foot formats. These are large-format display pieces built to attract customer attention, generate engagement at the point of sale, and anchor a seasonal promotion.

The primary buyer for this collection is a retail manager, event coordinator, or marketing director who needs a proven, ready-to-deploy promotional vehicle for a holiday season campaign. The Deluxe models include a complete sweepstakes kit with everything a retailer needs to run a contest from day one, with no external printing or creative costs.

Buy Giant Holiday Stockings - 6-Foot and 8-Foot Promotional Displays

The Giant Holiday Stocking is available in two sizes: 6 feet and 8 feet. Both are designed as point-of-sale display pieces for retail environments. The 8-foot option is the better choice for large-format retail spaces, shopping malls, and high-ceiling venues where maximum visual impact is required.

These stockings are B2B products first. They are sized and designed to function as promotional display assets, not consumer gifts. Retailers use them as the centrepiece of an in-store sweepstakes promotion, positioned in the front window or at the store entrance.

Deluxe vs. Standard Holiday Stockings - What Is the Difference?

Mr. Chips offers both Standard and Deluxe versions of the Giant Holiday Stocking:

• Standard Giant Holiday Stocking: the oversized display piece on its own. The right pick for retailers who already have sweepstakes materials in place or who want the stocking as a visual display prop only.

• Deluxe Giant Holiday Stocking: the stocking display plus a complete sweepstakes promotional kit. The right pick for retailers launching a new in-store promotion with no existing infrastructure.

For first-time holiday promotion buyers and organisations running a sweepstakes for the first time, the Deluxe model is the complete, no-additional-spend option.

What Is Included in the Sweepstakes Promotional Kit?

The Deluxe Giant Holiday Stocking sweepstakes kit includes four promotional components, each covering a different element of an in-store promotion:

• 1,000 Entry Blanks: customer sweepstakes entry forms for use at the point of sale. Enough to cover a full seasonal campaign at typical retail entry volumes.

• Raffle Box: a secure entry collection box for placement at the register or display area. Keeps entries organised.

• 2 Window Posters: in-store promotional signage for front window or display area placement. Drives awareness and walk-in traffic from outside the store.

• Promotional Idea Book with Press Release: ready-to-use marketing materials and a pre-written press release for local media outreach. Reduces promotional setup time to near zero.

Novelty Easter Baskets and Holiday Novelty Items for Promotional Events

In addition to the Giant Holiday Stockings, this collection includes themed novelty baskets:

• Bunny Novelty Basket: Easter-themed promotional basket for spring sweepstakes and Easter retail promotions

• Bear Novelty Basket: a year-round promotional item suited to children's events and general promotional giveaways

• Jack-O-Lantern Novelty Basket: Halloween-themed for October retail promotions and fall sweepstakes

• Santa Sack: a Christmas-format alternative to the Giant Stocking. Suited to charities, churches, and retailers running holiday gift promotions.

Each novelty basket is built as a display-and-giveaway tool. The size and visual character of each piece are designed to draw attention and hold promotional items, prizes, or customer gifts.

How to Use a Giant Holiday Stocking to Increase Retail Foot Traffic

The Giant Holiday Stocking drives retail foot traffic through visual scale, visible entry activity at the stocking location, and the incentive of a sweepstakes prize. Effective deployment:

• Position the stocking in the front window or at the entrance for maximum visibility from outside

• Place the raffle box and entry blanks directly next to the stocking to reduce entry friction

• Put up the window posters before the promotion goes live to prime foot traffic from the start

• Send the included press release to local media to get coverage at no additional cost

• Run the promotion for 2 to 4 weeks, long enough for word-of-mouth to build entry volume
