Post Photo Albums as Favors

Has anyone given or thought about giving photo albums as part of their OOT bags? My mom and I were trying to decide what to do and I don't want to waste money on items people will never use again like towels or bags.
If you have done albums where did you get them?

Thanks

Had though about putting in little albums but wondered like you if it would be a waste, would people really use small albums again? Still unsure?! Think I will see how many other items I come up with first!

My sister in law did a very funny thing - she included a "Useful Spanish Phrases" one sheet that was printed on funny fiesta paper.

Here was a sampling of phrases:

-My donkey is dead (this translation was quoted in our guestbook)

-I need to find a black mustache for my dog

-Where can I buy a potato masher?

-No, I do not want to sleep with you, but maybe you can ask that man over there.

-No, I'm not gay. But there's nothing wrong with being gay. Why do you ask? Oh my god - do people think I'm gay?

Anyway - you get the picture. It was very funny and was referred to often over the days we were there.

Tammy,

Thanks that is really cute. My fiance and mom both want to do this as the gift to our guests, but I think we should probably do more than just a photo album.

I think these are really nice - you could dress them up by using colored paper instead of white - great find!

Hi all!

I have purchased photo albums to go in my bags. Along with a few other items. I purchased them from Wedding Favours - Bridal Shower Favours and Party Favour Ideas and got them in 2 weeks. They were only $4 each and I love them!!

I also ordered from that website: Personalized Margarita Mix and some gel candles.

Crate and Barrel had some really cute patent leather photo albums and coordinating luggage tags. The last time I saw them was at the outlet. In addition I really like the idea of gifting guests with passport covers.
