Unusual small business marketing...

What's the most unusual piece of marketing that your business has done - or if you haven't done it, have you had or seen examples of really unusual marketing elsewhere that has worked well?

Just interested to see what you creative geniuses out there have come up with

Nor done but received....

An envelope that looked hand written with what appeared to be a "normal" stamp.

Inside was a card and a magnifying glass. On the card was a large arrow pointing to some tiny text (which you needed the magnifying glass to read).

The text was a URL which was a personalised flash presentation which ended with a comment that they had just proven that they had the ability to break common thinking that physical mailshots cannot effectively drive people onto a website.

A bit of a cop out, but what was your most unusual piece of marketing?

I think Damion on here offers the ability to advertise your business on beer mats - a novel touch!
