Is it time to start planning for 2011? We know many people already have. Well, FlagAndMap has you covered with gift ideas for the upcoming year. Last year our 2010 calendar mousepads proved to be very popular, so we’ve updated the designs to create an international range of 2011 calendar mousepads. Each design features the national flag plus a map of the country and, most importantly, the 2011 calendar. These mousepads make ideal gifts for the new year – what could be more useful than having the 2011 dates right there on your desktop? They are dust and stain resistant, have a non-slip backing and are priced at $11.95.

This year we are also offering 2011 calendar postcards. Designs are similar, with national motifs accompanying a handy 2011 calendar. Now you can send your friends a quick message on a card that not only promotes your home nation or favorite destination but also serves as a handy reference throughout the year. Prices are as low as $0.70 in bulk but there are no minimum orders.

Just to whet your appetite here are a few examples but we invite you to visit our online store to browse the entire collection.
