Name of Product: Tin Cup Personal Imprinting System 
Price of Product: starting at $17.95
Where can the product be purchased: online from The Tin Cup and in golf pro shops and retail stores nationwide.
Description of Product: “Tin Cup Products, LLC was formed in the spring of 2009 by a couple of longtime Northern Virginia natives who enjoy the game of golf. Based on the USGA Rule that states all golfers must be able to “identify their ball” during tournament play, we felt that there was a need to create something unique to personalize the golf ball marking process. Made in the USA, the Tin Cup is made of 100% stainless steel and produced in Connecticut. The Tin Cup is guaranteed for life.”
Review of Product: My father is a big golfer and I thought this would be such an interesting and unique gift for him! Plus he enjoys wine so I selected the “vino” one (pictured above) with a chuckle. It arrived in a nice tan leather bag along with sharpie markers to use for the imprinting. This is such a creative gift for the golfer in your life – a way to add some personalization and pizazz to the boring golf ball!

I started Nicole's Nickels in February 2009 to bring all of the great deals I was finding to my friends and family and then it took off! Since then I've continued my full-time day job as an attorney while blogging in the evenings and on weekends. Nicole's Nickels has evolved into a site that lets you know about great new products and services! I help my clients during the days at the non-profit I work for and then my Nicole's Nickels readers learn about the best new products for their families! I live in south/central Florida and have 2 cute dogs (see their picture under "mascots") and an amazing husband who has a spunky 6 year old we get to spend a lot of time with. I hope you'll take the time to
