I've seen people buy really cute little things from their home state or country (candy, hot sauce) that were awesome.
I wouldn't mind an advertisement IF it accompanied something in the spirit of the FE.
Tacky YES... but I wouldn't stress it. Overall FEs are so much fun and totally worth doing! We've been cruising DCL since 2001... do you how many FEs we have not taken back home with us on the plane over the years? Quite a bit, but we also have had a lot FEs that we still use/ display that we just love so much! I wouldn't think too much about tacky behavior on vacation!
But if that's your creativity limit, why join the FE group? I'm not creative in any way that impresses other people, so I'm not going to join the groups.

Actually, nons of that stuff has bothered me in the past. Keep the gift and dispose of what you don't want.
