The only thing I know for sure that is banned is food items and noise makers.
Only your team can decide how they want to give things out. Most of the time it depends on cost. We NEVER just give our stuff away. Our pins are hand made out of foam core and take a lot of time to make so in order to get one, you have to do something. Some people sing or dance, some tell jokes or recite poems. Its a fun way to get to know people.
Our squeezy pigs cost about 4.50 per pig so we only give out one per team, and one to each judge. Each of our students gets 3 to hand out at each regional. They get to decide who gets them. We encourage them to give at least one to a volunteer. (I think they may use them to start conversations with girls however.) Many of our pigs have ended up on other teams robots. I think a few of them may have even ended up on Einstein.
