I noticed that no one has ever posted anything on one of my favorite little packet tricks call Dream Queen. It is very simple for the spectator to understand, easy to perform, and I have gotten many great reactions with it, plus it is cheap (~$4). The trick is described as follows:
Performer shows an envelope containing four cards, the four Queens. The spectator names any one of the four Queens. When the four cards are removed from the envelope and fanned out, the selected Queen is found face up between the other three Queens, which are face down. Best of all, when the selected Queen is turned over, it is the only Queen with a different color back! Wow!
An easy to perform packet (small pack of cards) trick. Includes all cards needed plus color instructions.
I like to carry it with me everyday and for the people I see often I use it as a running test of my precognition abilities by telling them that I got an image of the queen that they were going to pick last night and put it in this envelope. They pick a queen and I am right once again. The first time or two they think I must have just been luckily since I have a 25% chance just by guessing. After a few days of getting their card correct they really start to wonder.
Anyway it is very easy to learn to do, no slights, and resets itself. Works great as a trick by itself or as a lead in to other tricks like the Brain Wave Deck or Invisible Deck. Over all, bang for your buck, you can not go wrong with this one.
