Neil Symmonds asks.... "What's the funniest reason used on a t shirt return"
TruffleShuffle: Hmmmm around Christmas time we see a lot of âI got fat over Christmasâ scribbled on the returns slip. We have a LOT of lovely customers, so drawings are always a massive hit in the office. Pretty sure weâve naively helped stalkers going by the returns slips we get. Not that we find heartbreak funny, but we often receive returned items that have suffered the consequences of a nasty split up. âThe bi**h dumped me 2 days before Valentineâs Day, please exchange this âMiss Happyâ tee for a menâs âPlayer Snoopyâ tee. We find it amusing, and somewhat dedicated that people have their head screwed on in these circumstances. Cancel the joint account, change my status to âSingleâ on Facebook, tell my parentsâ¦.and most importantly exchange her t-shirt for something I can wear.
Check out our amazing 'washing line of thanks' and funny return slips from our amazing customers and fans. Makes us smile in the mornings!
We've Come Up Trumps With Our Cool New Card Games!
Ever stuck for retro gifts for that retro kid in your life? Well, these made me smile â memories of Top Trumps in the playground in the 1980s came flooding backâ¦
If you've never heard of Top Trumps, where have you been? It's a card game. Each card contains a list of numerical data, and the aim of the game is to compare these values in order to try to trump and win your opponents card. Back in the day it was all about pitting the latest sports cars, ships, lorries, or tanks against each other. But nowadays the range is MASSIVE, and not restricted to mini-petrolheads. You can play this classic game with everything from DC Superheroes and Transformers, Disney Princesses or Spongebob right the way through to Moshi Monsters!!
So, even in this digital age kids (big or small) can put down their PSP's and ditch their DS's in favour of a good old fashioned (sorry I mean retro) card game now in stock!!
