Trade wise it is worth nothing to us what so ever. Are we in a minority or is it a money spinner for some. We've tried bears and soft toys and mugs but never seem to have hit a trade vein.

Well for me tis the other way around as for the last 2 years I told my weekend man (who I have been with for 13 years) not to waste money, after all you can buy a little gift any day not just for the sake of it. Some hyped up whatever it is.

By the way not 1 order here either not even the new iphone cases:frown:

This is funny as me and the missis was only talking about this yesterday.

I have some great designs and have advertised them for a couple of weeks and yeah - only a couple of mugs sold!

Strange - very strange :-(

Same here. This year I put some of Paul's templates as pride of place on my website's front page, sent newsletter emails to everyone with a discount code, and I have lower cost postage options (also mentioned on the front page) - not a peep for anything Valentine related. Quite sad.

Glad I didn't buy loads of stock in, now...
