I got a rather strange request in my inbox the other day. I am having a hard time trying to figure out if it was a legitimate request or if it was just someone trying to drum up traffic to their business site.

So, someone sent me an email asking if I had actual cups for sale like the Piss & Moan logo.

Hmmm…I had never considered merchandising since I didn’t figure there was much of a market for it. Honestly, I am leaning towards this not really being a legit request but it made me pause for a moment and wonder.

I emailed back that there weren’t any for sale and that I designed the logo myself so I hadn’t ever considered that others might want to buy it.

Has anyone else ever considered marketing or merchandising their blog? Did you find it a hassle? Did you find that it paid off or was it more of just a money sucker? I am curious what others have experienced.

For now, just so you all know, there is no merchandise. The only thing around here worth any money is my opinion and I give that away for free, so you can see the value in that. LOL
