those who would be willing to pay for wasteof merch as a method of monetizing the site:
what kind of merch would you like? shirts, hoodies, hats?
how much would you be willing to pay for it? $10? $20?
what country would we have to ship to?
wasteof plush (i know, it’s a white box with a w on it, but i want one) for maybe $20, and ship to ‘murica
wasteof mug for 11$/€ and free shipping to the countries that most use wasteof
Ship to wasteof.money’s top 20 countries (each account’s country is added to an array and count the countries with the most duplicates)
A couple of new ideas I came up with:
Stickers with the wasteof logo or the wombat
Shirt with chest pocket that has wasteof logo on it, could make to match user's pfp color
I would definitely buy a “that's a wasteof.money” shirt or sticker with the wasteof logo below it
With the “that’s a wasteof.money” sticker, I thought of something simple like this:
Make a Hawaiian shirt with little wombats all over it
Like this but for wasteof and with smaller logos:
i know collared t-shirts + shirts tend to be easier to style & fit in better with like any setting n same with hoodies! as long as its less, around, or just a little more than market price im good :3
also maybe little accessories might be good for like people who can only make little purchases, like lanyards or beanies or stickers!
Some thoughts:
Shipping should be US and UK for definite, including more countries in Europe too. Potentially other areas like Oceania and other parts of the Americas like Canada, depending on where most users reside.
Price is hard to gauge when we don’t know yet what would be the cost to produce the merch, nor do we know yet what merch would be sold. But as Oren said, I think finding a balance between quality and price is key.
Said already, but I’d be happy to help out with designing merch or other stuff if you need the help. I’d also suggest you could maybe use wuilly’s wombat drawings for merch, it could be quite cute perhaps!
Merch: Baseball caps or chest-pocketed shirts with the wasteof logo design on the pocket
Price: Anything under $30
Countries: USA for sure, maybe include UK, Germany, Switzerland, or wherever people on wasteof live
what would the merch be? A “what a waste of money” T-Shirt? i’d buy that
Generally, I would want a T shirt, which is well priced around $20 US. I think a wasteof indigo hoodie would be amazing. I think that a good design would be a little right breast pocket-located W
I'd drop in my own two cents but for now I'll just say that I'd buy just about any wasteof merch under $50 and I love all the ideas in this comment sections so far.
Won’t wear it but would be nice to give a bit of money back so just something really cheap
