I recently purchased multiple items related to television shows from the NBC Universal store. The good thing is that when you sign up for an account, they give you 15% off your purchase. So I tried to find as many items as I could for Christmas gifts (okay and for myself).
One thing that I purchased was a sign that said "The Office" to put next to my desk. I spent about $10 on it with the discount. It was definitely not worth $10. The sign is pretty cool looking, like the logo for The Office, but it is not high quality. I don't know what it is made of, but it's definitely not as hard as plastic (which is what I was hoping it would be). I am afraid to bend it in any way. I still like it, but I definitely could've printed a picture of the logo and placed it on some cardboard it would've been similar to this sign.
Another purchase I made was a shot glass from The Office. It says Dunder Mifflin on the side. I spent $4.80 and it was definitely worth my money. I only buy nerdy shot glasses (like Domokun, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, etc) and this was definitely a must-have for me since I am a huge fan of The Office.
One other item that I bought from NBC Universal (when I was at Universal Studios in California, not online) was a stuffed animal from the movie "Despicable Me". I have a soft spot for animated films and cute stuffed animals. I don't have as many stuffed animals as I did when I was a child, but I have kept my favorite 10-20. When an animated film with a unique/cute character comes around, I sometimes cannot help myself. This was the case for Despicable Me's minions. I couldn't decide which one I wanted out of the three at the store. One had two eyes and a smile, another had two eyes and a half smile, and the third had one eye. I picked the one with one eye. It wasn't too expensive and was one of the few things I bought at Universal Studios. I brought it to work with me and it made the kids happy.
