In the 'Hood.

I was quite surprised last night, whilst playing, to see the level of enthusiasm for Sky Poker Hoodies, which were part of the Winter Giveaway jobbie.

Lots of players were saying they were really trying very hard to win a Sky Poker Hoody, whilst mention of I-Pads often got the retort "I'd sell it, I already have one".
 
For reasons I have often explained, I don't see a Sky Poker Merchandise Shop appearing any time soon - if ever - but if players think Sky Poker Hoodies are something they'd really like (bear in  mind nobody can buy them in Shops), I'm sure Sky Poker may consider offering them as Prizes more widely. 

Just looking for feedback really.

    I've often wondered why Sky doesn't have a store to sell stuff like this.
    It's all advertising innit.
    Also, as well as making normal cash purchases available, have the option of opting out of the current rewards scheme and opt in to a points building scheme, to then 'spend' points in said store.
    Of course, even if neither option was 'financially' better than the other, people would still whinge all day so that's off putting. And a faff to set up.
    And Sky would have already thought of store idea and discounted it for whatever reason.
    I wish I'd never typed the idea now.
    All in all, I recommend taking a marker pen to a hoodie and writing 'Sky Poker Guru' on it.

    I have a Sky Poker Hoodie

    It took me nearly 6 years to get hold of one, but finally managed it at the last UKPC. I also still have my Sky Poker "Stress ball" which as you can imagine is quite useful for a man of my poker abilities :) It is getting a bit worn out now though, so I could do with a new one. (Hint Hint!)

    I love any kind of Poker Merchandise & wear my sky hoody with pride. It's quite a talking point in my local casino.

    More merchandise please.....Hoodies, T-Shirts, Socks, Sweat bands, stress balls, keyrings, mouse mats, baseball caps........it's endless.

    The more of them you give away the less exclusive they would be.

    The less exclusive they are the less people would want them.

    I have a few from FTP when they gave em away for knocking out a pro.

    I have  888 ones which are awesome quality.

    would love to get a sky one

    Poker shirts are exclusive, anyone can buy an I-pod, and for the site, it's a no brainer as it is basically free advertising.
