[Phpwomen] PHPWomen Merchandise: Good Idea?

[Lorna Mitchell]

Tess,

Yes these are the guys that have printed all the European phpwomen
shirts, they're just down the road - don't think they can do the
on-demand print stuff though like cafepress although they are great
for gettings things printed when we want them in bulk.

The best I've seen so far is Felix's recommendation of spreadshirt I
think, but not sure if they will ship (affordably) worldwide.  Hmm.
