In defence to Angie, don't shoot me down. Yes, you can buy this stuff cheaper in Home Bargains, but there is the time involved in putting the names on the bowls, the boxes cost money, postage is likely £5 on that box as those bowls are heavy. There has to be a profit or there is no point in doing it and people are happy to buy them. Not everyone can get out shopping to make something like this as a gift and it's a way of sending a gift to someone without all the hassle of shopping then posting it. I have to agree about the mugs though, bit too thick but I suspect they hold up well being shipped.
