Christmas jumpers being sold cheap thanks to very rude printing error

Christmas jumpers are back on the shopping list for many people and Google searches have already hit record highs for the festive fashion.

So while retailers shouldn’t have any issues shifting their jumper stocks, it could be trickier for one businessman who’s been left with 1,000 special edition, Christmas jumpers to sell following a rude misprint by a supplier.

Karl Baxter, Managing Director of Wholesale Clearance UK purchased the stock from a supplier earlier this month, after they opted against selling the dodgy designs in their high-street stores.

At first glance, the jumpers appear innocent, with a snow tipped collar, sleeves, hem and snowflakes. However, if you look a little closer the larger snowflakes appear to look like something else entirely.

Given the nature of the jumper, Mr Baxter thought it appropriate to raise money for a men’s health charity and is appealing to any humorous festive fans to tap into their ‘naughty but nice’ side this Christmas by purchasing one of the jumpers.

The wholesaler is hoping to sell the Christmas jumpers for a discounted price of £10 so that he can donate a percentage of the proceeds to Prostate Cancer UK.

According to data, prostate cancer will be the most common of all cancers by 2030, with more and more men getting diagnosed each year.

“At Wholesale Clearance UK we buy unwanted or surplus stock from retailers to try and avoid any products being sent to landfill.

“So, when I was contacted by this particular supplier, we naturally stepped in to help shift the stock.

“This year we’re appealing to consumers to see the funnier side and stand out from the crowd by purchasing one of our jumpers.

“With the funds raised from the sales, we hope to donate the proceeds Prostate Cancer UK, to help fund prostate cancer research and increase awareness of the disease this Christmas.”
