The Terrible T-Shirt Dilemma.

Here’s the thing. Go over to GoonBlog and look at our cool new logo which I paid to have someone do properly. DVS and I, in the name of goodwill and free publicity, planned to have the logo printed on the front of a T-shirt (and a funny saying like “Shit Disturber” or “Drop the Gloves” on the back) and to then give them away to friends and people who frequent our site. I even had an apparent hook-up with a local company. But we’re running into challenges, the least of which is our collective addiction to Slapshot and booze.

To screen the 4 color logo is cost prohibitive – we’re looking at many hundreds of dollars at even friendly prices. And a one-color screen on one side of a shirt is too simple and blah. We may have to settle for that, but we’re not ready to roll over and give in yet. For things other than bum sex, anyway. Cafepress or Zazzle would be easy, but we’re talking about heat-transfers at that point, and even then they come in at a $14-25 cost- per-shirt and we could never expect to sell them and definitely not give them away for free.

My question is simply this – does anyone have any experience with this sort of thing? There has got to be a better solution. T-shirts cost $2 for flip’s sake. We’ve put men on the moon, we can manufacture a logo’d shirt for less than $20. Any guidance is appreciated. You’ll get a shirt out of the deal. But honestly, probably bum sex if DVS has his way.
