Recession-Proof Love
By Wendy | January 28, 2009
Times are tough. And we’re responding by bringing a bit of humor to this “bear market.” Our new limited-edition “Recession-Proof Love” Bear is sure to be a popular Valentine’s Day gift. We also realize the irony of making a limited-edition, recession-themed Bear with a price tag just under $100. In the words of our VP of Marketing Irene Steiner: “We wanted to come up with a relevant Bear that recognizes where our country is at financially, and the “Recession-Proof Love” Bear is an all-in-good-fun reflection of the current ‘bear market. This collectible Bear is a great way for couples to commemorate Valentine’s Day 2009 when times were tough, but they made it through together.” The limited-edition “Recession-Proof Love” Bear (only 200 will be made) wears a wooden barrel that’s printed with “You’re my best asset” on the front — the perfect Valentine’s Day sentiment for couples making it through in today’s troubled economy. And just like all Vermont Teddy Bears, the “Recession-Proof Love” Bear is handmade right here in the USA in Shelburne, Vermont, and is unconditionally guaranteed for life. “So unlike the recession,” says Irene, “the Bear will last forever.”
