The Trend of Micro, Mini, and Compact is Being Replaced by Great Big Stuff™

While miniturization has been the trend for several years, GreatBigStuff.com is bringing BIG back into fashion with their oversized replicas of everyday items for use as decor, gifts, displays and props for use by those that Think Big!

Middletown, DE (PRWEB) April 1, 2005

Great Stuff, Inc., the Delaware-based operator and owner of http://www.GreatBigStuff.com – the e-commerce website dedicated to the manufacture and sale of uniquely oversized versions of everyday objects – and trademarked Great Big Stuff™, announced that the company is experiencing a growing demand by consumers and businesses alike for its high-quality products, many of which are one-of-a-kind exclusives from around the world.

“We are very excited by the increasing nationwide demand for Great Big Stuff as consumers and businesses find more ways to use these products to augment their activities and lives,” said Jeff Bruette, founder and president of Great Stuff, Inc. “Whether you want to decorate an office or dorm with oversized stationary supplies, gift the family athlete with an oversized sports ball or are looking for memorable gifts to send to your clients, you can surely find something unique at Great Big Stuff.”

Consumer sales have been overwhelming with orders focusing on the novelty and gift-giving potential of the company’s unique products, especially the Great Big Crayon (see http://www.GreatBigStuff.com/crayon.html), Great Big Cup & Saucer set (see http://www.GreatBigStuff.com/newcupsaucer.html), Great Big Diamond Ring (see http://www.GreatBigStuff.com/ring.html), Great Big Aspirin (see http://www.GreatBigStuff.com/aspirin.html)and the Great Big Lighter (see http://www.GreatBigStuff.com/lighter).

Businesses and entertainment media have also been quick to order from Great Big Stuff for numerous promotional purposes. To date, the company’s offerings have appeared in Trading Spaces: Boys Vs. Girls (Great Big Baseball Glove Chair [see http://www.GreatBigStuff.com/baseballchair.html]), ABC’s Extreme Makeover: Home Edition (Giant Gavel [see http://www.GreatBigStuff.com/gavel.html], Giant Guitar Picks [see http://www.GreatBigStuff.com/picks.html] and Giant Computer Key seat [see http://www.GreatBigStuff.com/keystool.html]), The Drew Carey Show (Giant Clothespins [see http://www.GreatBigStuff.com/clothespin.html]), Ellen De Generes Show (Giant Ice Cream Cone [see http://www.GreatBigStuff.com/cone.html], Giant Scissors [see http://www.GreatBigStuff.com/scissors.html], Giant Coffee Cup [see http://www.GreatBigStuff.com/newcupsaucer.html] and more). Major retailers such as the May Company (Giant Push Pins [see http://www.GreatBigStuff.com/pushpin.html]) and Target Corporation's former subsidiary Mervyn’s (Giant Boxing Gloves [see http://www.GreatBigStuff.com/box.html]) have effectively used GreatBigStuff.com's products to enhance their in-store merchandising displays. Other clients include Paramount Studios (Giant Movie Clapboards [see http://www.GreatBigStuff.com/clapboard.html]) and Universal Studios Florida (Giant Chinese Food Take-out Box [see http://www.GreatBigStuff.com/takeout.html]).

“Our customers seem to be almost evenly balanced between individuals shopping for their personal likes or a gift, retailers wanting the eye-catching display, businesses looking for memorable client gifts, event planners in search of decor to carry out a theme, and the entertainment industry an photographers in need of oversized props.” added Bruette. “Whatever the need is, it seems that 'big' is back in fashion.”

Other items that continue to generate great big interest are the great big lollipops (see http://www.GreatBigStuff.com/chupa.html) that weigh in at a pound, and more recently, the great big ballpoint pens (see http://www.GreatBigStuff.com/pen.html) that are 18-inches long.

Company History

The company’s genesis dates back to 2001 when Bruette began selling larger-than-life pop-art décor items on eBay. What started as a hobby for Bruette soon became a full-time occupation. Recognizing this interest as a fantastic business opportunity, Bruette created an e-commerce website and Great Big Stuff was born. Today, the company offers more than 100 products and occupies 3,600 square feet of warehouse space. Sales revenue is expected to exceed one million dollars by the year 2006.
