My Grandmother is addicted to personalised mugs and I am her pusher. This is a humourous presentation I gave to an investors meeting.
Where I bought them:

2. How it Began
My Grand Mother is a sweet person, would never
hurt a fly.
I had trouble Finding her a gift
She would always say it didn’t
matter what I bought her, but I
knew better.
3. So It Begins
So I decided to Buy her some personalised mugs
She loves drinking tea
She already had a nice collection
It was a bad diea
4. Learning about Addictive Personalities
My Grandmother has an addictive personality
She requires an enabler and something to start an
interest
I became both, sparking her interest in personalised
mugs
5. How It Worked
I bought her personalised mugs online for her
birthday, anniversary and for Christmas
After awhile she began to expect them from
everyone
Soon enough she would start buying them herself
6. The Addiction
She would spend several hundred pounds a month
on new personalised mugs, most of her pension was
going towards it.
Her kitchen became crowded with mugs
We had to Stop her
7. The Intervention
While she was away we all went into her flat and
waited for her
When she came home, with a fresh personalised
mug in her hand, we confronted her
We convinced her to give it up, she now only owns
two mugs
