'This was my first ever purchase from Truffle Shuffle...and what a fabulous purchase it was!! I had heard of Truffle Shuffle but as all the celebs were wearing bits from here (as I had seen in magazines) I thought it would be really expesive, but was plesently surprised!This Debbie Harry t-shirt was a birthday present for my sister, she absolutlely loves it. She hadn't seen this t-shirt before so was pleased as not everyone had it. It fits her lovely and she is always wearing it. When it arrived and had a look and love the quality, it feels so nice and expensive was happy to pay £25 for it also was pleased the delivery wasn't expensive. The packet love hearts were a bonus too we were both winners! Now just got to try and convince her she isn't actually Debbie Harry!! Thanks Truffle Shuffle have already decided to order most my Xmas presents from here. Keep up the good work!!'

Junk Food Clothing are top of the league when it comes to old school tees and their latest NFL collection is no exception!
From Miami Dolphins to Pittsburgh Steelers, Chicago Bears to The New York Jets, we've got tonnes to choose from, all on Junk Food's signature vintage tees and hoodies...
The NFL has been popular in the UK since the 1980's when it was first shown on TV and several games were played at Wembley during the 80's and early 90's. Started initially as the American Professional Football Association in 1920, the league changed its name to the National Football League in 1922 and is made up of 32 teams from across America. Each NFL team plays sixteen regular season games and then the top six teams in each conference compete in the playoffs until the NFC and AFC champions are crowned. The showcase of the season is the Superbowl when those two teams play for the Vince Lombardi trophy.
This official collaboration with the National Football League features exclusive vintage art and classic league imagery from one of our favourite brands but we've only got limited numbers available so grab yours now and prepare to pledge allegiance to your team of choice....
TruffleShuffle Helps Chernobyl Children
We were contacted recently by the Chernoble Childrenâs Project UK as they are organising a charity ball to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the Chernobyl accident and asked for our help with their fundraising.
The charity works with children in Belarus who have been affected by the nuclear disaster in 1986. Some of the many projects Chernobyl Children's Project undertakes include organising recuperative holidays in Britain for Belarusian children, providing sanatorium holidays for disabled orphans in cleaner areas of Belarus, delivering humanitarian aid, setting up projects in Belarus to improve the lives of suffering children and their families and providing training and support to make long-term changes to the lives of those affected by the accident.
The charity ball will be held on Saturday 1st October in Altrincham, near Manchester and has a 1980s theme and so we have donated a gift voucher for the raffle which the lucky winner can spend on our site!
If you fancy a night of entertainment, including an 80âs tribute band, a DJ, raffle and other 80âs themed games you can find out about more about the event and the charity on their website.
We wish the Chernobyl Childrenâs Project UK all the best with their event and fundraising and look forward to hearing all about it. (with talk of our Rubik's Cube fancy dress costume, there are sure to be some great photos of the event which we will be sure to share with you!)
Planning ahead...
We've all spotted the sparkling Christmas goodies appearing in the shops and although every year I say to myself, 'this Christmas I WILL be organised', I never seem to start shopping for gifts until the last week of December. This year I really don't have any excuses as we have been busily adding tons of new fabulous gift products, here's a little tempter to get you started...
I Feel The Need, The Need For Speed In 3D!!
If TruffleShuffle.com wasn't named after the dance Chunk does in The Goonies movie it would probably be called Great Balls Of Fire or something to do with Top Gun! Us Trufflers are huge 80's movies fans and so of course we were massively excited to hear about Top Gun being re-released in 3D.
So Maverick and Goose are getting ready to enter the danger zone once again with the added bonus of 3D. The company responsible for the remake are Legend3D and they have been busy at work converting the film for an early 2012 release however there hasn't been an official announcement by Paramount yet. According to Legend3D's CEO they want to get director Tony Scotts approval first, we do hope he likes it!
Just think - Tom Cruise, Val Kilmer, Kelly McGillis and the gang in 3 dimension, that fly by scene is going to be A-maz-ing!!
If Top Gun isn't your cup of tea then perhaps you might favour one of the other classic films getting the 3D re-release treatment with the Lion King out now and George Lucas planning to release ALL THE STAR WARS FILMS over the next couple of years!
What do you think? An opportunity to see the iconic film again on the big screen, another staff night out to be planned we think!
Wakka-Wakka-Wakka, Here comes Pac-Man!
Being a massive fan of old skool gaming I am very excited to unveil a new range of giftware featuring Pac-Man, everyoneâs favourite ghost-gobbling, pill-guzzling, motor mouth!
Iâm a huge fan of the all time classic arcade game and always used to get super excited whenever I would see the Pac-Man booth in the arcades, it was always the best way to spend my ten pence pieces! An interesting fact for you (possibly nicked from the Scott Pilgrim film...) is that Pac-Man was originally called Puck-Man, this comes from the Japanese phrase âPaku-Pakuâ which means to flap oneâs mouth open and closed. There you go, you learn something new every day!
I know itâs a little bit early to talk about as these gifts are going to be added throughout the next month, but I am really pleased to be able to show you what great things there are to look forward to. With products ranging from bottle openers to soap on a rope thereâs something for everyone! Hereâs a rundown of whatâs due.
Shaped just like the Pac-Man character with his distinctive eyes and open mouth, the Pac-Man Bottle Opener is guaranteed to be a conversation starter at any party. His distinctive yellow body and black eyes and mouth means heâll really stand out in your kitchen drawer. However, you probably wonât want to hide him away so two small magnets have been incorporated onto the back of the bottle opener allowing him to be attached conveniently to your fridge door. The presence of the two magnets also means bottle tops stick to the magnets once opened rather than being thrown on the floor, allowing them to be disposed off tidily.
The perfect gift for any stressed out video game enthusiast or retro collector. Can't finish that super hard level? Give Pac-Man a squeeze, we're sure he'll help!
