Here's Some Of The Royal Baby Merchandise That Will Bring Millions Of Dollars To The British Economy
The offspring of British royals Will and Kate is expected to give a $380 million boost to the British economy, according to a report from the Centre for Retail Research released Monday.
That's a huge amount of money to spend considering the report only covers a nine-week period in July and August (Kate's due date is July 13). The $380 million figure takes into account alcohol for celebrations, souvenirs, toys, books and baby products.
Here's some photos of Royal Baby merchandise that hit the Internet after Kate's pregnancy announcement several months ago:
