By the time you’ve read this, according to the Centre for Retail Research (CRR) estimates, made before the Prince George’s arrival, baby fever would add £243 million to the UK economy.u00a0Earlier in July, The Times (UK) welcomed the Prince with a print ad of a swan delivering the royal baby, as opposed to a stork, which is perhaps fit only for commoners. A less regal approach was taken by Charmin, makers of toilet paper, who placed their product next to a gold potty, with the British flag and the royal coat of arms in the background. Warbuton’s, a baking firm, took a similar approach by showing a bun, fresh out of the oven with the line, “One’s bun is done.” These and other ads congratulating the royal family, gave the British economy a boost.
