“The Office,” Dunder Mifflin Paper is now available for purchase.
For all you fans of “The Office,” that have been wishing for the opportunity to combine your love of the television show and your daily office job, your wish has come true.
Dunder Mifflin Paper will now be available on Staples-owned Quill.com. The carton are priced at $34.99 and advertised as 20-lb. 92 bright and 100% fun, according to the website.
Wall Street Journal explained in a recent article about this idea of reverse product placement and said, “For decades, marketers have worked to embed their brands in the plots of TV shows and movies as a way to stand out in a crowded ad market.

Let us know what you think.
