Evidence of the Royal Wedding frenzy has even crept its way into the payment’s world.
On some 750,000 Oyster cards, which let you tap to pay for transportation in London, is the smiling faces of Prince William and Catherine Middleton.
Heralding the debut of the Royal Wedding Oyster card, Mayor of London Boris Johnson really hyped up the commemoration:
“Just as royal wedding fever starts to take hold in the city, this fantastic commemorative Oyster card is a great chance for Londoners and visitors to have a slice of the action as a fabulous memento of the happy day,” said Johnson in a statement. “I would also recommend the card to the happy couple as the cheapest, easiest way of getting around this city, especially as it bears their resemblance.”
