As George Carlin once said, if you make a thing, some schmuck will buy 
it.  Even a left nostril inhaler monogrammed with the state logo on it.

But from a retail point, a sale is a sale, regardless of what people 
bought it for. :)

Some people juggle geese, after all.

As for talbe number signs and so on - weddings are a thing, and some 
people have huge ones.  Most people also don't know that most restaurant 
supply stores will sell to the general public.  But if you want something 
customized, they're usually not set up for that sort of thing.

Another thing that people buy stuff like this for is marketing - for 
example, when I was teaching classes, we'd always have some giveaway for 
the students, and it always had the company name/logo on it.  So things 
like wine stoppers and other things that seem silly have their place in 
that market.
