Holy crap!

That's a buttload of money you'll probably make!!!! Good luck!! Never heard of them around here, though.

alisonJ · 11-24-2009, 05:57 AM

awesome! I congratulate you on your entrepreneurial endeavour! I have not heard of these items, but I am not at all hooked into the younger kid scene. From the sounds of it, you are going to do very well!

pepe mint · 11-24-2009, 05:03 PM

they are VERY new. they are only making their way out slowly. trust me...give it time and they will be all over. they have been in our Nashville newspaper several times talking about where you can find them, etc. stores are having to limit how many people can buy at a time. it's nuts.

maxmom · 11-24-2009, 05:20 PM

Great timing! best of luck to you .

MANDEE. OK, I was in my chemistry class today and we were doing our lab and this one obnoxious kid who I can't stand was flinging this thing around the room and it landed on my table and I thought "that's a cool colored rubber band" then it changed into the shape of a BIRD and I realized that it was one of the bracelets and I was like !!!! "OH MY GOD YOU HAVE ONE OF THOSE!!?? THAT'S AWESOME!!" and now everyone thinks I'm really weird.

seeeeeeeeeeeee...................they are in NJ too??? oh that makes me so happy!!!! We set up our kiosk today and as we were carrying stuff in....AFTER THE MALL HAD CLOSED....we had people following us in asking if they could buy some right then. We open Friday morning at 5am...I am so excited!!!!!!!!!!! SO excited!!!!!!! I can't wait to report back this weekend and tell you all how great it went

WV~Yorkies · 11-25-2009, 11:47 PM

Good Luck!

I have never seen them.

JoshieBoy · 11-26-2009, 12:03 AM

Good Luck! I hope all the children come running to your venue to buy Silly Bandz, because you got something they want. I bet you will have a blast selling those bracelets to the children.

Ashley V · 11-26-2009, 02:42 AM

I think you'll sell them pretty easy... parents will buy just about anything for their kids and they'll make good stocking stuffers - mention that to the parents that come to look at them.

pepe mint · 11-26-2009, 12:42 PM

here's pics of our kiosk so far...still have a little more work to do to put the final touches on it. but i'm happy with it

RachelGenson · 11-26-2009, 02:07 PM

How exciting! The kiosk looks very nice. I cant wait to hear how well you do. I hope that you sell out of them. That would be a great Christmas bonus!!

hartygirl · 11-26-2009, 02:26 PM

Good luck girl! I remember when Beanie babies were all the craze! I don't know how when or why but I have an elephant silly band that has been on my desk for a month and I LOVE IT! I know you will make a profit! Crazy as it might be! My BIL has one of those trailers that he sells neon signs out of, they do AMAZING business! Its the small bright things that sell sell sell!!!!! Good luck!

BowBizDogBows · 11-28-2009, 01:09 AM

Egads, girl... that's EXCITING! Good for you for taking the entrepreneurial plunge!!! You'll have to let us all know how it's going! Good luck.

Gingergirlsmom · 11-28-2009, 03:59 AM

I wish you all the luck in the world! Let's see, it's the day after black Friday...I hope you sold out!

On a personal note, as a teacher I'm glad for the heads up. I can just see these things flying around my room after Christmas...

luvfla · 11-28-2009, 04:39 AM

Ginger...just keep your head down.
I'm anxious to hear how Black Friday went for y'all!
