Oh boy...wish me luck!!!!!!! this could go REALLY good...or REALLY bad! 4 Attachment(s) have you heard of "silly bandz"???? they are all the kids around here are talking about right now. they are animal shaped rubber bands that kids wear as bracelets. They stretch like a rubber band...but go back to their original shape. if you google "silly bandz" you can see exactly what they are. well...without going into a lot of detail...Terry and I have just bought 50,000 packages of them and will have a kiosk at our local mall selling them...opening on Black Friday. If all goes well, we can PROFIT over $20,000 off of just this one batch we have. we have been told by a few others across the country that have these at kiosk's that they have sold out of their inventory within 4 hours of opening. OMG that would just be so insanely crazy!!!!! that is more money than I would know what to do with (don't get me wrong...I will find plenty "to do" with the money)...but it almost seems to good to be true. and you know what they say!!!!!!! here are a few pics of what it is we are selling. I have NO idea why they are so popular..but they are...and that's all that matters. I know this "fad" will probably not last long...but we will be the only supplier for these in the mall (and it's a very nice mall)..and the only 2 other places in our area that I know that sells them are always sold out. sooooooooo....wish me luck LOL I just went from being jobless to working full time selling these darned things HAHAHAHA |
Good Luck!!!!! |
ahhh!!! GOOD LUCK MANDEE & TERRY!!!!!! I've never heard of them, but the strangest things are fads lately! hahaha. I hope it all goes well!!! :love: |

Hey the only way you can make a fast buck is through fads and perfect timing! Trust me I know first hand! (Von Dutch anyone? HAHAHA!!!) Good luck! I have a good feeling about this! |
Good Luck..hope you sell out the first day!!!! |
Great timing! Good luck! |
OH MY GOSH, HOW COOL!!!! GOOD LUCK TO YOU!!!! I would really like an update on this! I pray you sell them all! :) |
Those are pretty cute!! Good luck. |
I just found out about these this week. Several ladies at work have been trying to get their hands on some for their kids/grandkids. So they've been calling these 2 stores for what seems like a week trying to see if they've gotten a shipment. Finally one store got them and ALL of these women were like mad people at lunchtime trying to get to this store to pay like $8 for a bag of 24 of them. I told them that it was nuts to pay that much for rubberbands! LOL! Congratulations girl! You may just be $20000 richer soon. |

I asked my daughter about them and they aren't the craze here.....yet!!!! I wish you luck!!! sell...sell..sell!!! |
Holy crap! :eek: That's a buttload of money you'll probably make!!!! Good luck!! Never heard of them around here, though. |
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! |
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. |
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. :p |

Good Luck! I have never seen them. |
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. :) |
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. |
2 Attachment(s) 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 :D |
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!! |
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! |
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. ~ Susan |
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...:D |
Ginger...just keep your head down. I'm anxious to hear how Black Friday went for y'all! |
