Really pleased as we went to wholesalers for stuff for the business and they had loads of sensory/fidget type poppet and squishy toys that the kids seem to love at the moment.

So we picked some up for the boys and also some to sell at the christmas events we have booked up. Hoping theyll sell well as we can undercut other sellers by quite a bit and come out at just under aliexpress type import stores too but still making a small profit.

It made me realise how much extra some sellers are putting on top which is crazy!
We got some fidget caterpillars for around 90p that our local shop by the kids school is selling at £5.50 and theyre selling out everytime they come in.
 
Hope they sell well, I can't see why they won't as everyone is mad for them atm aren't they? I won't complain though as it makes it nice and easy to get hold of for those that need them :haha:
 
Wow that is quite a mark up! :shock: Glad you found some good stuff for your business and the boys! I hope you will make a nice profit!

Thanks. To be honest we’ve only put 50p-£1 mark up on each thing as I can’t justify some of the prices people are charging! Everyone’s feeling the pinch it just seems so unfair to inflate prices such huge amounts
 
I think they'll sell easily Kirsty. We sold a few spiky balls at our fireworks event at school and they sold out despite being most expensive item we had.

Off shopping with my mum/sister today. Looking for bits for DD1 as just painted her bedroom :)
 
£5.50 from £22 in the Entertainer

We had a new smyths toy store open by us and they have a £6 off a £15 spend voucher going round on facebook. We did a couple transactions and bought Scarlett the shimmer n sparkle foot spa and the art lab watercolour studio.
We bought Alex a Jurassic world therizinosaurus and his green and white Manchester United shirts got delivered. We also put down a deposit on a gaming pc for him.
