Ok, so I'm in my senior year of highschool and in Economics we are doing market day. We make groups of 4 people and each pitch in $35 each. We then go out and buy/make a product and on Market day, we sell the product(s) to try to make more money than we payed. The thing is, our group needs some ideas as to what to sell. We need cheap a cheap product(s) that we can make money off of from students. I was thinking vuvuzellas at first but we wouldn't be able to buy that many. Right now my only idea as of now are kazoo's. Thank you everyone ^^.
Sell some food. If your school has shitty food, home make it, and price it the same as the school food.
At my market day 4 people put in 100 each and got 750 back selling softdrinks

Soft drinks?. I always found that a silly word for soda.
Did you hear about the guy who got hit in the head with a can of soda?
Well he's lucky it was a soft drink.

Can't sell food without a food handlers liscence, nor are we allowed to sell food.

That was one of the greatest jokes I have ever heard.
Rootbeer floats.
Buy tubs of fairly cheap ice cream.
Buy liters of rootbeer.
Serve.
Did this for a fundraiser before, just overcharge (1.00-1.50).

Hard drinks were banned for being to dangerous, this is Australia after all.
Does anyone have any ideas? Our group needs an idea by tommarow (No foods or drinks are allowed to be sold).
Lumpia.
You'll make a fortune
Comon I really need some ideas.
Wait for prop 19 to be passed, buy pot in California, then sell it at your school.
I did market day in elementary school... I have my suspicions about you.
sell goldmember for $999

Silly Bandz?
Just buy monster/amp/whatever your school likes in bulk and sell it.
Or, sell dirt cakes. We made over 1000 for my senior class doing it.

Duct Tape wallets, or well, duct tape anything. You can get colored rolls from pretty much any craft store.

...or Wal-Mart.
When I did market day in year 9 everyone had to do something food based. Our group did pasta and we sold out and made like $600. You should probably do something like pizza, don't do anything weird or some useless crap no one wants like keyrings or something.
FYI they're called soft drinks because they contain no alcohol.

Actually this isn't a bad idea if you can figure out how to make a few.
Ok please read people. I said no food or drinks are allowed. Thanks for the good ideas. I'm liking the silly band ones.
Tortilla pizzas, tortillas, mozzarella cheese, various meats, pizza sauce, and oreageno. cheap, efficient, and delicious.
