helium balloons..
Comments

I have a card shop and also have heium. I just want to tell you all by doing your own balloons you have a lot of messing around to save only a small amount. Shop around for prices ask if the balloons have been treated to last. Untreated balloons last around 10 to 18 hours. Treated balloons will last days.
Buying balloons online or eBay . Massive waste of time and money. Nobody in the business will fill them. Why, because of the helium shortage. All the card factorys I know have run out of gas and are uncertain when and if they will get a delivery of gas.
Also as a independent retailer I would like to say don't believe the card factory slogan. They sell small funny cards for 1.39 I sell them at .79p. My wrapping paper is 10p theirs starts at 40p. So why do they charge so much and try to say they are cheaper than their competitors. Also my balloons were comparable are they same price as card factory. Think, don't be a sheep. And don't belive marketing tricks that mislead and fool consumers.0
