  • Hi Yes i could also do with some priceing help i am making the poop etc, for a charity, and i am having a stand at a xmas fare, i asked this question on one of the other threads and someone told me 50p a bag but i cant make them for that, the sweets are costing me more, so slightly worried now:eek:
  • Cover your costs above all else otherwise it's not worth doing. Add a little bit on top and you're away.

    It's difficult to say how much as it depends on where you live and how much people have to spend.
  • Hello again,

    I think that i am going to charge 75p - still at pocket money price but not too cheap that you wont make a profit hope this helps x:D
  • Reindeer poo I sell at 50p a bag or 3 for £1 - they cost me 22p each to make, so not making much profit (probably none if you add in my time) when people buy 3, but it does tend to get them to look at other things, so bit of a loss leader.

    I buy the poo at 65p for 200g (Aldi) and split into 4 bags (eBay) so 50g per bag, add a card topper, stick down with double sided tape. I know they are small bags, but people seem quite happy to buy them! sold out at last sale :)

    What else are you selling?
  • thank you! I am also making bags of jazzies and calling them fairy wishes and also snowman soup and little bits that i have found on this forum:D
