Hampers at a bootsale/table top

Hi everyone,
I have been selling hampers, sweet boxes, chocolate baskets, filled sweet cups, filled party bags etc on facebook and ebay, but I've now decided to maybe have a spot at a funday.
My question is, is it worth it? Has anyone else got experience doing the same? The spot is £7 although i'm not too bothered about the money too much as it's for a really good cause.
Any advice would be much appreciated
Kelly

You'll need public liability insurance (although you should have that anyway as you are selling to the public). And it completely depends on the day; some days are great, some are awful loss makers.
You need to ensure your products are priced at what people would take to a table top sale (cheap). Even if this means doing smaller lines, or completely new ones.0
