Even the 75000 inhabitant city I live in has a balloon shop, but also one for brushes. Also in the neighboring city there used to be a shop just for rubber.

- 1337biz 8y agoI imagine the margins for balloon shops incredibly good.
- microtherion 8y agoThey keep most of their inventory uninflated so storage requirements are not that big and the designs keep a long time, and for non-specialists, it's generally not worth keeping bottled Helium around, so it's a pretty decent business I suppose.
- pnutjam 8y agoI buy my inflated balloons at the "dollar store", which is a good deal since they are 3.99 or more at the grocery store.
- waste_monk 8y agoAre you suggesting the prices are inflated?
- thrax 8y agoI wonder how many of the specialist shops are just a byproduct of a population of highly ambitious fetishists...
- Bombthecat 8y agoMy old small town has one...it is still there after years... This city / village has 14.000 people there. No idea how this shop survives. But it seems to work. Or they are tax evasion scams. Who knows.
