I just lost alot of money trying to shoot the GD red star out of a piece of paper. The fukin gun shoots the bbs all over the place. I hate/love that game, done it every year forever and I have never ever won. I see all the other stars people knocked out ? But I can never do it. I dont know how to make money at them, I think in the US they are all controlled by 1 or 2 companies that travel the country. But you can always follow Joe Dirts method, spray Pam on the plates![]()
A vendor booth (with a decent location) at a show with a nice crowd will bring in nice cash...1-2k a day profit. I have a close friend that sells corn at a local flea market and he nets 3k a weekend.
The problem is:
1. getting into a show with a product they don't already have.
2. Locating a good spot at the show
3. Seasonal (weather wise) unless you live in a warm climate
4. With food, come city health permits (more overhead)
I do have some further experience in this field. If you have specific question regarding flea markets let me know.
Watch the movie Joe dirt and you'll see what he meantYou don't make sense. :wt:
I alwasyh thought of selling a product or giving out free trials at flea markets and fairs. Hand out flyers promoting something or just leave at stack at the door..
As far as the games go. I won a xbox off a fair game when you toss the balll into the basket thats raised high and tilted.
There are guides on the internet on how to beat them..
Basically tell the vendor to shutup while your playing,. They are they to distract you..
I stopped going to fairs, always end up fighting after i get a few bears in me
I did the fair circuit for a couple of years (and mall kiosks as well)... selling magic tricks! (hence the name, MagicMike).
I would demonstrate the tricks, by basically putting on a 5 minute show every 15 minutes... and then sell the DVD package that teaches all of the tricks. Very high profit margin and always did very well.
The problem is, there is a lot of traveling and not a great lifestyle unless you're really into it... but it does work if you have a big enough profit margin.
