Selling snacks at school

Snack Sales at School

I’m currently selling snacks at school and typically make around $30, with my highest earnings being $61.50. Aside from Gatorade, what other snacks, candies, and drinks could I offer, and what would be reasonable prices for them? Also, any advice on how to avoid getting caught selling and managing requests for free candy would be appreciated!

    Tips to Avoid Getting Caught:

    1. Keep a Low Profile: Sell discreetly during less crowded times, like lunch or between classes, and avoid being too loud when promoting your snacks.
    2. Use Containers: Use a backpack or lunchbox to store and transport your snacks so they’re not too visible.
    3. Limit Your Inventory: Don’t carry too much stock at once. Having a small amount can reduce suspicion.
    4. Build Relationships: Make friends with potential customers and build trust. This may reduce the chances of them snitching.
    5. Occasional Free Samples: Offering tiny samples to close friends can help build rapport, but be cautious about giving free snacks too often, as this could lead to word getting around.
    6. Offer Unique Products: Stand out by offering snacks that other sellers don’t have. Unique products can attract more customers and keep your sales steady.

    Remember to be respectful of the school’s rules and regulations regarding selling items on campus. Good luck with your snack-selling venture!
