Flip Those Pound Shop Sales
Unless you have been hiding in some far off place, you will have noticed and seen and felt lack of money that is going around the world. But I do not want this article to be all doom and gloom, we are in a business where we can make a profit and at the same time help these business by buying up all these items at cheap prices, and then sell them on for a profit.
When you are out and about keep your eyes and ears open for those bargain sales. Some of the places where you will find these items are :
- PoundShops
- Discount Shops
- Wal-Mart
- Shops where they have deep discounts
In fact keep those eyes open, you know those buy 2 get one free offers you can make great profits on those type of sales. One craze that is happening in stores in the UK is buy one get two free. Yes that’s right buy one item and then get two items free. If the product and price is right then you are laughing all the way to the bank.
Another tip that I have found that works, is we are at the end of the summer months now, and these discount shops have stacks of Sun Tan Lotions and After Sun Lotions in stock, and they are selling them off at silly prices. Check the sell by date and buy a few dozen. You can either put them straight up on eBay and Amazon (remember people are still going abroad and it is still hot and sunny over seas. Or if the sell by date is long enough keep them for next summer. If you buy at the right price and sell at the right price then quite often there is a profit of a a few pounds on each item.
Another thing to look out for in these shops is the discontinued items, again if you know what you are buying and the pricing is correct then massive profits can be made by buying these items at a , low price and flipping them hours later for a higher price. This is the name of the game – Buy Low, Sell High.
