Fusion badges are sweeping the nation! Well not literally but they are darn cool! Right now you should be thinking to yourself… “WOW awesome!”, “Where do I get them?”, “Can I buy tons for me and my friends!!!?”. I did say what you should be saying. Instead you’re probably saying “What is a Fusion Badge?”
Well the answer is right here. A Fusion badge is the newest light up accessory. It’s literally a medallion that you wear around your neck and it lights up in different patters. What’s great about them also is that the large circular center leaves a huge spot for personalization!
I’ve seen people use them as name badges, team identifiers for night sports, and even as picture frames to light up the image! These things are really cool. The pictures don’t always do them justice so here’s a video clip as well:
I’ve been asked how our prices are so low in comparison to local party shops and other online retailers. While there are lots of answers to this question I’ll stick to the main points:
We buy in bulk, now when I say bulk I mean by the container loads, you know those big semi-trailers driving down the highway, there’s a good chance they’re coming to us.
We have a lower overhead then traditional party stores since they have to maintain a high rent in a retail market. They also have to worry about items being stolen from their stores.
Volume selling, if you notice most of our items are packaged by the dozen, 2 dozen, or gross, this allows us to reduce the price to the consumer while still inking out a profit. Many times our dozen price is the same that a party store would charge you for 3 or 4 of the item (seriously go check).
The next question is always: What about your quality? Do you sacrifice it to give us lower prices?
NO. We don’t, this is a family run business and we sell to families. If an item comes in that we don’t think we would have at one of our own birthday parties or celebrations then it doesn’t even make it into our warehouse simple as that.
That being said we do sometimes sell these substandard items in our CLOSEOUT section or the Some Do Some Don’t section, both of which clearly state what the reason is for the firesale on the items.
There are several different patterns for paper flat wear and place settings from pumpkins, to skulls, to a playful devil. Don’t forget the tablecloths, plastic silverware, napkins and cups to match!
Decorations are key to throwing a theme party. We’ve got all you need to set the scene and transform any room into Halloween town. A great way to change any boring room into a Halloween Haven is with our Scene Setters.
Pick from our array of table confetti, table skirts, hanging spiders, dangling lights in ghost, pumpkin, or spider shapes. There are even wall hangings to easily tape up for an instant room transformation. Then jazz it up with stick on fake foot prints, safe and realistic battery operated tea lights… best of all, these are all reusable!
So to give everyone an idea on how successful vending can be I’ve decided to include a post detailing what one of our customers was able to do in 1 hour.
At an Illinois Suburb of Chicago with about 5,000 people present one customer vended almost $700 worth of product. He would have sold (vended) more but he ran out of the most popular item the LED 7 color stick.
Most of his success vending was due to high quality bright products and the fact that he only carried two different items. The biggest problem a vendor can have is not being able to close the deal fast. The longer it takes to please one customer the less selling you’ll be able to do. By giving only one or two options you enable them to quickly select give you the money and leave. You can also then upsell them if the two items are different enough.
Here his other item was the LED necklace, with a good number of people getting one of both. What also
helped was a complimentary pricing system. He sold them for $3 a piece or 2 for $5. The $5 price point for two enabled families with multiple children to easily and affordably make everyone happy. Also he allowed mix and matching, so if one child wanted both a LED stick and an LED necklace then that would still only cost them $5.
To see his profits take his $700 and subtract his total cost of approximately $1.25 per item (288 items). So you get $700 - 360 for product = $340 in one hour!
Admittedly he wished he had several vendors and a lot more product, more planning for next year I guess. But still he made mroe in 1 hour then in several days worth of work at his job.

Children love to dress up and pretend (the benefits of which can be read about here), sometimes even taking some of their Mom’s jewelry or make up to help their imaginations. And this is great, except for the fact that sometimes you don’t want them playing with your heirloom ring or even your own costume jewelry because it could hurt them.
Well what if you could give them light-up jewelry that not only lets them make pretend, but also is a cool accessory for just going out with the other kids? Well now you can!
Windy City Novelties, Inc. has tons of great LED light up items in the form of rings, necklaces, bracelets, hair pins and much much more. Its always amazing to me when I see the local neighborhood children running around at night with our light up jewelry adorned everywhere.
And don’t think these are just for little kids, teens and even college aged love light up jewelry too, they wear it for parties, to the club, or even just when its the girls going out!
