A few ways that $100 invested, can make you $800 return.
Buy a bulk quantity of cashews, say 100 pounds. Divide into half pound bags that are heat sealed.
Price per pound that you paid is $7.00, Sell a half pound for $7, the second half pound that you sell is pure profit. On a hundred pound purchase , you make back your original investment, of 700 and you also make a profit of 700 dollars. Do it again. Do it with pecans, and peanuts, and walnuts, and any other thing that you can buy and break down into smaller units, to sell.
The economics are simple, buy low, at wholesale, sell higher, at retail. Buy in bulk, such as seconds of candy bars, that are OK to eat but look sort of broken. Same with `seconds `of cookies, and cereal.
Boxes of cheap popsicles, or `freezies `that are liquid sugar and water. Sell to mothers with little kids, 50 in a box, for a couple of dollars. A cheap summer treat for the lower income people. Buy a few 50 lb bags of potatoes at the wholesale grocery warehouse, and take then around to the projects, sell 10 pound bags, or get a couple of women to buy a 50 pounder and split it, between them. Same thing for any type of in season fruit or veggies, that you can buy in bulk, and sell that day.
Baby diapers, in big packs. Find a wholesaler that will sell you a few dozen packages at a time. Double the price that YOU paid, you will still be way cheaper than the chain stores, as you have no overhead costs, like a warehouse, trucks, employees, and a payroll. Baby diapers are NOT a one time item, for sure. When the ladies get to know that you have the best prices, they will come back and bring their friends, too. As long as you bought the goods legally, and pay your taxes, you are looking at a nice sideline business. IF you need a business licence in your location BUY ONE. Be legal, and be happy.

you can do better than wal-mart?

something tells me poster is HOGWASH! sell potatoes in the projects. the peeps in the projects get everything FREE!
You are entitled to your opinion, but all of the things that I listed are small money makers that I HAVE done in the past. I also was a wholesale LIVE lobster buyer, buying over the phone from Nova Scotia, having them sent air freight to Toronto, that day, and delivering them to my up scale restaurant customers. Did that for a number of years.
I continue to make money from my efforts, although at this time my business deals in much bigger amounts of money . Be skeptical, I don`t really care, but also realize that some people see opportunity, where you may not see it.
