 Good things to sell at festivals?  1

Looking to supplement some of the crazy amounts of money I'll be blowing on festivals this summer. What are some good things (besides drugs) to sell? I'm looking for people with some prior experience to let me know what are the best selling items, and maybe some advice on what to charge as well. Thank you shroomerites!

Burritos is always the stereotype I've known.
However they may be too prevalent. Unless you can make a bomb fucking burrito.

You'll probably get nugs as trade... And some of those hippie guys have dank nugs too!
If people have cash, charge them whatever seems right. A hungry stoned dude would pay $2 for a good grilled cheese which may cost you 25 cents. Some poor crusty hippie may offer a $10 nug!
Barter is fun!

Buy a bunch of WalMart t's and get something catching printed on the shirt by a local company near you. Then sell.

you dont have to sell drugs, they sell themselves and while the
profit margin isnt the greatest like burritos and grilled cheese
everyone seems to want to buy them, unlike burritos and grilled
cheese... you could build a huge customer base from all walks of
life, musicians, hippies, wookies, yuppies, preppies, piggies...
yep, certainly the in vogue product for festies

grilled food (fajitas, burritos, grilled cheese, etc)
beer!
liquor drinks (have variety, mixers, etc and a blender for added bonus)
glass (only makes sense if you know somebody who blows wholesale and can give you cases for cheap)
shirts (only makes sense if you know somebody who can screenprint them for cheap and if you have creative ideas)
cigarettes
basically any item that you can get for half-price at a big-box store, but that people tend to run out of or forget at festivals.

Definitely agree with this. Pick up a few cases of some good local craft beers that aren't available around the area of the fest (and also maybe pick up some shitty macros too for the tools that don't like good beer) and either sell them or barter. As Rooster mentioned, bartering for nugs is always the best way.

Simple hot foodstuffs is the way to go. Grilled Cheese is the epitome of easy and cheap, and every stoned hungry person in the world loves em.

many festivals don't allow glass bottles, though, so you have to jedi that shit in.
1 for $3, 2 for $5. if you are a heavy drinker don't expect to make any money, but it's funny getting drunk all afternoon long for free

There is actually a lot of craft stuff in cans these days. Of the top of my head;
Oscar Blues
Caldera
Surly
Southern Star Pine Belt Pale
SKA Modus Hopperandi
Sly Fox
21st Ammendment
And many others, I'm sure.
I'd like to see more craft breweries canning beer, for the exact reason you mentioned, that campgrounds, beaches, some festivals, etc. don't allow glass.

Does it make me a bad person if I've seriously considered trying to organize a prostitution ring on the circuit?
