What sort of goods is she selling? I mean, if it's sex  aids, I have no idea what sells and what doesn't but could probably give you the names a a few people who'd know. On the other hand, if it's fish, I like cod, skate, lemon sole, sardines, halibut and smoked salmon.


Come on - give us a clue!

It's always handy to stock things like sugar and shoe polish as people don't always want to go to the supermarket for one item.

or Foil?

Space Raiders - 10p a packet in pickled onion (best seller), beef, spicey and salt and vinegar. These are always good sellers with kids.


Sweets - again 10p packets of kids sweets like rainbow drops, Irn Bru chews, etc.


For the adults CDM, Nestle and Mars will always sell.


Always handy to stock some boxes of chocolates - Black Magic, Milk Tray, etc for the arsehole who's forgotten the birthday/anniversary, etc.

Things like Kitkat, Mars, Snickers, Dairy Milk, Maltesers, Aero, etc will sell well. And Coke and Pepsi. Also large bottles of pop like Fanta, and Walkers crisps. Basically all the big brand names.

If it's a posh area then sell upmarket stuff like Kettle Chips and so on.

Posh crisps.


623 does she have a liquor licence? If so a decent range of cheap plonk and spirits is a good idea - play on those desperate for a drink and short on cash! And of course impulse buy items at the counter are always good. My sister worked in an off-licence at the time the Big Purple One was launched and noticed people would just grab one at the till without eveb looking at what it was, just because it was new.

Snap! It's always when you're cooking and think you have enough and only realise halfway through you haven't.
