The Mylar Foil Balloons story

Mylar Foil balloon is the proper name of such balloons shown here which originates from USA... Disneyland kind of balloons with colorful characters and
wordings on it. Mostly it is inflated by Helium gas which density is lighter than
air and it floats upwards to the delights of the children and the child in us.
It costs some money to blow them up in Helium air compared to normal inflation
by compressed air. You also need to look for company who provides the helium
air services.
These are more impressive than the rubberised balloons which are commonly available. The difference boils down to the budget you have in planning your occasions.
However, you can always devise plan to use such for certain section of your deco and the rest using the rubberised balloons... you can fill up a few pieces with Helium gas and the rest of foil balloons by normal air... so saving costs and yet having all the elements of a assorted balloons party.
I could help you with further savings here to supply you with these foil balloons. Savings come with conditions attached... ha..ha..
Conditions as follows:-
+These are not from the USA!
+These are from the country that hosted Olympic Games 2008! (**note)
+These are a fraction of the American/European made balloons!
+These are tested not suitable for Helium gas.( the seam burst readily).
+These are well to use for normal air and is doing the same as an USA made. So, if you intend just to blow these up using normal air... and unable to get a helium gas supplier and all its teething arrangement. Use these balloons at S$1.00 per piece, set of 50 pcs per pack. If i have loose pack, you can take smaller quantity.
+These balloons measured approximatley 16inches(40cm) in diameter or across flats.
**Note : There are factories in China that produces better balloons that matches USA made balloons. However, these balloons I have are not from such quality factories. I have yet to locate them. Regret.

Event organisers need balloon pump

This is a useful piece of electrical appliance that an event organiser would need... To blow up
1... 2... or even a dozen of rubberised balloons is fine for the chap with a inflatable lung... But not when you are having a event when you requires hundreds of these balloons by a certain timing!!!
An event company first approached me and I got them some models like those shown on the left. It works out well for them and now each 1 or 2 months,, they placed an order of 5 to 10 pieces with me to bring them in.
It is pretty simple to operate. Once you switched on the electrical supply of AC230V; there is these 2 blow tubes here which can be slightly depressed. You capped the balloon opening onto the tube, depressed it together with the feeling grips of your thumb and fingers, it activates the electric motor blower and air is blown up to inflate your balloon is a snap of less than 3 seconds... You have to be quick and agile to remove it once your desired balloon size is achieved. You will get a hang of it once you blew up a few of the balloons.
These are going now at $95 each... nett. You can get a discount if you are going to take from me regularly with a minimum order of 4 pieces like what this event organiser is doing. They are selling it as regularly as they had bought it from me... believing that they have a attractive margin too... I had not checked where and who is selling it locally and at what price???
