With us at first we were able to get most things at the clubs (Sams & Costco). When we started setting up at Carnivals and Fairs one hurdle we face was meeting the needs required for those locations. Cotton Candy was just one example. We first bought a cheap machine to make the cotton candy and found out it took up too much room and was too messy. A place online we were buying the Floss from also told me about a pre-made one in these foil bags that had a shelf life for 6 months. Here is where we got them : http://nationwidecandy.com/candy/ItemRelations.asp?GROUP=18&CHOICE=66 It saved us the mess and best of all we could meet the needed demand better. Just some of my thoughts. Getting started is not as easy as everyone thinks so good luck setting up. You know one thing you did not talk about is where to get items needed for the trailer.
