$286 Profit in Target
This post may contain affiliate links. Disclosure here.
I have been avoiding shopping at Target and I’m not sure why.
Recently, I decided to break down that mental wall and I’m so glad I did! I’m so excited to share my sourcing trip with you that found me over $286 in profit.
Shopping Carts
First off, I was overly impressed with Targets shopping carts. They had 2 cup holders and a place to put both of my phones.
Just the shopping carts alone made shopping at target so enjoyable.
Toy Department
For my first trip I decided to source in the toy area ONLY!
TIP: If you are feeling overwhelmed by sourcing in a new store. I recommend focusing on ONE SECTION!
I wound up finding a toy that was ranking about 107,000. I paid $29.99, they are selling for $53.00 for a potential profit of $9.00
I found another toy that was ranking about 174,000. I paid $49.99, they are selling for $149.99 for a potential profit of $64.32. SCORE!
This toy was such a great find I wound up ordering 2 more online. That’s right, I did a little OA ( online arbitrage ) while doing RA ( retail arbitrage )
Which I am now calling ROA.
Just like that I found a $286 in profit on my first trip to Target!
I learned a valuable lesson that day. Take down my mental walls, pace myself, and be resourceful.
Conclusion
When feeling overwhelmed, take baby steps. YOU GOT THIS!
If you find a profitable item, see if you can also purchase more online or in another store close by.
