Where are the cheap Balloons?

[Melee's Mom]

This is a very silly situation that I am about to ask. DD2 loves Balloons. Does anyone has a collection of spots/places in the parks that sell balloons and prices? I know I saw them everywhere in the park but wondering if I can have some suggestions of where to get the lease expensive ones since we might have to get them in the daily basis (they deflate) for our 9 days trips? Any tips ? Thanks!

They're not cheap. I think we paid $5 or $6 for ours. They do not deflate quickly though. Ours lasted several days actually, so you might be able to get by only replacing it a couple of times. Buy the Mylar ones because they last a lot longer than latex... Also if you lose one because the ribbon breaks, keep the weight that it's tied to and they will replace the baloon for free. We bought ours from a vendor on Main st.

Thanks for the reply. I guess we are just gonna pay for it when DD2 wants one. $5*9=$45.I think it's a small price to pay for a pleasant day.

in Feb we bought a tink balloon for $$$ and 8 days later -on departure day- it looked brand new and we tied it to a tiny wheelchair (chid size) at the pool! ............. pixie dust at its best

Just remember, balloons are not allowed on most rides, and some people are very allergic to latex balloons, so bringing them into a restaurant can cause a problem sometimes. Also, they are not allowed into the AKL resort, and are not sold at AK.
