Find cheap inventory
Find something cheap.
A lower buy price gives you more room for profit.
Most people can't price an item low enough to sell it easily because they paid too much.
A lower buy price gives you more options.
Who has more room for profit?
Here's why I love buying clearance from retail stores.
Each store has limited shelf space but new inventory keeps coming in.
That means the same exact product can be full price at one store but deeply discounted on clearance at another. Even if it's just down the road.
Clearance doesn't mean the product is bad. Stores just need to make space on the shelves.
Start with normal retail stores.
Walmart. Target. Home Depot. Lowe's. CVS. Walgreens.
You don't need a secret supplier. You need a low price that can turn into a profit.
So how do you find these low prices?
You can walk around stores and look manually. Or you can use tools that tell you what to look for before you even leave your house. (Recommended.)
