This week on What's Up Wednesday, we're halfway through the week, sales have been booming, and we have a new product available TOMORROW!
Pins are always great collector's items. And they are always very popular at Balloon Fiesta. And starting tomorrow, you'll be able to be first in line for an new exciting item in our pin line. The mystery pin box.
Here’s how it all kicks off: we’ve whipped up 12 super cool pin designs, and we’ve put 2 of them in a box. You’ll be scratching your head trying to guess which 2 pins you snagged until you actually buy and open the box. To get your hands on the whole set of 12, you’ll need to grab 6 boxes. But, since the pins in the sealed box are totally random, you might end up with a few duplicates. You’ll need to do some trading or maybe even buy a few more boxes to complete the set. Just a heads-up, there are only 1150 boxes up for grabs, and one of the pins is limited to just 100. Take a peek at the box picture to get a sneak peek at some of the pins included in this mystery project. The boxes will be “behind the counter,” so no refunds or exchanges. So, we’d recommend grabbing your mystery boxes ASAP and planning to swing by our Pin Trading event at 11 a.m. on Saturday in the Group Tours tent to hunt down those Mystery Pins you’re missing and trade off your duplicates. It’s going to be a blast collecting them!
Insider tip-another fun pin project is in the works. Stay subscribed to What's Up Wednesday for that reveal coming in November.

While most items are selling well, there may be some items left over after the event closes on Sunday. We'll be working to consolidate our multiple inventories back into the online and gift shop locations. That means, that if we sold out online, but had items left in our merchandise tents, they will appear back in stock online over the coming weeks. Plan to shop daily to see what shows up online.
Well, it's time to get back to Ballooning. Next week on What's Up Wednesday, we'll take a look at what's coming back into stock.
Thanks for your support of Balloon Fiesta and Balloon Fiesta Stuff.
