School store suggestions?
I'm in a business class where part of our grade is to run the school store. We do it during lunch periods, so we can't sell food because we aren't allowed to "compete with the cafeteria" as our principal says.
So far, we've come up with paper notebooks, pens, pencils, cheap nailpolish, index cards, and cap erasers. We give away paw-print stickers with every purchase (our mascot is a bulldog). We can't sell school-spirit items because that's what our student council/leadership committee does... it's their territory. Other than food and school-spirit items, we can sell anything.
Other ideas I've come up with but have yet to tell my teacher:
Mini handsanatizer, tissues, 5-stick packs of gum (people are ALWAYS asking me for those).
I guess I'm asking is other suggestions. If you have a school store, what items sell the most? If you don't - what would you buy if you did?
At the end of the semester, we're donating our profits to Habitat for Humanity (each year our school chooses a cause and any money we raise goes to it).

I would love if my school sold:
- Gum (orbit specifically)
- Mirror compacts
- Lip Smackers or chapstick
- Batteries
- Hair ties and headbands
- Binder paper
- Magazines
- Coin purses
- Body spray/mini bottles of perfume
- Travel size items like hairspray and brushes
- Crystal Light

Gum is a very good idea!
this site has some things [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
you can get personalized pens that say funny things [Link](Mouse over link to see full location). They're $1.19 a dozen, you would make $4.81 per box.
this is tough because my school store sells food and other things. Sorry, that's all i can think of.
