Here's a list of our top five bestsellers over the last month. This is based on number of units sold. To keep constantly up to date with what is selling well, I recommend using the RSS feed for our site Top Twenty. This is updated regularly (at least once an hour) so it accurately reflects what is selling. And unlike on most sites, it uses realtime sales data not just what we want to push!
Bestsellers:
1. Addictaball.
It's a puzzle in a ball, and is horribly addictive (I own one). Comes in Small (£6.99) and Large (£11.99). Also known as Addict-A-Ball.
These are flowers that you put in the bottom of champagne glasses, and watch 'bloom' into a flower. They are edible so after you finish your bubbly you can scoff the booze-soaked flower.
We've been selling these for a while, the recent jump in popularity was because they were featured on This Morning (from 03:30). Holly thought they would be perfect for weddings, and we've sold more of the 2 jar pack than the singles, so I think people were listening! One jar is £9.99 and the two pack is £16.99.
Outdoor party season has arrived, and these are brilliant for nightime gatherings. A simple idea: a balloon with an LED light inside, they look wonderful when filled with helium. The mixed colour pack is most popular. £8.99 for 15.
4. Garlic Zoom
This was also in the same This Morning feature. It's a clever garlic cutting gadget, you zoom it along the countertop to chop. Now comes in XL for garlic-lovers and large families. Standard £7.99, XL £14.99
This has come back into stock after we sold out of the first load very quickly. Its a USB camera on a long bendable tube. It may look like an accident waiting to happen, but has many practical uses like investigating blocked drains (it's waterproof) and retrieving small metal items (it has a magnetic attachment). The overly paranoid can use it to peer round corners. £29.99
So the lesson here is, TV coverage drives lots of sales, and party/wedding season is upon us!
