Flipping Sticky Notes from Penny Deals
Post-it brand and store-brand sticky notes flip on Amazon FBA in bulk packs. Post-it brand commands a premium due to the superior adhesive that repositions cleanly. Bundle 10-15 pads together to reach a price point that justifies FBA fees and attracts office supply buyers in bulk.
Why Sticky Notes Are Worth Flipping
Sticky Notes show up regularly in dollar store penny bins as inventory cycles out and new products rotate in. When you source at the penny price — literally $0.01 — almost any working unit sold at market rate is pure profit. The average flipper in this category earns $4-$9 per unit after marketplace fees and shipping.
Demand for sticky notes stays consistent because buyers search for these products regardless of season, and penny-deal sourcing lets you undercut retail pricing while still earning strong margins. The key is getting the penny list early and reaching stores before other flippers do.
