I ordered about 15 Mylar balloons for my child’s birthday from an online wholesale company. The balloons cost between 50 cents to about $1.70 each. Most of the balloons I ordered were oversized ocean-themed balloons (dolphin, shark, swordfish, mermaid, etc.)
I then bought a small helium tank to blow them up at home. You can also go to a party store and have them blow them up for 50 cents for the small ones and $1 for the large ones. If you have to store blow them up, that is about $1 for the small mylar balloons and $2.70 for the large ones. Much better than the $2-$3 for a small one and the $8-$10 for the large ones when you buy them all at the store.
Thanks for this tip, Laura H!
