The hyper-specialist shops of Berlin
I imagine the margins for balloon shops incredibly good.

They keep most of their inventory uninflated so storage requirements are not that big and the designs keep a long time, and for non-specialists, it's generally not worth keeping bottled Helium around, so it's a pretty decent business I suppose.

I buy my inflated balloons at the "dollar store", which is a good deal since they are 3.99 or more at the grocery store.

Are you suggesting the prices are inflated?
