I ran an underground candy reselling business back in 7th & 8th grade. This was in the late 80's. I would get my mom to by me bulk boxes of Nerds, Now & Laters, Candy Bars etc. from Smart & Final (bulk store). I'd pay $20 for a box and probably double my profit per box. I was selling a box and a half a week, so I was making $40-$50 profit a week. I ran that shit out of my backpack and it only ended because I got greedy. I knew better but I started selling during class and I got busted by my social studies teacher. I should have just kept it to in between classes and lunch. I probably could have taken it up to $100 a week profit if I had just kept it more on the down low. It was fun being the "candy man" and I learned a little about running a business. The cash was nice too.
 
In elementary school I used to make and sell these things:

as well as other variations (frog, ladybug, dragonfly, etc).

I already made like and infinity of those at scout camp.
 
When I was 14 I setup my own 'business'. I had about 500 Playstation 2 games, compilied a list, made a business card and handed it out saying I will burn them any game for 5$, and I just remembered, before this, I used to sell people whatever 10 music/album they wanted for $5 also, all from Napster and whatever p2p service was out back in the day... fucking nostalgia

This later progressed into selling $200 iTune gift cards for $50 ($50 profit) in High School, and various other gift cards.
 
Just 1 or 2 guys were selling drugs? Come on, you guys were studying in schools or monasteries?

In my school dope was everywere and someone had to deliver the goods...
 
Used to sell Icons and Ringtones to classmates back in the day... I think it was nokiaicons.com - Could have made a killing but it never accepted credit/debit cards.
 
Moonshine all the way, used to have 2-3 gallon in my school locker all tw time.

I imported & sold MP3 players when I was in year 11/12. Imported from China for ~$5 each and resold from anywhere between $30-$50. Coaxing other students to sell for me and they got a % of the sale was pretty fun.
 
Yep.

High School - cigs, booze, a bit of pot, and a fuck ton of burned music back when cd burners were fairly new and everyone still had a dial up connection.

Ahh how I miss those days sometimes.
 
POGS! I would practice my slamming technique for hours per day, then go play someone 'for keeps' rape their pogs and sell them back to other kids... business was good.
 
Started sellin Walgreens hand rolled cigars and passed them off as Cubans at 5 to $10 a pop. That escalated into beer and cigs which I pleed the fifth as to the origins
 
You guys ever make spitball guns out of mechanical pencils? Like these

I made a bunch of those in 3rd grade and sold them during lunch time. Soon after, kids started getting suspended for having them. Goddamn school regulations forced me out of business.

Then pencil fighting got big in 6th grade. I had my mom buy me a ton of those fat pencils and I'd pump those before school. Then pencil fighting got banned too. Then I became a libertarian.
