Slipper Baskets

I'm not sure if I will have these due to cost. How much did slipper baskets cost everyone?

Re: Slipper Baskets

I think it depends on how good of a deal you get on the slippers-I got killed, spent over $3.00 per slipper set, so I spent over $150 just for the slippers. I still have to get bags and tags for them (the basket was cheap-around $10 at Michael's). Many other people did much better on price, I know ChristineAEID posted something the other day with a link to her Ebay vendor-much better prices!

Re: Slipper Baskets

I found them for 1.00 a slipper. So the slippers cost me 50.00 and with the tool and basket about 60.00

Re: Slipper Baskets

I got slippers from dollardays.com for less than $1 per set, but you do have to buy in bulk. It still wound up being a good deal. I bet you can get slippers off of ebay for around $1 each.

Re: Slipper Baskets

I bought 50 pairs in all sizes from 5 - 10 alternating in white and gold for $88 inclding shipping. I think they were about $1.50 each.

I bought 50 white organza bags, I believe they were about $25 including shipping.

and finally....

I bought the wicker basket that fits about 40 pairs from Walmart for $3.99

Re: Slipper Baskets

I found a great pair of slippers, they are really nice and not cheapy looking either...I paid .99 for each plus tax. I have them in 2 big bags and will get the basket for under ten bucks. I am sure with tool or decorations it will still be under another ten. Just make sure you get the slippers cheap no more than .99 each and you will be good. We are doing slippers for the ladies and a cigar bar for the men!
