Would you buy ready made shaloch manos from someone to make your life easier, not home baked stuff, just bought things and set up nicely. I'm thinking of doing this and wondering if there would be a need for it. I'm in the Lakewood area if that makes a difference

The only case I'd buy a ready made up and wrapped mishloach manot would be if for some reason it was extremely necessary for me to give a very aesthetically perfect looking mishloach manot to make some impression or whatever, because I'm no good at doing that myself, but I can't really think of a reason why I would have such a case.
In general, it's not worth the extra money paying you for your time.
So no I wouldn't.
(I don't live in Lakewood)

I wouldn’t, because I enjoy making them as do my kids
If I needed something nice and standard pre-made for a couple people (my MM are always nice but very creative with our theme), I’d just run to the store to pick some up. Usually all the grocery/chocolate stores sell, no?

I've done PC pops or pretzels etc when I was very post-birth or pre birth.
Prob not random bought stuff- I can just do that myself.
There are tons of options already.

Many shops sell prepackaged options. Are you thinking of something similar, or would yours be unique in some way?

This. But the shops prices are unaffordable. Would yours be a more affordable option?

I live in Lakewood and would buy depending on the price. It also would have to be nice or yummy or special, not just some random nosh in a basket.

I mostly only buy ready made. The ones I make from scratch go to a very select few people. I don’t enjoy it.

In Los Angeles there is a lady that makes shaloch manors for people but it’s very fancy and expensive

I'd buy if it were reasonably priced, $7-8 per shalach manos. I'd buy 30. Each year, its such a pressure to make something that presents nicely. Its just not my talent. And, more and more, my neighbors give out store bought things, not homemade anymore. The cheap ones at PCPops and those type of things are alway sold out first. I think there's a market for it. But has to be nice, not wafers in a wicker basket...

Definitely a market for it under $6 to 10 wrapped nicely would be a dream.
It’s end up costing more all the packaging and extras so I’d definitely easier especially when Purim is so busy

If you are very creative and offer to make personalized mishloach manot, according to a requested theme, there might be a demad for that, for people who like to do costume themes and matching mishloach manot but can't think what to put in.
