Thanks for the additional info.! Yeah, the diesel prices gotta be hurting the midway operators. Local news here (Fresno) interviewed the operator at the Porterville Fair (Butler Amusements) and he indicated that they just have to “eat” the extra fuel costs since they are under contract months in advance. Diesel is used for generators to run the rides as well as for the trucks to move them to the new fair/site.
What do you sell? Kettlecorn? Souvenirs?
We have two different operations. My wife and I run Big Kahuna Incense. We sell incense, oils, tye dye and jewelry and rock and roll crap. Our other business is America’s Smallest Travelling Museum featuring unique specimens for public viewing. This year we are featuring Zack and Mack, America’s favorite two-headed wonder.
