We've a business fair coming up soon. In this fair, we have to make our own 'mini-businesses' and represent them to some people. What we need to represent is a product that attracts a customer's attention, and might actually make him want to buy it. However, you cannot simply buy, let's say, a pair of shoes and present them; you need to add your own unique, attractive and unusual touches/ideas to the product (in this case, the shoe). A random example would be 'Flying shoes' (I know it's not possible, but they need similar, more-realistic, distinctive ideas).

Anyone got any ideas for a good product with the restrictions I mentioned?
I would really really appreciate it.

*Note: Please choose something simple and easy to do, with no food or much 'costs' involved. For example, don't go tell me to buy a Wii, or make pizzas etc. Also do remember illegal ideas are not allowed.

I have the same assignment, so what you are going to post here will benefit me as well. :)

Fur condoms.


People need condoms, and fur feels nice, so why not?

We had the same task from English class a few days ago, but we had to make a poster and present it as a commercial.

So we pasted some Chevy car springs on Nike shoes.

He said no food.

Not exactly, it sounds like certain food solutions, if creative enough, would work. But, I think Taco Bell beat us to the "Black" taco idea, and Brown seems sorta unappealing, as does Gray. Red and Green tacos (btw, Shadow, what's your religion again? You said you follow Muslim tradition?)!

Well, all sorts of food are not allowed.

Ya, but what does it have to do with this? :P

Red and Green is mostly synonymous with Christmas, a Christian holiday. Beats me, though, how many Christians are in the UAE.

Basically, Muslims are the most in the UAE.
There are plenty of Christians because of many Europeans and Americans in this country.
There are many many many Hindus as well!
There are few Jews, but they are very rare.
