    Know your looking for idea's but the big dont's are definitely football jerseys,jumpers and having a gaming tournament in the school ;)

    I know some lads in our school made a bit off a penalty shoot out competition? Washing cars is always a good one too especially if you get all the teachers to pay you, try and brainstorm idea's they dont even have to be that unique. I was at the finals last year as a spectator and I thought some of the companys that managed to get there were a bit of a joke to be honest :pac:

    Also do any of your group have any unique skills, like being able to play guitar? If you managed to get a group of people to take up music lessons during school time im sure you could make a bit off that :)

    I dont want to put you down but we came up with a very good unique idea in our mini-company if i do say so myself :P And the judges didn't like our product because they thought it would just be a fad and went with a board game mini-company instead.

    And we put an unreal amount of effort into it, sold 1600 of our products and made a nice profit of about 800-900 euro and they didn't put us through, we were pissed!! :L Not trying to put you down or anything but honestly i think car washing would be a very good idea, dead easy to do, cheap to setup and your guaranteed some sort of market if you do it properly :)

    I'd really recommend an app. If you have anyone anyway techy in your group you can make quite a lot, and still continue to make money after the year has finished.
