jayne67 Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Hi Ladies just a quick word of wisedom for you. when you are buying helium balloons from anywhere make sure they are qualatex or anagram/amsan because these are the best quality helium balloons on the market so they keep the balloon inflated longer, cheaper balloons can go down alot quicker plus you can get more problems with them and I wouldnt want you to get the cheapest and them go down before your guest get to see your hard work. Plus bear in mind when you inflate them they need to be on the same day as your party if you are using latex the cheaper balloons usually last 12 hour and the better quality last up to 18 hours but I always aim for the least time and then you know they will still be up. Hope this helps, carla x Its always wise to inflate them to the correct size as well. Under inflated balloons, will not last as long either. The other way to make sure your balloons will fly longer is by using a product called hi-float. This extends the flying time of balloons by at least 4 times, and means that if you are doing your own decorations, you can inflate the balloons beforehand.
