Those of you who just had or have DC's 1st birthday coming up

Did you order balloons from Party City or did you buy a helium tank? Not sure what to do.

I was only allowed to get 6 helium balloons at Party City (My party was last week) ...I blew up the rest myself.

It was in June so I don't think they had limits then, but we bought a tank and did it ourselves. I ordered them through birthdayexpress.com I was only tying a few balloons to fence posts so it didn't take very long.

Neither... I had balloons delivered from
Balloons N More, they were awesome!
They set up a bunch of different Sesame balloons and these full size elmo and big bird balloons that are 3-d, I forget what they're called but when you walk by them they move like they're walking, too cute!

I did Party City - max was 12. My friend just tried to get balloons there but they weren't selling ANY.

We rented a helium tank. It was easier and cheaper. I bought all the balloons on ebay.

We do the helium tanks. We usually wind up getting at least one special balloon from the kit, so the tank gives me the option of filling up as many as I want. It's also a lot easier to transport a tank and a bag of balloons than filled balloons!!! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

I bought 2 Helium tank kits from BJ's. They were $19.99 each and came with 50 balloons. I made my DH fill them the morning of her Birthday party. I had 8 Mylar balloons filled up by a party store where I live and picked them up the day before.

We bought 10lhellium balloons from this dollar tree store we were in Lancaster last year and then when it was time for DS's birthday party we went to this store called Party Fair and they blew up the balloons for us, Plus this big singing balloon and then we ended up buying this big #1 balloon with winnie the pooh on it, since that was his theme...

I bought the ballons at Party City but since the store is a little out of the way for me I later bought a helium tank and blew them up myself that day.
