That would be overkill. $17 on Amazon Limited-time deal: SMAYDA Electric Air Balloon Pump, Portable Dual Nozzle Electric Balloon Inflator/Blower for Party Decoration - 110V 600W [Rose Red] https://a.co/d/23ZRmFL


Except that you can use the air compressor for other things instead of a single use garbage balloon pump.


I mean, I’ve never needed an air compressor but I’ve used the garbage balloon pump several times a year for three years, plus loaned it out to others.

I also can’t imagine having to hold a balloon onto an air compressor while turning it on and off.

What's even worse is that balloons often fly away and get stuck in trees. At best, it's littering and at worst it kills wildlife.

I bought a $20 balloon inflator. It's loud but fast. It's harder to tie them closed fast. These were not helium balloons obviously but put together to make columns.

I bought 100 blown up balloons from Safeway - I bet other big grocery stores do it too. They corralled them in two huge plastic bags that I carried three blocks home. I decided one year my DD would enjoy waking on her birthday to a room full of balloons, so I did it. It was nuts, and she loved it. Would have been easier if I had a car, but whatever.

If you want to blow up a bunch of balloons for your child's birthday, what is the easiest way to achieve this? I'm talking about at least 100.
