Selecting From the Slew of Fireworks Stores in WI
By Doug T. Davis

A mutual theme of fireworks shops all over Wisconsin is pricing. A majority may offer the "BOGO" pricing structure, in which their base prices are retained at retail cost, but throw in a free item when you check out. The reason that so many retailers have hopped on the BOGO bandwagon in past years is economics 101. Most stores are struggling with the economic downturns. Consumers like you and I have cut back on everything from how often we buy fireworks, to the quality of firework items we buy and where we buy them from.

If a retail fireworks store doesn't offer a buy-one-get-one offer, they usually will have the fireworks marked at 1/2 of what other stores do. Buy-one-get-one is not a gimmick, it's just an alternative way to offer a fun shopping experience with the idea that "

Many shoppers may associate firework shops as being dirty, non-pleasant place to shop. This may be so for a variety of smaller stores, but the bigger retail stores will offer higher caliber products with the use of air conditioning and controlled air quality to reduce duds, or fireworks that tarnished due to storing conditions.

A lot of the national chains, like Phantom Fireworks, carry generic brands, or their own brands profit more. They have their own assets in over-seas and often relabel fireworks using their own branding. This may make purchasing fireworks more distracting for true firework enthusiasts because you cannot go to any fireworks business to get a particular item or brand, and remembering a product by its performance may be difficult. The performance of these brands may also be inconsistent. Quality control by well-known brands like Red Rhino and Black Cat Fireworks is very high and purchasing generics, or repackaged products cannot assure an annual fireworks shopper assurance in the product they are purchasing unless they frequent to the same store every year.
