My friends gave me some feedback and I am going to add some additional choices to this post.
The first addition is for a tent that is super easy for just 1 person to put up by themselves.
The next addition is a colorful tent. A friend reminded me that it is a great idea to stand out from the other vendors!
A 10 x 10 tent provides ample space to showcase your products while offering protection from the elements like sun and rain, ensuring a comfortable shopping experience for your customers.

Having paper bags in various sizes is essential for vendors to cater to different customers needs and preferences. These bags are eco-friendly and I prefer the white or brown paper bag colors because I use stamps to personalize them.

Customizable rubber stamps are invaluable tools for vendors at vending events. These stamps allow you to effortlessly add a personal touch to your paper bags, enhancing your brand identity and creating a memorable shopping experience for customers.
Having ribbon at your table adds a delightful touch when wrapping up your cozy blankets or adding a charming accent to their shopping bags.
Utilizing waterproof, large, rectangular storage and carry bags is a game-changer for vendors and vending days These bags offered unparalleled convenience and functionality, making it a breeze to transport and organize your products. Their spacious interior provides ample room to store a wide variety of items, from blankets to crafts, ensuring that everything you need for your vending events is neatly packed and protected from elements. The waterproof feature offers added peace of mind, safeguarding your merchandise against all the elements. This rectangular design makes it easy to stack and store at home!
Marking all your items with price tags is essential for a successful vending event, as it provides transparency and clarity for customers while streamlining the purchasing process For those on a budget, plain white tags with a simple string attachment offer a cost-effective solution that's easy to write on and attach to merchandise.
On the other hand, if you have a bit more flexibility in your budget, investing in customizable tags with your logo adds a professional and branded touch to your products.
Having an insulated cooler by your side during vending days ia a must-have for staying refreshed and energized throughout the long hours. As the temperatures rise it's crucial to keep plenty of cold drinks on hand, especially water to keep hydrated under the summer sun.
In addition to drinks, stocking up on healthy snacks is essential for sustaining your energy level throughout the day. You can also purchase food from other vendors, if it is a farmers market, and having a place to keep the food fresh is vital.
Having an Insulated Water Bottle is a game-changer for vendors, offering year-round comfort for hydration, regardless of the weather. During the summer, ice-cold water, and during the winter, hot coffee!
