Pool Noodles. Most teams wait until a week or two before Ship Date (well, I guess now 'Bag Date') to try to get them for bumpers, and by then they're out of stock at most places. Two years ago, we needed families to donate noodles to our team since the ones we had to order wouldn't get in in time. Last year though, we bought a huge container full, which should give us enough for this coming season as well.
