Graduation Party Decorations, Congrats Grad Balloons for 2023 Graduation Party Supplies,12 pcs Class Blue Balloons, 17 Inch

Exactly as described

wife: Ordered these for an upcoming event because Im planning ahead. So obviously have not used them yet. What I can say though is that they look real nice. Looks easy enough to inflate and tie ribbon/string on the balloons. I like that it came with it already, that makes it easier.

These graduation balloons showed up just in time for planning graduation festivities for the grandkids’ graduation in a couple of months. At less than a buck a balloon, the price is hard to beat. The helium to fill them will cost more than the balloons. This blue-black-white combination matches their school’s colors perfectly! Happy with this purchase.

These will look great as a centerpiece or as a room accent for a graduation party. The writing is clear and not fuzzy, and the opening is easily accessible for filling with air or helium.

These balloons were perfect for my daughters senior night.

My daughter is graduating this year and these are just what I needed. Great balloons, easy to inflate, and look cool.

2023-02-25. 17 Foil Balloons - 2023 Graduation (Blue). Previously I ordered a party decoration kit that was pretty comprehensive and included just about everything you could think of, a large wall banner (backdrop), tablecloth, balloons, tape, balloon ribbons, balloon adhesive, cake topper, and cupcake toppers. But what it was missing were these larger foil balloons so I decided to give these a try since it matched my color theme. These foil balloons are nice and large (comparable) to what you would find at brick and mortar retail outlets and come in a pack of 12. Similar to the other kit I ordered, it also comes with a couple of rolls of ribbon, some glue points (to stick these to each other) and an inflating straw. I found that the sticky dots (glue points) were pretty good, but I had only inflated these with air and when I had put them up with the other balloons, it just didnt seem right. In the end, I deemed that these are best used as freestanding balloons. I purchased a small helium tank and filled the rest of the foil balloons with them. I then weighted them down and let them float freestanding.... much better... These balloons retail for $11.00 or 92 cents apiece, and when you consider the cost of purchasing a helium tank which will run you about $50 (enough to fill about 27 balloons (17), the cost goes way up to about $2.25 apiece. The foil balloons themselves are of the same quality as you get with brick and mortar purchases and the helium lasted about 2 weeks. I get that foil balloons are more expensive than their rubber and latex counterparts, but Im not sure they should be marked up this much; after all, how can the retail stores sell them for $1.25 apiece if the cost of both the balloon and helium are this expensive. In the end, if youre looking for helium filled foil balloons, I think its much more economical to just go and purchase them pre-filled. FYI: 17 foil balloons use up about 0.4 cu ft of helium, so you can do the math yourself to see how much it would cost you to fill these up yourself. Overall, Im still giving these balloons full marks. Theyre of the same quality as you get at the retail stores and it would not be a fair assessment to punish this review because of the much higher costs associated with filling them up with helium.

Worked perfectly for our Grad party

These balloons are easy to inflate with the included straw (and deflate too). And if you arent planning on filling with helium, there are two loops on top for a string to go through and hang from. The loops arent shown in the product photos or description, so they were a nice surprise. So they can be displayed in three ways: 1) filled with helium and tied to something with the included ribbon, 2) filled with air and stuck to a wall with the included glue posts, or 3) filled with air and strung along a line between two posts, lamps, etc. Cant wait to use them for the upcoming graduation season.

Very nice shiny balloons. Perfect decor for a graduation party. Comes in all the school colors. Great value for the price.
