About a year and a half ago my (then) 14yo son wanted some Among Us themed slides. They didn't exist so I decided it would be a fun project for us to get some made. He drew up some sketches, we got in touch with some factories via Alibaba, went back and forth on prototypes, and ended up with a bunch of slide sandals in our garage.

We worked together on setting up a simple Shopify website (https://sussysandals.com), set up an Instagram account, and learned about the basics of marketing, inventory management, and order fulfillment.

Surprising nobody, my 14yo lost interest pretty quickly. I've been putting minimal effort into trying to get rid of the sandals. They sell pretty well but I've got a full time job and the whole thing requires more attention than I'm willing to offer.

So, my question is: what should I do? We've sold through over half of the inventory and I'm to the point where I'm willing to eat the rest of the initial investment just to get some space back in my garage.

Are there places that buy small lots of unsold inventory? Are there specific charities I should consider? Is there some fun loophole I can shove the remaining sandals through?
