Follow on Google News | Where million dollar ideas come from?In the history of multi-million dollar business ideas, you will be hard-pressed to find one that includes the words "redneck" and "wine glass", especially in the same idea.
By: Sam Kofman The inventor of the redneck wine glasses goes by the name of Okie Morris. Not too long ago, while visiting a neighborhood thrift store, she spotted a mason jar in one section and glass candlestick holder in other part of the store and thought of putting the two items together and call it a "redneck" wine glass. The aforementioned Carson Home Accents came across the invention and signed a manufacturing arrangement with Okie Morris. It costs about $6.50 to make, and sells for about $15.00 a glass. In less than a year, the product has had about $5 million dollars in sales. To say it has been a success would be an underestimation.The redneck themed wine glass was an Amazon bestseller for glassware and drinkware products. Amazon customer reviews give it a 4 out of a 5 star rating. With these statistics, it has become something of a spectacle over the past several months, and has received national media coverage.
