💰$300/Day Flipping Products on Temu
One outdoor patio set turned into a $9K/month side hustle.
Today’s side hustle is one I heard about from my firefighter friend.
He and his wife are always looking for ways to make a little extra cash on the side—and this hustle makes them $300 a day on average.
It honestly surprised me.
It’s simple, straightforward, and something anyone can do. And it all centers around the deal site Temu.com.

Here’s how it started:
They ordered a patio furniture set from Temu. The quality was way better than expected—basically the same as what you'd find at Target or Walmart.

But before they even used it, they decided they wanted the bigger version.
So they listed the smaller set—brand new—on Facebook Marketplace for the same price they paid on Temu.
Within a few hours, they had over 50 people trying to buy it.
They ended up selling it for a couple hundred dollars more than what they paid.
💡 That’s when they realized they were onto something.
They ordered a few more of the same patio sets from Temu… and flipped each one for $250–$300 profit.
And it’s not just patio sets—they’ve since flipped raised garden beds, fire pits, egg chairs, and other gear that people are looking for locally.
The crazy part? They’re buying the exact same types of products sold at big-box stores—just directly from the manufacturers, at 50–80% off.
Now they’re flipping all kinds of non-branded Temu products—and making $300 a day doing it.
And its not just them. I found a bunch of other people on Reddit making money doing the same thing.
👉 Here’s how it works…
🏡 How They Flip Temu Items for Profit
The key is picking high-demand, high ticket products that people already want to buy.
🚨 DO NOT pick items where people expect a specific brand name. Avoid things like electronics, designer bags, or name-brand appliances.
Instead, look for generic, high-demand products like:
✅ Outdoor furniture – Patio sets, egg chairs, lounge chairs.
✅ Fire pits & heaters – Seasonal goldmine in fall & winter.
✅ Garden decor – Planters, string lights, trellises.
✅ Storage sheds & organizers – Huge demand for backyard storage.



💡 Pro Tip: Look at what places like Home Depot or Walmart sell a lot of, then search Temu for the same thing at a fraction of the price.
💵 The Exact Steps to Start This Temu Side Hustle
1️⃣ Find a Hot Product on Temu
Browse bestsellers & top-rated outdoor items.
Compare to Home Depot, Walmart, and Wayfair to see how much higher they sell for.
2️⃣ Buy 1-2 Items to Test Demand
Order a few to your house and list them before they arrive (use Temu’s pictures).
If they sell quickly, order more.

🚀 Why This Temu Side Hustle Works So Well
✅ No inventory risk – Buy small, scale up as you sell.
✅ Insane price differences – You’re just buying low & selling high.
✅ No brand name needed – The same manufacturers make these products for major retailers.
✅ People don’t want to deal with Temu – Which means they’re willing to pay more for the same item.
