Contestant's Case to Win

This is based on the number of votes received and does not reflect the quality of the business.
OnTray, a mom invented product, is the only container that easily attaches to the handlebar of the shopping cart, facing the child in the seat part of the cart, allowing you to place your child's favorite snack in it, encouraging their independence and freeing up our hands to shop! Ontray became available through my web site, www.ontray2go.com, June 1, 2007. Since our launch, OnTray is available throughout the world on over 30 online stores, and handful of brick and mortar stores, and many top grocery chains such as Meijer’s and Lunds & Byerly's! OnTray was even selected to be in the 2008 "Everyone Wins at the Oscars" gift bags.

I entered OnTray into the Recession Busters category because, with OnTray's low SRP and constant wholesale cost (I have not highbred my cost) in fact it's a tiered level based on quantity, I am constantly contacted by retailers wanting to carry OnTray. I'm excited to be a part of this fantastic contest and among what I'm sure will be a very prestigious group!
