What Affiliate Links Mean for Readers

Some product links may earn Party Whammy a commission, but recommendations are chosen for usefulness first.

01No extra cost to youIf you buy through an affiliate link, the retailer may pay a commission without changing your price.
02Advice comes firstProducts appear because they fit the guide, not because a commission exists.
03Free options still matterWhen a DIY, dollar-store, or no-buy option works better, the guide should say so.
How Links Work

Affiliate links can appear in supply lists, product mentions, and practical recommendations inside guides.

Supply lists

Party supply links may be affiliate links when a retailer program is available.

Product mentions

Specific product links may earn a commission if the item fits the advice.

Internal links

Links between Party Whammy guides are not affiliate links.

Some links on Party Whammy are affiliate links. If you buy through one of those links, the retailer may pay Party Whammy a small commission at no extra cost to you.

Guides start with the advice, not the commission. Products appear when they help a real host solve a real party problem. Many good party solutions use supplies you already own, dollar-store basics, printables, or no purchase at all.

What This Means for Readers

Affiliate links help support the site, but they do not decide the recommendation. If a free, cheaper, or simpler option is better, the guide should say so. Questions about any link can go through the contact page.
