This is really a new way to catch air time.
A guy with a very interesting business plan is making thousands by selling jars of “fresh air” to people in China for £80 each. He has sold over 180 since the business began a few weeks ago.
27-year-old Leo De Watts sells air from the British Countryside, shipping them to polluted cities Shanghai and Beijing where the wealthy elites enjoy a quick deep breath of it. Others are reportedly buying the jars purely for their novelty value.
This is not just your average country air though, the jars are filled in Somerset, Wales and Dorset, where De Watts notes that each air has different qualities.
Watts has also released a “Chinese New Year special” of 15 jars, which can all be yours for £888.
He’s really thought this through – as 8 is a lucky number in China, we can only expect the business to boom.
