Not literally split the condoms 

Buy a 12 pack and sell them as single items for double the price

surely if you split them they will be useless!?

Sorry Mark!

Could you and Adam wear name and age badges to help us senile people tell you apart?

I was fond of buying 'jaw breakers' and 'wham bars' at wholesale prices and capitalising on the growing playground market when the tuck shop was shutdown for health reasons.  You can easily mark up your pricing by at least a 100% on the RRP on the box- captive market economics at work I'm afraid.

I then found they by diversifying into fake IDs and copies of 'tapes'

you're 14 so you've go time on your hands and you like sailing, get down your local sailing club and rescue one/some of the boats rotting in the "fees not paid, going to be burnt pile".   We did up an Ent we got like this when I was 14, cost us nothing, we sanded it, varnished it (about £15 at the time for the varnish and sandpaper), wire wooled and painted the trailer (about another £15) and phoned round the sailors at the club to blag decent enough sails and a boom - sold the lot for £300 profit

if you get ambitous at this point then use the profit to buy another, then another and soon you'll have a really decent boat that's cost you very little and enabled you to do something pretty cool - putting old disused boats back into action

... even easier these days as you can use class assoc message boards to hunt for second hand bits and sell on what you've acheived... or ebay
