It is that dreaded time of year again

You! Yes you! can single-handedly save your school from financial Armageddon. You little Mr. Salesman, here is your Cherrydale Farms “Hugs and Kisses” catalog for you to pimp such items as a ceramic cow wearing a tutu for $10, a 5oz. chocolate Santa’s tool kit for $7.50. What? You say that your neighborhood has 24 kids all with the same catalog? Not a problem! Your parents have friends and they would love to buy a 9oz bottle of cucumber melon foot lotion for $6 or an 8oz Teddy Bear tin of peanut brittle for $13.50. Your parents wont mind taking that catalog and pushing our overpriced stuff to their co workers and friends who might not have kids of their own trying to sell our stuff :yay: It’s for charity for pizz sakes. Hell even try those Grandparents who live in another state! They can never refuse you if you use the pouty lip thing and puppy dog eyes.

As a bonus if you can manage to find some schmucks to buy 30 items you, YES YOU will get a limo ride to HONG KONG Buffet for the $6.95 lunch buffet ! 50 items and you will be invited to get in our money box and keep all the money you can catch as it floats by! Maybe even FIVE DOLLARS! :faint: If you can find one guilt ridden family member to buy $60 worth of our junk THEY GET FREE SHIPPING!

Remember, if you don’t sell 10 items you will not get a ticket to the SUPER REWARDS PARTY WOOOOOOOO. Less than 10 and you will be herded to a classroom with the rest of the losers who didn’t sell our stuff while the rest of your friends with real entrepreneurial skills go to the PARTY!

nah. I just picked up 2 bottles, and they were $8 each :ohwell:
Stock up man! This is your chance!

How about a rawhide dog house with 4 edible treats inside for the low, low price of $9.50?

Pete, don't forget me when Boy starts peddling Sally Foster gift wrap. I bought from another forum member last year and put her daughter in the party zone on my order alone. :yay:

Nope just heavyweight gift wrap for $7 bucks a roll :ohwell:

I did it the first couple times, the last time I told him to just forget it I wasn't going to buy $50 worth of crap so he could go eat pizza and get a sour candy straw. then I found out he got shuffled down to a classroom for those who did not hock 10 items. I was going to go get him and take him to lunch with dad but I didn't catch the day right.

No fundraiser's in this household. :banana: The youngest's school doesn't do fundraiser's and we've already bought our way out of volunteer hours and fundraiser's this year for our oldest. :yay: I'm sure I'll probably buy some stuff here and there, but it's soooooo nice not feeling the pressure.

My husband neglected to do the buy out with the girl's extra curricular activity so now I'm stuck selling pizza and pasta kits:banghead:

Did you know Crispy's husband secretly wants to be a podiatrist? :jet:

:roflmao:
Good for him :yay: I on the otherhand would probably fondle Teri Clark's feet and maybe Jennifer Annistons feet. Beyond that I have to pass. :dead:
