Selling Machines

Through school we sell candy bars to raise money for books and stuff. We sell those World's Finest Chocolate bars (almond, krispy, caramel and milk chocolate)
We got 2 boxes at Open House before school even started. I asked Sam's Club if we could stand outside of their doors and sell them (we did this last year as well) and they said yes. So for the last 3 weekends we have been selling candy outside of Sam's.
Last weekend we sold 2 boxes (100 bars) in 1 hour!
This weekend I got 4 boxes to sell and my friend came out with us (and her 3 kids, 2 that go to Rural Hall) and we sold 5 boxes (250 candy bars) in less than 2 hours! So Kyle now has earned enough money to earn the Hummer Limo ride out to all you can eat lunch! He is so excited! And Jason was sweet enough to let us put all the money we earned towards Kyle so he can enjoy his last year at Rural Hall in style!
So I will be doing something very special for Jason.
Jason also earned the money needed to go to the Mega Event which is basically extra play time in the bounce arounds the day of Family Fun Night. But he gets out of class to do it.
So if you ever have to sell candy for you school, find your local Sam's and sell as people are walking out the exit.
Oh, also we earned almost $35 extra dollars from people donating money or buying a candy bar for the boys. Talk about spoiled!

Awww, what a sweetie Jason is! And good work selling! I wish we could do something simple like candy bars, we have a huge catalog fundraiser thing and it's the same every year... How much wrapping paper and candles can one family buy?!
