I really hate school fund raisers for kids.

Bump because I just remembered the salad dressing.

I don't know the life lesson in peddling low quality products for astronomical prices where the only party really gaining any significant profit or gain is neither the buyer nor the end seller.

I'd rather my kid mow yards, shovel snow, or deliver papers if they want to learn about work ethic and making money.

Most of the items I've seen sold door to door by kids in my neighborhood are food related or magazines. I sold Tom Watt crap for boy scouts back in the day but they dont do that anymore. (thank God)

My kids, 7, and 9, help the neighbors with their yards, mow, and shovel snow because they like to help out the community. They usually get paid in chocolate chip cookies or home made pretzels from said neighbors (and are fine with it). Sometimes my kids will get a few extra bucks in their allowances also for seeing something that needs to be done and doing it on their own.

I haven't bought them in a few years. I remember gorging on and entire box of thin mints once. It was awesome.

Eh? They taste surprisingly similar to Keebler grasshoppers. Now you can get your hands on a similar substitute anytime!

We had to sell magazines in high school to pay for prom tickets. I told them I wouldn't do it, and just payed cash for my ticket. No fucking way am I going to waste my time making money for some douchebag exploiting kids to make a buck. That shit is downright immoral.
