[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 199377, member: 3907"] Many years ago, husband spoke to the coordinator for difficult child's school sales. He would ask, "If I buy this $20 giftwrap/chocolate/whatever, how much does the school get?" When he heard the answer ($5 out of every 20), he said, "Well, how about if I donate $20 to the WhateverItIs Fund, and I skip buying the product?" The school got the equivalent to $100 worth of sales, husband was out of pocket $20, and we didn't have any extra stuff that we didn't need. Now that Little easy child's getting to the age where school fund raisers will be coming up, I think we'll handle them the same way too. [/QUOTE]
