August 27, 201511 yr My kids' grade school used to have a walk-a-thon every year where each kid was asked to seek sponsors and raise $75. I wrote that check every year. It's hard enough selling items for a fundraiser but when you walk up to a door empty handed and try to solicit money, it's nearly impossible! Kudos to this school!
August 27, 201511 yr NDA probably still has their fruit sale. I always suggested to just write a check for the profit on the fruit that my daughter had to sell as well as the same fruit that I had to help box. No go.
August 27, 201511 yr It gets old. Then where there are causes we all really want to give to we can be out of juice.

Did Clyde say fruit sale, damn I had cleared that from my memory. I didn't mind working the fruit sale, too much. You can meet some real interesting people there while your slinging fruit around....right Clizzy!
August 27, 201511 yr Did Clyde say fruit sale, damn I had cleared that from my memory. Sorry, brother. I should have been more sensitive.

August 27, 201511 yr I always bought fruit from my nieces when they were at NDA! Much better idea than those lousy candy bars or discount cards to restaurants that I never used!
August 27, 201511 yr That's right. Me and DoubleDeuce working side-by-side one night. So it was a low hanging fruit sale! :banana:
August 28, 201511 yr I actually used to use those restaurant coupon cards. But usually all that other stuff is junk and overpriced.
August 28, 201511 yr My brother in law was asked to sign a waiver for his daughter to walk route 8 and pick up trash. Participation was 100% mandatory. He told them it was nuts to have kids walk that highway to pick up trash. Wrote a check for $100 and said "She is participating with cash".
August 28, 201511 yr If a kid knocks on our door we buy from him. Good lesson for the child. By the way, I love those pizza kits that come around once in a while.
