Last night we had a PTA meeting, we are considering a fundraiser in which you sell gift cards and the school gets to keep 2%-15% (depending on the store)
We decided to try it, being it comes at NO COST to us... So I suggested that we announce it and explain it to the parents at the Christmas program, December 4th...
One woman thought it was too late to get a good Christmas sale...
TOO LATE, on December 4th...
She then announced that all, yea you heard me, ALL her christmas shopping is done AND wrapped!!!!
I am pretty sure she must be from outer space... I haven't even figured out what I am getting anyone yet!
What a snob...
Though I realize that your post is less about the "cards" then the "snob". We do the cards at my son's school all year round and it's highly successful. In fact they no longer do chocolate fund raisers and such because these cards bring in so much. Personally I get them and I use them (groceries and such) they're great!
ReplyDeleteOh the fundraiser has been great, we are doing it year round as well, it was all about the snob. Or maybe my jealousy that she was done with her Christmas shopping...
