I made $800 (really $950)

[TimJing]

in two months just by selling candy at my school.

I finally deposited my candy sale earnings into my savings account today.

Here are the final numbers:

Started with $10 worth of skittles.
Doubled that, doubled that, doubled that... until I got to about $300. Used the $300 in candy sales and a hundred my dad gave me for my report card to invest in:

$412 worth of candy, which bought me 954 pieces of candy.

I have roughly 40 pieces left, out of that original 954 I had a month ago, which will all finish selling tomorrow.

This leaves me with... $954, minus $150 for various expenses, is a total of $800 PURE PROFIT off of selling candy bought at Sam's Club out of a Fundraising box.

Damn, I feel good about this. You other highschoolers... I offer this word of advice: If you fundraise, and use a box that says "fundraiser", KEEP THE BOX. BUY CHEAP CANDY. RESELL TO YOUR PEERS AND MAKE A KILLING. it works.

I sold Snickers, Milky Way, Three Musketeers, Peanut MMs, MMs, Dark Chocolate Peanut MMs, Peanut Butter MMs, Reese's Pieces, Reese's, Kit Kats, Sour Punch Straws, Tropical/Wild Berry/Sour/Regular Skittles, Tropical/baja California/regular Starburst, and I think that's it.

My school district says "fuck you" to solicitors, so I say "fuck you" to you and your sane school district.

[Sqthreer!]

Daaaaaaamn.

I remember selling shit for cub scouts. I hated it because I sucked at talking to people. There was this one woman eating a piece of bread smothered in mayo who told me rather harshly that there was no soliciting in the area.

But good job :O

That's a really strange thought. What the hell.

Also, the candy wasn't exactly legal to sell at school, it's just, nobody important noticed. The teachers who I told (and they all knew something fishy was up) were either proud of me or very encouraging.
