Title: I know I am not the only one
Post by: Grid Blader on September 28, 2006, 05:27:29 PM

When childeren have something to sell, they dont sell to there parents first.  They run to my house.  I guess it is the big sign that reads "sucker lives here".  I have bought more then my fair share.  I can not be the only one out there?  Can I?  Tell me what the kids get you to buy?  I am a sucker for the raffles.

Way back in the days of high school marching band we went from door to door selling Beef and Cheese.  Yeap.  Like, smoked sausage and novelty cheeses and the sort.  And believe it or not, I was a pretty cute kid (I know, I dunno what happaned either ;)  ) with dimples to boot, so I could flash those bad boys, and sure enough, I'd be amongst the top sellers.

I suggest installing a moat with crocodiles.  Keeps not only the sales-people away, but also evangelists, mailmen, and those crocodiles will make quick work of the neighbors' dog that keeps doing its' business in your yard.

Keep the kids away...I can't seem to ever say no. I spend a small fortune just with my nieces...oh then you get those girl scout cookies...yikes.

I guess I remember when I was a kid selling toffee covered peanuts to earn my way to camp...ugh.

Now adays, I wonder what they are selling for?
