We sold cases of oranges and other citrus fruit. We took pre-orders then had to deliver it. The fruit was really good so it was not too bad.

we sold grapefruits with the orchestra. I'd save up a few nights of babysitting money and just donate that instead.

I just couldn't imagine going to someone's door and saying, "Would you like to buy some of my tantalizing citrus products? Are you sure?"

Girl scout cookies, those sell themselves!

Minty, I'm a slave to the frozen bucket of cookie dough! I have accepted the Tasty Batters as my copilot on the journey of life. But you can't just buy it on your own, and the dealer who sells to me is graduating this summer and I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M GOING TO DO. I might have to start my own fundraiser and just buy all the dough myself, a la Ken's mom.

Shampoo? That is pretty bizarre. When I was in band we sold candy, and for a time, also fruitcake. That was a pretty hard sell.

A good thing the kids sell these days is tubs of cookie dough. You can just make a couple cookies at a time, or a lot, or you can eat it raw. Mmmmm.

I will not make my child sell anything door to door. I am philosophically against the practice. I feel that it is very wrong, rude, and makes your neighbors dislike you.

Did you ever have to sell candy for your school band? Well, that would have been a DREAM assignment for me.
