Cookie Project
This is a review of the cookie project that I did recently as a fund raiser.
My Opinion on the cookie Project: “Yummy Cookies” and “No not a Headache”!
That and its was a BLAST! The two best things put together, one, Cookies, and Two, Friends.
Well the week started off on the wrong foot. I had plans to go to a Youth Encounter for church and didn’t get back until noon Sunday. That may not sound bad but it gets worse. First I went to the store to but cookie dough and started baking. Then Demi called to check in I told her what I was doing. Then she said, “Hay Matt, Did you get a hold of Sarah by chance?” Of course I did know I had to so that was bad.
Day one was ok, Sarah brought some M&M Cookies that sold like no tomorrow, and my sugar cookies were a big chocolate fountain hit. In the end we made about $35. I went home confident and made a few cookies because we still had a good amount.
Day Two was again ok though more kids brought money and we went dangerously low on cookies. The amount was so low that we split the last cookie between the four of us. I went home and made a TON of cookies, about 4-5 dozen.
Day Three, half way done, I then learned the fateful news that we couldn’t do the chocolate fountain. So we went in and almost every single kid asked where the fountain went. I went home a bit ticked because our sales dropped to China. We made, luckily, about $15-$20, only because Mrs. Cooper didn’t have snack window.
Day Four, I walked in and talked with Demi about the sales. We then talked with Lori and Sarah. We decided to ask Mrs. Jost if we could do the Fountain on Friday. Mrs. Jost, the most amazing teacher, then said we could. So, we walked in and set up the table and told Mrs. Cooper to announce that the fountain would be back on Friday. We sold a bit more cookies and earned a fair sum of money.
Day Five, The last day we were going to do the cookies, I walked in with about eighty more cookies. We set up and started getting the fountain ready. Then we started selling. The totals for the lunch periods were: $18 first period, $21.50 for the second, and $20.50 for the third. That made the grand total of the day to SIXTY BUCKS! I went home with amazement and relief.
The Grand total for the week was two hundred, twenty-eight dollars and zero cents. I believe that we set the bar high for the following groups. And that concludes the story of the week that Demi, Lori, Sarah, and I did cookies.
