Our first fundraiser

On Monday November 29^th, 2010, we had organized to do our first fund raiser for our class. Basically our objective was to raise money for our Christmas party. The product we decided to sell was McDonalds. We believed that everyone wanted McDonald’s but had no way of getting there. So what we did was, we bought 70 JR Chicken Sandwiches and 50 double cheese burgers and sold them for $3 a piece making approximately a $1.25 on top of each burger. At first we though the price was a bit too high and we were concerned if anyone would buy it. But boy were we wrong. We had line ups that were begging to sell them it. It was insane. It was like we struck a gold mine. Everyone wanted a burger and everyone was willing to do anything for it. Me and Jordan needed up doing two trips to Two different McDonalds’ to get the amount of burgers needed. At the end of the day, we were quite successful. For only selling 120 burgers, we made a profit of $75.00 which was nothing we expected. If we ever get a second opportunity to do this again, by all means I am willing to do it. If I know that the money is going towards a good cause and that we are not being selfish on where it’s going, then I would love to jump towards that opportunity.
