I like it when my child's school fundraising program includes a catalog filled with a large selection of items. If a fundraiser only has a few items for sale I sometimes have a difficult time finding a product I will actually use. I don't like to waste my money on something I won't use.

I like it when my child's school fundraising program includes a catalog filled with a large selection of items. If a fundraiser only has a few items for sale I sometimes have a difficult time finding a product I will actually use. I don't like to waste my money on something I won't use. I don't like the fundraisers that offer a cheesecake for the outrageous price of 25.00 for a 6 or 8 inch cake. I think that is too much and the cakes usually are not really worth the cost.

My favorite fundraising items are usually sold around October. That's when the wrapping paper and greeting card assortment packs are for sale. Wrapping paper, or those cute little gift bag packs,Raising Funds and Money for Schools Articles are something I can always use. Whether I put holiday gifts in them for my family or wrap gifts for my employees, I need lots of gift wrap in December. And the wrapping paper i get is usually a nice thick quality paper and , of course, there are generally lots of pattern choices. So I am always sure to find a design that I really like.

One year I bought a cute little cow creamer and sugar bowl set. I just thought it was such a whimsical addition to my morning coffee ruutine and it is something that makes me smile every day when I see it. So when you see that school fundraising catalog being passed around, take a look at it. You might just find something to buy that you will really enjoy.
