Cookie Sale Review...


Today we held our cookie sale which was quite successful. We doubted we would be able to sell many as another class was raising money for the S.P.C.A cupcake day. To make matters worse they were in the class next to where we were selling our cookies. Our prices were cheap enough but perhaps too cheap. We sold one for 50c and six for $2. The packs didn’t really give us much profit as they were getting two free cookies. We sold them at morning tea and lunch. At morning tea the cookies did extremely well and would have sold out if we didn’t bring them inside to save some for lunchtime. At lunch the cookies sold out after around five minutes. We raised $70 which we thought was great. It was a brilliant way to donate money for those in need and we had a great time making them. We are now thinking of of running another cookie sale but might not have the six packs for $2 instead it would be the normal price of $3 for a bag of six. Everyone said they loved our cookies and it is great it’s going to a good charity. Overall, they were so fun to make and we spent around three hours making and wrapping cookies. It would be great to do this again with no competition and we all enjoyed it. All in all it was well worth doing!!! We have had many requests for another cookie sale, and some people even said they were the best cookies ever. One of our customers even brought over twelve cookies!!! We are donating our $70 to the Pakistan Emergency Appeal
