As many of you know, Sarris is changing their candy bar fundraising program. Many have expressed concern that it will be difficult to sell a $2 bar even though the size of the bar and the profit has increased. The profit on the bars is going from $12/box to $28/box. All of the flavors will remain in the fundraising line. I contacted Andy’s Candies in Bavington regarding their program and here is how their program operates.They offer 3 items for their fundraising line… Chocolate Covered Pretzel Rods (2/pk…full-sized rods), Chocolate Covered Oreos (2/pk) and a Nutty Bar (a chocolate bar with peanuts). Each of these items sell for $1 each and your child’s ISA will earn $14-$15 per box (depending on how much of the profit is required to go to the boosters).Each flavor comes in cases of 30. So while the profit appears to be smaller on Andy’s, do you feel it is easier to sell a $1 piece of candy?
Please bring your thoughts to the next boosters meeting on Monday May 20th. I appreciate your feedback and we’ll go with the program that the majority desires.
