Let's make a deal

Christopher and Benjamin have finally realized that there is a profit to be made amongst the college students. They would take our candy, set up shop in the Lobby and ask passerbyers if they wanted any candy...which of course was almost always in the affirmative. The student would take the candy and THEN the boys would say that it was a quarter. At that point the student could barely back out of the deal with the candy already in their hand. It was a sweet little profit for the boys.
Finally, they became altruistic with their newfound skills and began raising money for the American Heart Association. Their tactic was to open with the line..."Do you want to save a heart?" Like anyone who was not Hitler could say "no" to that. And then they would hit them up for a "small" donation. I have to admit that the kids have quite a talent. They definately beat my..."Hello, my name is Kathy Gulick. Would you like to sponser me for the Multiple Sclerosis Bike-a-thon?"
