Every year 5-6 parents at my office mercilessly put this shite out looking for cash. Little did I know when my first kid got in to school she'd had to sell this stuff. The wife says I have to bring it to work....ugh..... Anyone ever just pony up the $120 and give away the chocolate to hobos on College drive?

That's what I was thinking. Just pass it around the office and screw up everyone else selling it.

I don't have a problem with people selling it at work as long as they just kinda put it on the counter and let people buy what they want...don't like them coming around asking you though...

it is some damn good chocolate, though...

They've throttled back on the number of almonds in the bars.

I actually like it when parents/co-workers sell the traditional chocolate covered walnuts. Not sure how they do it but theirs is the best.

The new version where you have to order from a catalog sucks though.

WFC is the only fundraising product I never mind buying.

I'll take five of the almond bars please.

Oh and come by my desk again tomorrow.

Bring the chocolate covered almonds then please. Maybe five or six boxes would be nice.
