A student in the United Kingdom was sent home from school this week for selling squirts of hand sanitizer to his peers, his mom claims.
“Why is he getting in from school at 10:53am you ask?” Tompkins wrote. He had was just sent home for capitalizing on coronavirus fears by “charging students 50p a squirt for hand sanitizer.” She also said that disciplining his behavior was tough when his dad was calling him up to let him know he’s a “legend.”
Tompkins later added that her son made just over $11 for his little business, selling each squirt for roughly 63 cents. He blew his profits on a multipack of Doritos, she said, and was “saving the rest to buy a kebab later.”

We used to rent practice gear in highschool to freshman until the administration shut us down.

That's a young entrepreneur in the making. Already understands supply and demand

Did the school have any specific rules on not selling items in school? If not, I’d have him in some sort of business GT class.

There were a lot of things like that at my jr high. Reeses seemed to sell the most, then highschool came along and. And then many fellow students would pay premium for those 6 hour vhs porn compilation films
