Fundraising sucks monkey butt

It's not that I dislike fundraising for the kids' schools really, but I seriously HATE ill thought out fundraising schemes. This one is Belgian chocolate, $3.00 per bar. 3 freaking dollars for a chocolate bar??!? I don't care how nice the chocolate is I can't pawn that stuff off on anyone I know! ESPECIALLY since it comes less than 3 months after they were forced to shill $1.00 bars of World's Best chocolate.

The school won't let us send freaking RAISINS for snack because 'they're too high in sugar', but they send my kid home with 25 bars of chocolate? My kid who BAWLED (again) when we explained (again) that the chocolate isn't for her.

There's got to be a better way.
