Coupons-meeting people where they are at!

Part of my goal as PTC president this year is meeting people where they are at. So this year instead of $8 wrapping paper and guacamole bowls, we're selling Entertainment Books for our Fall fundraiser. Coupons -who doesn't like a coupon. Our local book has $20 in coupons at Safeway, so that's for sure something our community will use. The movie coupons we will use for sure as well. Buy 1 get 1.

One friend mentioned the idea of a coupon exchange. You can trade in the coupons you won't use....say golf.....for the ones you would use.....museums or a favorite restaurant. Cool idea, but I need another thing to plan like a hole in the head!

Fundraisers are not my favorite thing, but they are the real deal when you raise 50k for a school. Crossing my fingers these books sell and looking forward to my own coupons! Let me know if you are interested. The books are $40 in most areas and can even ordered for other areas and shipped there!

He'll be a Vike!

Got our phone call last night. Kyle was drafted....his team....VIKINGS! We couldn't be more pleased. Even Karly was excited and Kent is pulling out his Viking hats for all the coaches to use! Practice starts soon and games in a few weeks-looking forward to it here!

Now if only we could put in our order for Kyle to be a Cardinal for little league season....that would be perfect!
