In the past few weeks, choir has been selling chocolate bars as a fundraiser Every student in choir got to choose how many boxes they would like to sell, and I chose two boxes. I thought that selling two small boxes of 60 chocolate bars would be easy as pie, but I was sorely mistaken.

Every class, you have to sit there awkwardly with your box of chocolate on your desk, hoping someone will walk by and ask to buy a bar or two. You feel desperate for asking, but you NEED to sell that chocolate. The chocolate just stares at you in the face and takes over your life.

You walk around the halls, hoping to sell as many bars as possible without being obnoxious like the people with booths in the middle of the mall that always approach you, ruining your mall day. It’s great whenever you sell multiple bars to one person, but whenever someone asks for a particular bar, you’re out, and you lose the sale, it gets frustrating.

The best part about selling chocolate is finishing a box. I finished a box last week, and I was extremely relived. Now I just have to sell the second box, so hit me up!

Sales end soon so be on the lookout for those blue candy boxes and stock up now.
