That was one my boy sold through a school fundraising. I figured you'd recognize it from your school.
It sucked I bought $90 worth of those things and would only eat 1/2 the varieties at best. Had to buy them by the full variety boxes.

I really don't buy fundraiser stuff from kids because too many of them ask me so it's not fair to try and pick and choose who to buy from. 🫠
I can't buy from all of them lol.
But i do think the ones at the back dr. Go to a fundraising deal for missionary work.

I don't like the whole way the fundraiser deals are set up here.
The kids get rewards for how much they sell. There was different rewards depending how many boxes they sold. My daughter bought a couple boxes too so the boy got in on the "ice cream party", "movie and popcorn" and the "bounce house event".
If you don't sell enough you get to sit in class and read while the others go to reward. That's gotta suck for those kids and it isn't their fault at all. I've never had anywhere where I could pimp out that many candy bars and I'd imagine that's the same for some other families.

I know right!
That was how it was when my kids were in school. Total BS man.
So.. You know it's not the kids that are actually selling. That stuff is not like it was when we were growing up. We actually had to go door to door and try to sell stuff to our neighbors and people in the community.
There ain't nobody that is going to let their kids go by themselves door to door now to try stuff for fund raisers. And most parents are not going to escort their kids around to do it.. The parents are the ones doing it.
So the kids who sell the most stuff end up being the kids who have social butterfly parents. 🤪
Or rich parents who just buy a bunch of stuff themselves so the kid gets the reward.

I was not one of those parents.
I swear.. in the world we live in today with all the participation tropy mentality..
Why is this kind of stuff not thought about more?
Such a crock of 💩
