Money money money

Just placed an order for 100 t-shirts as part of a Relay For Life fundraiser. Kick in the teeth is, guess who has to put out the money for said shirts? :)

$595!!! Hahaha wow. I knew it was coming, and it's something that was thought about and deliberated and all that. There shouldn't be a problem selling them all and making the money back. But it still sucks to have to front that sort of money.

I'm usually pretty thrifty with my money, so it always amazes me how easy it is to whip out that credit card...

Still want that damn TV too. What's another $500? (Shiza!)

Wait, what? Relay makes organizers front the money for t-shirts? That doesn't seem right. How much does the ACS raise each year? T-shirt down payments should be their responsibility, not yours - especially since you're a volunteer.

Yeah, exactly. ACS won't give us money towards it because it's a "non-essential fundraiser."

Isn't that fancy?

I'm currently ready to destroy things over this seemingly simple project as well. They better damn-well wind up being awesome shirts.
