Don’t sell, just ask for donations




I think people should donate money directly to the local school band instead of buying bulbs etc. from what I call a “scam company.” These band members work so hard selling these items and a great percentage of the money goes to the company that offers the items.

My bulbs were tiny like marbles. One year I had frozen oranges, another a dried-up scraggly Christmas wreath. I’d rather the band gets a donation directly.
