How Much Would You Pay?

Diva has become an entrepreneur. What are her wares??


Well, let me tell you the story of how I became aware of her profits. The other day I took the girls out for a super cheap supper of 2 dollar menu items per person. As we were finishing our meals, Cowgirl asked if we could have ice cream. Typically, when we do the dollar meal plan, I do let the kids get dessert after we are all done. Well, I told them it wasn't in the budget and that we wouldn't be getting anything more. So, Diva offers to pay. Do you have any money, I ask her. Yes, I have $4 in my wallet. (I know everything she has earned from us is in the bank.) So, I again say no to the ice cream and ask more as to where she got this money. This is her story:Well, the other day Rich Kid wanted one of my silly bandz so I told him he could have it for a dollar. Then, I sold another one to another Rich Kid who also paid a dollar. Oh and I got another dollar from a Rich Kid on the bus, he wanted some of the caramel popcorn you sent with us as a snack on the bus and so I sold him 1 piece of caramel corn for a dollar. At this point in the game, I'm shoked. I'm sure my eyebrows were in my hairline and my chin was resting on the table. Oh yeah, and remember the day I took my gum to school (it's ok her teachers let her chew gum), a Rich Girl offered to buy some. She wanted 3 pieces for a dollar and I didn't want to give her three pieces so I gave her a piece and a half for $1, and she paid me for it.



What could this kid do with Bubble Tape??? Sell it by the inch???

Don't worry, we talked to her and told her not to take advantage of others and she needs to be more ethical in her sales.

She's One Smart Kid!!!!
