From Sandy: apparently, people DO abaondon their $1.00 StoopidStore carts! i never woulda thunk it.

2] Strange and/or Relevant Questions I have Received!

Maryann: if the Lymphoma Society sends you a nickel, can you count it?
A: Yes! why not?! the more charities that send us money, the more money we can give back to charity!

3] General News!

* a reminder that March is an Xmas Dinner month. all monies collected in March will go toward those twirly chocolate straw thingies that come in cans.
* we should have absolutely no trouble hitting $100.00 by the end of the upcoming week. at this rate, we can easily clear $300- $400 for the year. let's make that our goal!
