It is that time again my friends, time for the *insert religious holiday name here* raffle! I have just discovered the ‘Christmas raffle’ tickets in the bottom of a bag for the small child’s childcare centre. The proceeds go towards buying 'supplies' for the centre...
What’s that I hear? Outrage?
Just because the centre is a privately owned business does not mean that they shouldn’t be able to cash in on the holiday raffle! Why shouldn’t we have to donate prizes and fundraise for them to buy toys for our overenthusiastic child to steal off others, or paints for her to eat and get all over her clothes, the owners need to be able to guarantee their profit margins! So put you outrage aside because the fact remains - our child cannot wear the stigma of being the only baby in her room that doesn't sell all her tickets. And frankly, I don't want to buy them all!
I can't make any promises about the awesomeness of the Christmas Hamper because I refused to donate anything towards it - but the first ten lucky people to PayPal their dollar to me will have the once in a lifetime opportunity of buying one of these amazing tickets and feel good about ensuring that two businessmen in Queensland get to keep their condos – and who can say no to that!
