Please let your parents know that we cannot sell those items, as we cannot ask people to pay prices for items they can purchase for less than half the price elsewhere. This bake sale is an opportunity to do some Christmas baking with your parent and have special time together creating something unique and special that brings joy to others, and raises money to help those who are cold, hungry, and feeling unloved at this time of year.
