Quite the salesman

I came home to these signs on the door on Saturday morning. Turns out that Jake opened up little store to sell his handmade bookmarks. He put on his Sunday best so that he would "look good for his customers" and yelled for customers. Actually, he sold quite a few of them. The pricing was a little interesting. Some were 1 cent, others 32 cents or even free as the sign says. I support the handmade arts so of course I bought a few. I admire his inventiveness. He has opened quite a few stores now. Car wash, yard sales and lemonade stands. Remember the very successful lemonade stand?

Remember the fund raisers that the elementary schools did. I remember being so excited after the assembly they had telling us all the really cool stuff that we could earn if we sold impossible amounts of wrapping paper. Wrapping paper that I couldn't even sell to my parents. Well, Jake's' school is selling cookie dough and so far, Jake has sold 10 orders all by himself!! He is hilarious to listen to! He has quite the sales pitch. He left looooong messages to those who weren't home about all the gourmet (pronounced "gor-met") and premium flavors and how they can use a check. When they called back, his customers said that he was just too cute not to buy from. I haven't helped him with one thing. This is all his thing.

Looks like my little guy has the knack for sales like his Dad!
