That's not a bad idea. Too bad we finished our last major fundraiser for the year (expensive dumb coupon cards, but we also had a box of candy for those that didn't wanna pay $10 for a card) We made more profit on the candy & donations than we did with the cards.

What I've done in the past is buy personal supplies, and just reimburse the pack for the rewards value (or that minus the difference between what I paid there and what I could have gotten at, say, Walmart). Can only buy so much paper, though.

We might use some of it to give the dens a craft "boost" at the beginning of the year...right as the back to school sales occur.
