Can I Go To The Bookstore?

Z called me yesterday at wok and asked if he could go to the new book store that just opened in out town. I just about fell over, Z go to a book store? Thanks Goodness!!

Z and two of his friends hoped on their bikes and rode over there. I guess his school was doing some sort if fundraiser with a new bookstorethat just opened. The school was really promoting that the kids and their families go there, so that must mean there was a catch. You bet your ass their was a catch! Apparently you make your purchase and the bookstore tacks on another 20% to your final bill. That 20% goes to the school...whoa, why doesn't the bookstore give 20% of their final sales for the day?? You have to add on another 20% to the consumer? Don't get me wrong, I think the community should get involved in school fundraising but so should the businesses. So needless to say, after the cost of the book, the taxes and the 20% add on, Z did not have enough money to purchase the book he wanted! Seeing as it is a book he wants, I guess I will go and get it for him anyways..
