Really that is not right...at least wait for the second month, so parents can get the bills paid from the new things needed for the new school year!

My daughter started school on August 19th. As of last Saturday, the two major fundraisers for the year had already concluded.

Amen to waiting for a month in (although, I understand wanting to get the funds earlier in the school year), it's kickin' my butt.
