Lemonade Stands pt II…

June 22nd, 2005

Quick update on lemonade stands…

My sister and I flew by one in my neighborhood and did a U-turn to head back to get some lemonade. We asked for 2 cups, they were asking 25 cents. We were prepared to spend a whole dollar as it was pretty warm out! They were also selling candy. The older girl ran into the house to ask her mom while the younger one sat there and stared at us with that puzzled smile that only a child can master. The old girl came out and whispered to the younger one. Then the younger one broke her silence and screamed, I mean screamed, "We don't have any lemonade!!!"

I am still confused, they had a ziplock back of maybe $10 sitting there but no lemonade. They advertised Starbursts for sale, yet had none. I will just have to keep my eyes peeled for the next time these 2 are out there selling lemonade and try and buy some from them. I did like their stand… And they had a wonderful sign.

    I don't know man…

    Nice stand, wonderful sign…Bag of cash…

    No lemonade OR starbursts?

    I would definitely keep my eyes peeled for the next time these 2 are out “selling” lemonade, so that the Better Business Bureau can have a little chat with them…

    It was obviously an FBI sting operation. They were decoys - agents posing as innocent little “lemonade sellers” (aka crack dealers) and were just about to make their big bust when you drove up and blew their cover. I hope you're happy….. this was the bust that was going to catapult them to the top. Now its back to mail fraud and Starbucks runs…
