It’s not my fault you’re all so recklessly optimistic.

The price of donuts

May 3rd, 2008 · 4 Comments

If you’re selling donuts on the side of the road, I recommend advertising the price. If I see boxes of donuts and signs that say that the boxes do in fact contain donuts, and other signs that say that the donuts are for a wonderful cause, but with no indication of the cost, I’m probably going to assume that the donuts are exorbitantly priced and thus drive on without giving them a second thought. Except maybe to blog about the faulty marketing being employed.

On the other, it is a pretty smart move to sell them on the route to a music festival. People going there are probably planning on getting ripped off on food anyway. And I’d say there’s a decent chance they wouldn’t mind some donuts.

    i once sold those for dance. I no longer like krispy kremes. I bet that they where $6.

    And who knows how long those doughnuts have been inside of the boxes? Ew.

    Oh, and I like your little tagline under the “Life of Trevor” thing. It causes me to laugh.

    assume they’re free, take them and if challenged say, “But there’s no price!”
