Good morning!

Remember when we were kids how we could greeting cards and other items
from catalogs and earn prizes in return? Do any companies do that any
more? Current is the only company name i remember but I used to sell
for several and not only had a great time doing it but I also picked up
a lot of new stuff. It seems that the Internet age may have removed
this method of earning for kids. I've spent a considerable amount of
time searching and come up empty but I wanted to check with "the
community" before writing it off for my kids.

Thanks for the help. Have a great weekend -

Joe.


Mostly, those are now done to raise money for schools and such -- I
suspect you wouldn't have much luck selling "for profit", even if you
could find a company that did it.
