At our school, we used to sell flowers (carnations) which you could buy with a little homemade (think construction paper square) card. Kids would buy them for their sweethearts or teachers, or just to have them.

We sold them for $1 -- but I think with inflation you should charge $2.

The other way to do this as a fund raiser is to do it near a holiday time and have kids deliver them to the recipient's homeroom. It can kind of be a "secret crush" thing then. Buy a flower sometime the week before delivery day...fill out the card when you buy...card and flower get paired up the morning of delivery and sent to the kid's homeroom.

Just a thought...
