[Ncabs] more krispy kreme

I think what Preston is saying is that we can sell the tickets 2 ways.
We can either purchase the tickets from Krispy Kreme and sell them, or
we can take orders from people who are interested in buying a ticket,
and then take that list of people to Krispy Kreme and buy a ticket for
every person who has given us money. The advantage to purchasing the
tickets beforehand is that once we interact with buyers, we don't have
to arrange to see them again, but we also run the risk of purchasing
too many tickets which would then be a cost to NCABS. The advantage to
taking orders from people who want to buy a ticket is that NCABS won't
buy too many tickets, but the disadvantage is that we have to talk to
people multiple times, we have to take their order and collect their
money, and meet up with them again to give them their actual ticket.

The third option would be for NCABS to purchase actual doughnuts and sell them.

I personally believe that we should set up a station and run it for a
few mornings. Perhaps a place on NC State's campus would be good, but
i understand sometimes campus's have rules about noncampus orgs
selling stuff, so maybe we could find a place right off campus, or we
could set up a station where cars would be driving out of an apartment
complex in the morning, or where people would be getting on the bus. I
think we should also buy tickets and give each member some that they
must sell. That way, once they make the sale, we have the money, and
there isn't need to meet up again.

Preston, you might have answered these questions, and I'm sorry if you
have, but is there an expiration date on the tickets? Also, can these
tickets be redemed at any Krispy Kreme? If so, that would be awesome,
because otherwise, members outside of Raleigh can't really help.

Thanks, and Jewel, i hope that clears up some of your confusion. If
not, please let me know.
