    Already being a member of your sandwich making club, you know the only thing I can afford and you desire for your sandwiches is my mind and body.
    For a few hours every day, I will happily donate.
    But, before I go~~~
    I would like to help you with a couple suggestions for your campaign...

    "Cash only, please" isn't going to get you anywhere.  Beggars can't be choosy.  ;) :)
    Dancing with cash falling around you in a well-dressed suit and a million-dollar smile is NOT going to get you any donations from anybody of anything, especially CASH, since you already seem to have enough of that on your own.
    Try being a schoosh more humble and needy.

    I've gotta fly but good luck and I'll check back and see how it went for you on my return. 

    Good Luck!!
    :) :)

    I will bring you a pig to provide ham, a cow to milk and make your own cheese and flour to bake your own bread for about a year supply of sammiches. You can grow lettuce and tomato in your garden.

    Umm Err how do I say this without insult, that may be a food product enjoyed by those down under, Marmite is enjoyed in the UK.  Now have you ever seen a cookbook written using either product?  Have you noticed the finest Chefs in the Commonwealth tend to focus on foods other than said product.

    Now, final question; would anyone other than a starving Aussie eat this stuff?  I rest my case

    PS, for our Aussie friends here in Vienna we always do pick up a few jars to feed their demented addiction when anyone of us travels Downunder.  These folks are wonderful demented souls who are fun to have around This post was edited by Archerchef at December 15, 2018 5:40 PM MST

    Yes. Aussies who aren't starving also eat it, there are toddlers about who eat little else - refusing anything else. The trick is to spread it thinly, rather than larding it on like Nutella or PB.
    The comment was simply needling Randy.

    The 'good name' of the person asking is very important when promoting a charity.

    So no, I would not.

    Using any of the Kardashians probably wouldn't help you either.  

    This thought was inspired by JakobA the unAmerican.
