The Bottom Line Equals?

  It is our last day of Mini-Society and today is the big day.  Today we use all the skills and activities we have worked on to make our last day of business the ultimate success.  With all the money we earn today we will be able to bid on big items at our last auction of the day.
  We started our day by learning about a recycling project.  In business it is important to be environmental conscious   We would like to use products that can be reused or do not leave an impact on our environment   Sometimes it is as simple as just finding a creative way to reuse the products and an audience that would like to recycle.  As part of this lesson we used old greetings cards and cut the photos and the images in them to make place-mats.  Our collage place-mats were to represent us with the images we had in front of us.  They were very personal, very cool, and environmentally friendly.
  After getting ready to open our stores we took a brief break for a special lunch of Mr. Bobby's fried chicken, green beans, and mashed potatoes.  It was so good!
  Then it was time to get down to business.  We opened our stores and had end of week sales.  We offered incentives  bartered, and did everything we could to get as much cash for the big finale.  After we closed up shop it was time for the big auction.  We had items like water bottles, sports balls, and other great things to bid on.  It was awesome!
