Stand on a hot yet rainy day?

Question

My cousin and I want to have a stand outside my house today, but it's RAINING! Such as a Lemonade or Kool-Aid Stand. What type of stand could we have that isn't too expensive? My house is big and a lot of cars come down my street because there's a road closure so we really want to.

Answer 1

Honestly, I've never known too many successful Lemonade or Kool-Aid stand owners.  But, I've known a lot of successful business owners who got their start with an unsuccessful attemp at a lemonade or kool-aid stand.  I therefore encourage you to run the thing come h**l or high-water or even rain.  Find some cover for your business.  Who knows, the covered Lemonade Stand may be your ticket to success.  Working hard at anything will be your ticket to success.

GOOD LUCK in your adventure! Learn from the experience.

Answer 2

My spouse just made over $100 selling cookies from a table on the street. She priced them at 50 cents, but could easily have sold them for a buck each -- well, if she'd made them bigger.

Anyway, you can get frozen cookie dough at the supermarket fairly cheaply. My spouse used the English Bay brand -- superb oatmeal raisin and chocolate chip. They're really easy to make too: just scoop spoonfuls onto a baking sheet and bake 'em for 10 or 15 minutes.
