89. I went to a Catholic School and the schools were always selling something i.e. candy, cookies, etc.

Private and public schools still are. The kids in my neighborhood are always selling something. I always buy some because I know how much stuff I had to sell to get through school. If it's candy or cookies, I buy it and give it to them, because many of them can't afford to buy the stuff they have to sell, and I certainly don't need it hanging around my house, calling my name.
