Anyway I tipped them a dollar each just cause I was so happy . It is SPRINGTIME although the temp feels like SUMMER. Oh yeah I just found out my air conditioner is not working...maybe I will need to open a stand serving "drinks" on the corner! How come I never see boys with lemonade stands just girls? Support Your Local Neighborhood LemonAde Stands,Please and Thank You.

I think, for the most part, they let it slide (that is unless a particularly exuberant police officer comes across the stand).
Originally Posted By DlandDug Saw my first stand of the season about two weeks ago. Fifty cents! And the "lemonade" was basically watery Crystal Lite with no ice. But I still will stop and support kids who are willing to sit out on the curb and sell lemonade...

I can tell I have been in a much better mood lately knowing I will be in WDW soon. Breathing Disney air makes me not grumpy! I leave Wed morn and be there by noon I hope.
