I am doing a fundraiser at school and I need some input

This has absolutely nothing about addiction, unless you are addicted to sweets and chocolates.  I am the sponsor for the national honor society at our high school and I am trying to help the kids raise money for the national convention.  I am having the members of the group bring individually wrapped cookies, cupcakes, and brownies to the school to sell at recess after lunch.

My question is this, how much do I charge for an individually wrapped brownie?  I am never good at charging people for stuff.  I hope nothing ever happens to my husband because our business would go down the toilet because I wouldn't charge enough.  

Ladies you may be able to visualize this better than men so here goes.  I made a 13x11 pan of brownies and cut it in 12 equal sizes.  The brownies were pretty big.  Our principal said to charge  $1 a piece for it, I said .75 and the point was made that I would then be giving out a lot of change that way.  Help me out  here guys, this is driving me crazy.

I know this sounds silly after all the other serious questions on here, but everyone else I know have gone to bed.

Thanks,
Susan

P.S.  medhelp, please don't ban me, I am not asking for money!

make it simple, $1 is easy for the kids and takes less time for the transaction.

Don't even feel guilty about charging a dollar.  I've paid 20 bucks for a bowl of popcorn for my friends kids school thingeys. lol   I'd give a kidney for a brownie. Make sure you have some cold milk around to sell too. LMAO

Charge a 1.00 for them as it goes for a good cause.  The change thing makes sense too.  Have fun............sara
