In 5th grade I used to draw cartoons for people for a nickel apiece.
Oh yeah, and in junior high I'd sell single pieces of bubble gum. I'd buy packs and packs of bubblicious, bubble yum etc. and bring it to school in a paper bag. I remember one winter when running to the bus I tripped on the ice and my bag went flying, scattering gum packs everywhere. I found a missing one in the spring and the gum was still good!

the kids who did that in my school turned out to be scumbags by college. they usually look for the easy way out and always looked to scam people.

When I got to high school (back then my h.s. was grades 7-12) I began to sell lots of stuff, and made pretty good money doing so.
I always had some racket or another going.
I could buy a few bucks of candy and easily double or triple my money on Snickers bars, M&Ms and Sweet Tarts (no gum, gum was banned and I didn't want to make waves).
The school changed from a system where lunch count was taken in home room to one where, before second period, students had to go to the cafeteria and buy a plastic lunch ticket token. This was done because they were not getting accurate counts during home room.
So I knew invariably people would forget and I doubled my money or more on those babies. There was a different color for each day and I'd buy a dozen or so every day and sell most or all of them.
I never figured out why no one else tried to do the same thing.
I also carried extra pencils to sell to maroons in math class who were always forgetting.
They cost 2 or 3 cents and I'd get a dime per.
I'd sometimes sell sheets of notebook paper, too.
I had quite a bet book going on football games. This was before ESPN and shit, and most other kids didn't read the paper or get the news in the morning and there were times when a key player would get injured in practice and not many knew about it that morning when I preyed on some pidge or another.
I later sold a lot of dope but overall have not turned out to be a wealthy businessman.
I still have a saying, "There are a million ways to make money, if you are out of a job you can still work and get paid. Just give people what they want, can afford, but don't have the time or skill to do themselves."

didn't sell shit, but my senior year chemistry class was taught by the mother of one of the kids in my grade. sweet lady but she had zero control over the class. we'd take orders, ask to be excused and return from the candy shop with bags of candy to distribute while she kept trying to teach. damn good times.

In around 80'-81', while in elementary school, my family would sometimes drive down to Charleston SC and Savannah GA. On the way we would stop at this place called South of the Border in SC. It was like heaven for a kid; they had all the fireworks.
I took tons of fireworks back to D.C. and sold them on the blacktop during recess. I took the black cats off the brick and sold them for five or ten cents each. I can't remember what I sold the bottle rockets for. The stuff was like gold in D.C. for the elementary crowd.
The M-80 was kind of an urban myth. We did find M-70s, though.

We had real M-80's. We'd throw them into the Shenandoah River, and watch the water shoot into the sky when they blew up.
