    Yeah what school is just telling the kids to bring in money. That’s asking for trouble.

    When I was at school you actually had to pay for your lunch with cash. On the day.

    Yeah, we didn’t go to the school canteen.

      In OPs case the field trip really only cost $10 but the teacher jacked it to $20 when they told the kids to shake down their parents

      The 90s were a wild time where parents and teachers just trusted kids for some odd reason.

      I think our school had parents come to the office to pay in cash in advance, and then you got a letter when you were running low
