  Yeah this is a confusing amount of sales. Is everyone in his community just rich and willing to buy a ton? Or maybe one relative is loaded and just bought a bunch to donate as well. Even if every house he visiting in a day bought a tin it still seems far outside of achievable.
context: I grew up in foster care and we got a boat load of gifts from some donations. Of all the shit that happened in foster care, those presents made me feel a hell of a lot better. >
  
  
  Unfortunately they are out of wishes to fulfill right now.
  
  Ehh, I'd say fortunately they're out of wishes to fulfill, since if they're out that means that all the kids that charity helps got their wishes this Xmas! Thx for posting the link though. >
  
  A $11000 popcorn take-home for the scout is 5% of the total sales the scout made. That's $220,000 in $20 popcorn tin sales, or about 11,000 individual tins sold. That's not just "more than expected" that's like half a state on sales.
