Being Ripped Off by the BSA


Nat has been the 2nd Counselor in the Young Men's for about 8 months now and he just got around to buying himself a scout uniform seeing as he's over the scouts. Do you want to know what you get for $58.00? A shirt, a few lousy patches and a handbook. $58.00?? Seriously. I do believe that the Boy Scouts of America are ripping off the very people who are serving these boys and it's WRONG! How much does a khaki shirt really cost anyway? And forget about buying "official" cargo pants! I think we'll find those ourselves thank-you-very-much!

Really though...Nat is happy to serve! :)

I never see them wear cargo pants to the activities?! All the leaders wear jeans with there shirts! But what do I know, I am only a beehive advisor!

Go check out my rant on that on my blog. The only difference is we bought the pants-there goes $90.00-bye bye.
