Just because you think something is expensive, doesn't mean that the people selling them are being stingy or w/e. You could easily make your own orbit balls. They are offering, so technically, they are being nice.

The flip side of this is that the team who purchases the supplies and puts in the hours making the balls could turn what was meant to be a productive fundraiser into a financial fiasco.
In the end, the venture has to be looked at carefully and decisions made wisely and realistically.
