I am sure you all know about the devastating floods occurring in Queensland and other areas at the moment. There is nothing that I can say to add to what you already know, and there are many many stories of devastation and sadness unfolding.
Thanks to Toni of Make It Perfect, a whole heaps of bloggers are offering sales, auctions, raffles and giveaways. Toni will have a master list of all the happening up on her blog on the weekend.
For my small part I am holding a raffle / giveaway.
Please read carefully:
- This giveaway is open to everyone no matter where you live.
- I will cover all postage costs.
- To enter this giveaway you must donate $5 to the Premier's Flood Relief Appeal.
- You may enter as many times as you like but each entry / donation must have a separate receipt number. (eg: donate $5 ten times if you want to donate $50- then comment ten times with your receipt number and yep its a pain in the bum, but that is as fair as I can make it folks)
After you have done this , return here and leave your comment with your receipt number.
If you don't have an account to leave a comment you can click on my profile and email me your name and receipt number and I will comment for you.
I am offering this little elephant and robot as the prize - they will both go to the person randomly chosen as the winner on Wednesday 26th.
You know, my last giveaway had almost 200 comments - I wonder if they will all come back with their $5 to donate ?
I mean, is there really something better you can do with only $5 than to give it to the people affected by the floods.
I doubt it.
So come on guys, join in here or on any of the blogs that are joining in. Keep checking back with Toni as she posts updates and look out for that master list on the weekend.
And those of you who twitterbook ? get on it !!!
Please only comment here with your Receipt number... Other comments will be deleted to make the random thingo a bit easier - ta!
First comment is from teenshoeaddict who jumped the gun on yesterdays post so I have popped her in here.

ReplyDeleteMy first receipt number is 3171718.
You're such a kind person, and your softies are awesome! I noticed you've got tons and tons of comment entries on your book giveaway - I'd urge those people to give $5 too! But if they're reading my comment, chances are they came here to write their own receipt number so I'm preaching to the choir, lol!
Anyway, again, you rock. Love your work!
