Awesome bought some tickets

Hey, question is each person doing their own listing?
Or is it being headed up by one?

It is my understanding that each person is in charge of their own listing, but some of us aren't familiar with HC so maybe someone else puts up their listings (I am going to have to ask for help for my listing!). We do have a basic template to follow, in terms of layout/wording/etc I believe.

As of 1:20PM EST - we've already sold 86 tickets.

WOW! I had a look at about 12.30pm est and was amazed then, I'll have to have another look. I can't wait to list my items - I think we're going to have a really great pants/hat/dipe-or-shirt set for offer, and I'm working on a soaker atm as well. There will be some really amazing toy/gift baskets next week too.

Just bumping this up since there's lots more gorgeous stuff available now and more to come

I just bought some tickets, and was just wondering if there is any way to combine them into one Paypal payment? I don't mind paing seperately, but I thought Paypal takes a bigger cut with individual payments.

TIA

imonion · 11-06-2006, 08:33 AM

not really, jennifer, since different wahms are in charge of the different drawinngs. we're using funded accounts where we can, so don't worry about the fees. sorry for all of the extra clicking, but there wasn't a way to combine like that.

lauraheartsherlittleone · 11-06-2006, 09:51 AM

At 11:45, I copied the orders list into Excel and totalled the "quantity" column just to check the progress... 680 tickets have been "purchased." If everyone pays... just think how much this money is going to help this family.

pixielinds · 11-06-2006, 10:42 AM

WOW thats amazing!

mamaofthreeboys · 11-06-2006, 01:09 PM

Woo-hoo that is wonderful news!
Thanks for keeping us update Laura

mhurst · 11-07-2006, 01:34 PM

Bump...new things are being added

lauraheartsherlittleone · 11-07-2006, 01:46 PM

We're up to 806 tickets sold and if everyone pays for their purchases, the donations to this point will be over $1500.
Morwenna's Elements has only 9 tickets left. And the lotteries are doing well.

MosaicMoonMama · 11-07-2006, 02:02 PM
