FEB VSN NEEDS $$$ FOR PRIZES
Here's the news you've all been asking for.......
We're adding a great new twist to the VSN prizes this month, and I think it will be great for everyone!!!!!!
We will be giving away MEMBERSHIPS TO THE SCS FANCLUB!!!!!!
Here's how it will work: If you want to donate money - and I know you do ;) then Paypal the money directly to SCS and it will go into a special VSN account. The number of prizes we give out will depend DIRECTLY on the amount of money collected. There will be the same number of winners (3 / challenge), but if we don't have enough money, some will not get a prize. It will be randomly determined. We hope that EVERYONE will get a membership. We will start with 6 month memberships, and if we have enough money, some people may be able to get FULL ONE YEAR MEMBERSHIPS. If a winner already has a membership, it will carry over and pay for the renewal!!!!!
So, when you decide how much to donate, think about how much you would have spent on a prize, *AND* how much you would have spent on postage to mail it to the coordinator - BONUS: NO WASTED MONEY ON POSTAGE AND ENVIES - IT ALL GOES TO PRIZES!!!!!
If you don't want to use Paypal, I will have an address for you to send a cheque.
BUT......Not only are the winners getting a prize, but SCS is getting some money to help pay for that new server that they needed because of us!!!!!!
Daven says: If you *really* want to know :^) I was painting. Here's the link, thanks everyone!
Click here to make a February VSN prize donation (PayPal)
Thank you Daven for all your help!!!!!
VSN Sweethearts are SCSers who have donated more than $30 to this idea!
So far we have one VSN Sweetheart:

Totally great idea!! Can't wait to send money when the paypal link comes up. I'd also think about how much money you'd spend on a Friday Night and Saturday day and night out with the girls!! And now think about how much you're saving by staying home and playing VSN!!!

When I read that " Buttercup " was being brought onboard to help with the traffic jams I told my hubby I wished there was a way we could do something like a silent auction here to help raise $$$. Sooooo this is wayyyyyy cool and a win, win for the site and the lucky winners! Good thinking!

Karen:
Your tag line for donations to the February VSN prizes links up to a Paypal page that says VSN (January)....Do we need to have Daven change that the February? Just thought I'd ask!:confused:

I've already asked him to change it. If money is sent to that account though, it will still go to Feb since we didn't so this in Jan. KWIM?
I think he confused it because we are still in Jan now.

Wow! Fantastic idea! I'll make a donation at a later date. How much is a full year membership up to now? $24.99? I guess I could just look!

Just sent my donation via PayPal! We can't afford much right now (DH is in grad school), but every little bit helps!
