A donation of $250 from an AO sponsor with the challenge:

'An AO site sponsor has donated $250 and while preferring to remain anonymous does encourage other site sponsors to step up to the plate.'

Thank you Sir!

If I have missed anyone please accept my apologies, PM me and let me know.

I have had to clear my in box many times since we started, and I am trying to catch everyone, but am not sure I have it all.

I was in Lloydminster today, talking to my friends at Future Shop, and told them what we were trying to accomplish. I told them what a great bunch we have on the forum, and they decided that they are going to help out our cause.

From Future Shop, a Panasonic LUMIX ZS27 18mp camera, 20x zoom, wifi certified, NFC connection (touch and transfer) full HD 1920x1080 3D and touch screen.

I should point out, this is not the little $79 one that you would find at Walmart, this camera on sale is $279.00. Regular price close to $400.00.

I would ask that if you are ever in Lloydminster, go talk to the guys at Future Shop if you are looking for Electronics, they have always treated me excellent, and I would never turn anyone away from there.

Another item, from my good friend Jungleboy;

"I'll add one of my handmade pens to the mix , this is made from Lilac and is a bit of a thicker barreled pen so it feels nice in the hand"

These are always very popular in the PIF threads, they go fast.

Thank you Sir!

$20 is $20 more than we had before. Absolutely!

It may go for $150, so you may have to bid again, a few times....



But thank you for keeping the thread alive. Every single dollar helps!
