HavenFund Paypal "Widget".............

[Merlin1958]

OK folks. I'm a very enthusiastic supporter of the annual "Haven Fund Raiser" If, you have not already noticed. We, as of this moment, have raised $500 towards a goal of $1,500 for Paypal donations. Well done, but we are not quite 'there yet". Please, if you are able in these tough economic times, give as much as you can to this wonderful charity!!!!


The Donation "Widget" appears on the homepage and elsewhere. $5, $10 or $25 anything you can spare is GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks, in advance, to all the wonderful and charitable members here!!!!!


THE BEST IN THE STEPHEN KING UNIVERSE!!!!!!!!!!


:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

[Merlin1958]

C'mon folks!!! We're almost halfway there ($600) on Paypal donations!!!


Tell you what, I'll keep "Bomber" exclusive to this thread. For every $25 in Paypal donations he gets a treat!!!!!

Make a Paypal Donation & Feed the Dog!!!!!!!!!

I have to ask if the link is "safe"? I dropped my paypal acct because it somehow got hacked and it was linked to my bank account so it was not pleasant. Paypal eventually gave me back every penny stolen but I don't want to go thru that again ever. I see on the link that we can also pay with a credit card, but does that also go thru paypal?

[Merlin1958]

Yeah, If you register the card on your paypal account. That's wierd. I've always heard that Paypal was secure. I have never had any problems with it. At least they made good on the fraud. Which is what you pay for right?

Edit: Actually, I prefer to register my Credit cards and not bank accounts with Paypal. You get double the fraud protection from Paypal and your individual card company. As a rule, I let no one, but my Mortgage Co. have any access to my bank account. That's sacred and smart. At least IMHO

[Merlin1958]

Am I the only one "Feeding the Dog"? C'mon folks!!!! Every $25 he gets a treat!!!!! He's wasting away!!!!!


LOL LOL LOL

[Merlin1958]

Got a deal for you folks out there.

Starting now, I will match each $5 donation up to $50. However you have to post it here and leave your first name and last initial (for verification). Plus, Bomber gets a treat each time, and I am sure Bob (CRinVa) will do the same for "Buddy". So how about it folks............


Donate and Feed the Dogs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!





Edit: as of this post the paypal donations are at $770!!!!

[alinda]

my paypal has been limited by paypal with out a long explaination, I'm working on something here....
maybe even write an old fashioned check:lol: hang in there old doggies,
Love Linda L.

[Merlin1958]

Bomber say's "Ro-K, rost's (detailing) Recks, rill rount"!!!!!

[Merlin1958]

C'mon folks!!!!! We're still at $770!!!!!!

Can no one spare a Five to feed these poor starving dogs????????????

[Merlin1958]

Okay, way to go!!!! We're at $790 now, but remember I'm only matching Paypal bids posted here for the next $50!!!!! So we can now got to $890 if anyone can donate!!!!!


Feed the Dogs!!!!


I gave "Bomber" a half a treat for the $20!!!!!

[Merlin1958]

Bomber was wasting away, so I made it $800 total as of today!!!!!

That means that if you folk's can come up with a total of $50 we can reach $900!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They dared to limit my account once for no reason. I assure you if you call and bitch they'll fix that. They tried to tell me I could verify by giving them my routing numbers for my bank. I said I don't have a damn bank. Now fix my account. It was fixed within an hour. :)

I'm not good with math so how many treats has Bomber earned now?....Any how many pounds has Bomber put on since the start of the fundraiser! :P

[Merlin1958]

He's earned 8-10 treats already, but surprisingly, this fund raiser has added little to his girth!! He's still a "puppy" at 2 1/2 and he plays quite vigorously!!! When he gets that ass of his moving, Watch Out!!!!!! lol
