Ok... this is my first diary and I feel pretty stupid. I am looking for help on my donation page at barackobama.com - Here is the thing ~ I have something to give away for donations and for some reason I am having a hard time "giving" something away. As I so often see on DKos.. the rest you will read... after the jump...
So here's the deal... I went on EBay and bought an Obama purse. I "won" and paid for 1 purse ~ the purse showed up to my house a week later (I love it!). Went to Vegas for my son's 21st birthday and when we returned... I found another purse had been delivered to my house. I sent an email to the artist (It was an original handmade purse signed and numbered by Joan Studwell) and asked her to check her records because I had received 2 purses instead of the one that I had ordered. Joan thanked me for my honesty and said it would cost more to send it back. She had one request "If I sold it ~ just send her 20 bucks".
So in honor of Joan Studwell (an Obama supporter) I am putting this purse up for donations at my donation page http://my.barackobama.com/... - I am having a hard time getting donations - I have received 2 donations, but no message on why they are supporting Obama (no email addresses to even include them in on the chance of getting the Obama purse). If anyone has any tips on what I can do to make this venture a sucess... I would appreciate any tips as to how I can get that done.
P.S. - If this is not the proper venue let me know and I will delete this.
Thanks
