A bit like Harry Potter

A portal has been discovered.

Actually it's been set up, which isn't quite the same, but is almost as exciting. And here's the address
http://www.zacsplace.spendandgive.co.uk

What happens if you enter the portal? That's what you're longing to know, I can tell.

You won't go spinning through time or space.
You won't come face to face with Voldemort or Gandalf.
You won't be exterminated by a dalek.
You won't even find a potion that says 'Do not drink'.

But you will help raise money for Zac's Place. At no cost to yourself!

Apparently the portal is a magic little doorway and if you go to another site from it and buy something on that site, it blows fairy dust onto the proprietors who are so happy that they give pennies to Zac's. Or something like that.

And you know what your granny said about pennies. 'Look after the pennies and the pounds will take care of themselves.'

So put the portal in your Favourites and when you're shopping at HMV or Amazon or Marks & Spencers or a whole host of other online retailers, go there from the portal.

And be a fairy this Christmas.


P.S. If you click on the link you'll get some sense about this very excellent scheme.

ah I am using a uni computer. Think I have to buy a new 'puter. And just before Christmas too. And when my credit card interest-free-ness has run out. Sigh....

We're doing the same for the grandsons' ice hockey team using Easyfundraising - they are a good idea, aren't they? I'll use Zac's Place next time I go to Amazon, Liz.
