Do your ears perk up when hear that your favorite store is having a sale? Do you spend endless hours surfing the internet for discounts? Does it feel good to help others? I bet most of you answered yes to these questions. In fact I will take that one step further & surmise that you'd probably donate more often if you could do so just by shopping. Am I right? Then read on, my friend, I have something terrific to share with you.
I discovered that there's an online shopping mall with at least 1000 stores in it. Gap, Kohls, Target, Nike, Home Depot, Perfumania, K Mart, PETsMART, Best Buy, Star Bucks, Avon and many more stores are included in the mall. This shopping mall is unique because it's FREE to register, prices are competitive, and you get discounts or earn rebates when you shop.
A brilliant person, Ginny Dye, found a way that we all can help others just by shopping online. I'm not kidding, it's true. Through Ginny's efforts when we register and shop online at ?My Power Mall,? 6.5% of all corporate profits go into the One-Child-At-A-Time program. This program helps needy children all over the country. An added benefit of shopping online is that you don't have to waste your hard earned money on expensive gas so that you can drive to the mall, nor do you have to fight the crowds. Don't you wish that you would have thought of this idea? I do!
Today's society desires and appreciates convenience. Well, what could be more convenient than shopping online in the comfort of your own home? If you want to do some holiday shopping, buy a wedding gift or birthday present, but hesitate to go out in the cold, then ?My Power Mall? is for you. Just stay home & shop on your own online mall.
You might say this sounds too good to be true. I agree, it does sound that way, but this is the real deal. It is important, however, to find out if any of the stores charge a shipping fee. If so, compare the cost vs getting mauled at the mall? Some stores offer free shipping depending upon the dollar amount of your purchase.
The online shopping mall is totally FREE to sign up & shop online. When I first heard about this opportunity I was a little skeptical, so I checked it out. I was very impressed with how easy it is to use. Plus, it feels good to know that I'm benefiting children simply by shopping online. I have to admit that it is fun to shop too!
You owe it to yourself and those kids who receive the donations to take a look at this. There's no obligation and no fee to register. If you're like me and you enjoy helping others I recommend that you register for your free online shopping mall.
Just think, you could get all of your holiday shopping done early this year, help others and earn money at the same time. Wouldn't it be great to receive rebate checks after the holiday season is over, instead of getting bills in the mail?
Together, we can make a better world!
While some of the larger, better known online auction sites, such as eBay, have categories for nearly every imaginable type of goods and services, there also exist specialty online auctions that feature only particular items, or groups of items. There are some auction sites that offer only books, others that only deal with antiques, and yet others that sell only automobiles. The world of online auctions is a diverse one, and is one that many people love being a part of.
Online auctions operate in a number of different ways; some auctions are more like the conventional auctions, where the highest bidder wins the auction and gets to buy the particular item or service for the their offered price. Other auctions have minimum bids, wherein if there are no bidders who bid high enough to reach the minimum bid, then the seller is not obligated to sell the advertised item. This option is mostly used for items that have a very high retail or collectable value. Other auctions have what is termed a "buy it now" feature. This is where the seller of the item sets a predetermined price, and the first person to accept this price wins the auction. Some of the larger online auctions use a combination of all of these methods, which affords many choices to both sellers and buyers.
Some people who are unfamiliar with online auctions may wonder how payment can be made once the auction is over. Some sellers will accept a money order, check, or cash sent through the postal mail, although these are probably not the safest methods to use paying for something won on an online auction. Most people will use an online payment service such as Paypal to send and receive payments associated with online auctions. Payment systems such as these allow payments to be sent via the Internet by E-check, credit card, debit cards, as well as by the use of checking accounts.
Many people turn to online auctions when they need to find a unique, one-of-a-kind gift, while others use online auctions as a way to find certain items to add to their personal collections. Sometimes, an online auction is the only place that some items can be found, and with the multitude of different items that are bought and sold online everyday, of you have something to sell, there is surely someone who will want to buy it. Likewise, if you are looking for a certain thing or gadget, you are sure to find it listed at an online auction site.
Online auctions can be fun, exciting, and a great way to spend a few hours on a lazy afternoon. You are also likely to make some new online friends when browsing the online auctions; people just like you who love to shop for bargains online!
