What's Thanksgiving without a little bargain hunting the day after the big meal? For this year's national shopping spree (and judging by the media coverage, Black Friday is now a holiday in its own right), we at the CL Holiday Auction wanted to sweeten the deal for you, the holiday shopper. As such, here is our Black Friday bargain:
Every person who bids on one of the Movies & TV-related auction items listed below between the hours of 12 a.m. and 11:59 p.m. today (Fri., Nov. 26) will receive a Social Network Schwag Pack, which includes a Social Network T-Shirt, full-sized lobby poster and tote bag. (All while supplies last, of course…)
Remember: Everyone who bids wins the Schwag Pack, regardless of if they win the auction or not. Bid on multiple items, we keep adding T-Shirts and posters to your Schwag Pack.* It's that simple!
- #046: The movie-lover’s special
- #047: Be a movie reviewer
- #048: Ultimate TV Blu-ray & DVD package
- #049: TV sci-fi lovers Blu-ray & DVD collection
- #050: For the kids Blu-ray & DVD package
- #051: Summer flashback Blu-ray & DVD package
I hope you'll bid and bid and then bid some more. If not, there's always Cyber Monday (and a new slate of deals from the CL Holiday Auction). Remember, every penny spent goes directly to The Children's Home of Tampa Bay, turning your conspicuous consumption into hope for hundreds of Bay area kids. Thanks everyone!
*-HERE'S THE FINE PRINT: Only one tote bag per person. You have to pick up your Schwag Pack from our offices, located in Ybor Square in Ybor City. No shipping. Sorry! Schwag Packs will be ready for pickup at the end of the Holiday Auction, on or after December 16. (If you must have it sooner, contact Joe Bardi at joe.bardi@creativeloafing.com and perhaps he can work something out.) Finally: No scamming. Remember, this is for charity folks. Anyone deemed adding tiny bids only to score more T-shirts will be disqualified.
