In the last four years, Creative Loafing has raised over $70,000 in our annual holiday auction for the benefit of The Children’s Home.
In the next four weeks, we hope to take that total much, much higher.
And this year we’ve made it even easier to bid on your favorite items: The auction's on eBay.
But please note: You’ll have to work fast.
We’ve divided the auction into four separate sections this year. That means you’ll only have a week to bid on items in each section. The auction schedule is as follows.
Week One: Nov. 14-21
Auction begins at 5 p.m. on Thurs., Nov. 14, and ends at 5 p.m. on Thurs., Nov. 21.
Week Two: Nov. 21-28
Auction begins at 5 p.m. on Thurs., Nov. 21, and ends at 5 p.m. on Thurs., Nov. 28.
Week Three: Nov. 28-Dec. 5
Auction begins at 5 p.m. on Thurs., Nov. 28, and ends at 5 p.m. on Thurs., Dec. 5.
