2nd annual Amazon drive - get a special edition pin

Carolc · 12-06-2011, 12:06 AM

Time for MouseScrappers 2nd annual Amazon drive!

Here's how it works... MouseScrappers.com is an Amazon Affiliate. If you click on our Amazon link before you check out, Amazon will set aside part of your purchase price just for us! It's that simple. It's a great way to help support MouseScrappers, and it won't cost you anything (well, aside from what you are purchasing from Amazon).

Use the Amazon link above (next to the Facebook logo) from now through December 31, and receive one of these special edition pins for your signature. It's my way of saying a special thank you for remembering to make your holiday purchases through our link.

(enlarged to show detail... actual images will be about 10pix smaller).

Just let me know what items you've purchased (either below or in a PM) and let me know which pin(s) you'd like to receive.

Order total / number of pins
$1 to $50: 1 pin
$50 to $100: 2 pins
$100+ : 3 pins

Note that you can only have 30 pins in your signature. You can 'sell' any pin you've purchased back to the shop at any time (you can't sell back a pin that was a gift, sorry).

Thanks for helping to support MouseScrappers!

Oh darn! I just spent $250 on amazon yesterday (christmas gifts). I don't know why I was thinking they were no longer a mousescrappers affliate.

My apologies Carol--I definitely would have gone the MS link so the site could benefit.

gack, wish this had been up black Friday. I did some SERIOUS damage then and over that weekend.... If I purchase more I will definitely use the link!

Thanks anyway, girls. It's my fault for not getting to this earlier.

Kathryn - Amazon did end the affiliate relationship with MS at the end of June (since I live in California... it had to do with a bill our governor signed that would require online merchants to charge sales tax to residents of CA). But in October it was overturned/put on hold (at least for the next year or so). So Amazon reinstated our relationship.

Thanks for the additional info Carol--glad to know that I am not completely losing my mind!

And as Andrea said, I will definitely remember the next time I am doing any amazon shopping!

No kidding, I didn't realize this! I just did all my long-distance shopping on Amazon because they had free shipping! I am sorry Carol. I wish I knew before I made all those orders earlier last month and this month

It's my fault for not pushing it up on my priority list. Just juggling too many things right now. I really appreciate the thought anyway! If I'm still an affiliate next Christmas I will probably have another 'holiday drive' since it's fun to give out 'limited edition' pins, and the number of purchases in this one month seems to exceed the rest of the year. I am 'paid' in the form of Amazon credit (not cash that can pay the hosting bills), but the credit is very useful as I just used some existing credit to buy a much-needed battery for my laptop (since I'm on this thing constantly!). I'm saving up the rest to get some kind of network backup (more frequent and robust than my EHD). I don't even want to think about the impact on the site if I had a crash.

{goes to knock on wood}. Anyway, thanks very much!

I just place an order for $256. I have been wanting to get some bath gel and Eau De Toilette. This was a excuse.
