As usual there will be 5 charities to chose among. Please vote which 3 you prefer (does not matter whether 1,2 or 3 - will count as 1)- the sales proceeds will be split among the 5 charities pro-rata based on votes. If a person votes for more than 3 charities - the first 3 in order will be given the votes |

Rules for the lucky draw of the free giveaway(s) 1. The draw will be held 24 hours later, ie Monday 7:30PM EST using the usual on-line platform where you can immediately check whether you won. 2. Each person who buys during the sale will get 1 entry 3. First person who buys during the sale will get 1 extra entry 4. For every $40 purchase by each buyer 1 extra entry (ie $40-$79 1 extra entry, $80-$119 2 entries etc 5. For every 5 lots by each buyer 1 extra entry (ie 5-9 lots 1 extra, 10-14 lots 2 extra entries etc 6. Towards the end of the sale a picture of the free giveaway will be shown where you need to be fast. The first person who claims the picture (sorry comic cannot be claimed ) will get 3 extra entries, the second person who claims 2 extra entries, the third person who claims 1 extra entry. To be valid you need to reply to the picture stating “claim” “I take it” or something similar. 7. Before the sale starts there will be the usual competition who can make the closest guess to the total sale. The person who guess the closest will get 2 extra entries.
