Ce care package.
 
SSDlovesLA@gmail.com

is set up and linked to it's own paypal account.

Do we want to collect $50? $75? $100 for Ce?

A lego set is $30-50 and a Gamecube game is in the same range or we could just do a gift card (assuming there is a TRU where he is)

I'm totally open to whatever you think we should get for him but that is what I've set up and Toys R Us allows paypal payments so I won't have to worry about linking to a bank account to get the money out.

P.S.
Don't forget to shop in her store!

I just sent some. Thanks, Priscilla.

FireWolf 04-10-2011 09:28 AM

I think $100 would be a good amount. It will easily allow CE to get a lego set and a game. I'll be sending money in the morning.

newfiemountiewife 04-10-2011 09:34 AM

Sent, Priscilla.

Angie4b1g 04-10-2011 09:34 AM

I think he needs a DSi and a couple of games, if you collect enough. :)

That is a GREAT idea, Angie!

Angie4b1g 04-10-2011 09:48 AM

If 20 people send $10, that's more than enough for a DSi and a couple games, and something he can carry with him rather than only use at home (if he's having to stay with family until she recovers etc).

I sent my $10. :)

Priscilla 04-10-2011 09:49 AM

If everyone is "game" for us collecting that much then sure! :)

*Celeste* 04-10-2011 09:52 AM

I sent some if you need more to hit your goal please don't hesitate to PM me.

Priscilla 04-10-2011 09:52 AM

I just did a quick search (on phone) and the DSi is between $135-150 and games are $20-30 each. So that in the $200 ballpark.

Yep...ditto to this.

Gemma 04-10-2011 09:54 AM

I'll happily send something, probably on Tuesday if that's not too late! :)

Gemma 04-10-2011 09:57 AM

In fact I have a random £9.50($15) in Paypal somehow so sending it now, I didn't know it was there so I definitely don't need it lol!!

Ditto here too. Once it slows down, see how much you're short, and I'm sure we can come up with it.

4noisyboys 04-10-2011 10:28 AM

I'm going to send some right now too...but I know Ce likes to also color and stuff, and given a gc, he'll buy fun art things and maybe even legos or whatnot. He likes to shop at Target!:thumbup: He's so cute too...he'll probably want to get his mom something with it!! Sorry...I don't know what a TRU is.

*Celeste* 04-10-2011 10:36 AM

TRU=Toys R Us.

SamaraGugler 04-10-2011 10:57 AM

Count me in too. I'm sending some right now.

ROFL!!!
You can tell I'm out of the loop with kids stores!

Priscilla 04-10-2011 12:02 PM

UPDATE:

You all ROCK!!!:thumbup:

Okay, it's barely been 12 hours and there is $169 in the account. (I assume paypal is "charging" us a fee?? I'll look into that in a bit)

make that $183!

I have a DSi, mario cart game, nerf protector (we didn't do one right away and ours ended up with cracks, I think it's a MUST), and a case that carrys the DS, cord, games and stylus.

total there comes to $262 with estimated shipping at $11.

The player itself is exactly $169.

So we want to add in another game? or just the one for now? If so what suggestions do you have?

I can also pick something besides MArio Cart, it just so happens to be a household favorite for both my DS and my DH so I think it would be fun for Ce too!!

---

It's time to make lunch for my DH and kids but I just wanted to let everyone know where we stand right now!!

Thanks for organizing this Priscilla.

4noisyboys 04-10-2011 12:07 PM

When I donated, I clicked "personal" and then "gift". It shouldn't charge a fee if you do it that way! If you clicked on "goods" then it will.

That is how I understand it anyway, and when people have paid me that way, there has been no fee.

4noisyboys 04-10-2011 12:07 PM

and yes....thank you so much Priscilla!! You rock!!:thumbup:

Priscilla 04-10-2011 12:08 PM

I'll probably order first things Monday Morning, so if there is a balance I will also send a target gift card for him! :)

and you are welcome but the biggest thanks is for everyone at SSD :)

Thank you for organizing this!

Penny Springmann 04-10-2011 12:59 PM

Priscilla - Ce is a HUGE Star Wars fan so the Legos Star Wars DS game would also be great...if you have enough money.
Adding some now! :)

MommaTrish 04-10-2011 01:04 PM

I'll be glad to send some money when my refund comes in.

newfiemountiewife 04-10-2011 01:05 PM

Amazing!!!! What a beautiful community we have here! *sniff

He LOVES LOVES LOVES Star Wars, so Penny's suggestion would be great!

cindys732003 04-10-2011 01:06 PM

Just sent some money along! :)
Thanks for doing this Priscilla!

Yup, that's how I done it, so I paid the fee for it.

SweetMelissa 04-10-2011 01:08 PM

I can't send anything right now but I should be able to by Friday. I'm waiting for some reward money from surverys to be added to my paypal count.

MommaTrish 04-10-2011 01:16 PM

since some of us can't send any now, what about using any you get in excess to get a her a gift card to some sort of grocery store? Something that will come in handy once she gets out of the hospital?

BrattyMeg 04-10-2011 01:26 PM

Just sent some $$

I agree with the Star Wars game. He would love it!

4noisyboys 04-10-2011 01:48 PM

I'm sure anything extra that Priscilla gets will be used to get a GC for La to get groceries or whatever. Just give when and if you can!! :thumbup:

Priscilla 04-10-2011 01:53 PM

We have enough for what's in my cart with 2 day shipping.

we can STOP or collect another $15-20 for an extra game.

Priscilla 04-10-2011 01:54 PM

So should I add Star Wars game? ? ?

And I agree ... My DS has Lego batman and it rocks.

Which one?

LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars for Nintendo DS ("new" and $30)

or

Lego Star Wars: complete Saga (older and $20)

If there's enough for the Star Wars game you should definitely add it! :thumbup:

jocelinsmommy 04-10-2011 02:01 PM

what are we short if we throw in the star wars game---?? I'll send a paypal now if u can tell me what we're short :))

Priscilla 04-10-2011 02:02 PM

scratch previous statemment that we need more.... Star Wars Clone Wars Game added and we have enough, almost to the PENNY!! The only thing "lacking" the the extra for fast shipping but I will be covering that.

I will order this evening .... Shawna is getting the best address for me to send.

jessica31876 04-10-2011 02:02 PM

just sent some money and I shopped at her personal store last night

BrattyMeg 04-10-2011 02:02 PM

which game do you have in there now?

TRU has a few DSi promotions right now that are probably worth looking into (free nerf case with one..that saves $18 bucks..almost another game) and free 2 day shipping but I think you have to use the promo link

also..if you buy Lego Star Wars (19) you can get Lego Batman for $6. If bought in addition to Clone Wars that's 3 good games at a decent price

newfiemountiewife 04-10-2011 02:08 PM

What do you have in there? All of the things you mentioned before (games, DSi, case, etc)? Let me know if you're short any!

Davita 04-10-2011 02:10 PM

Priscilla, are we still collecting for this? I want to do something to help.

nun69 04-10-2011 02:14 PM

let me know if you are still collecting :) And I think he would totally LOVE the Star Wars game :) Cause I can certainly give towards a GC or whatever else you decide to do with the extra money :)

knlchevys 04-10-2011 02:20 PM

Thank You Priscilla. Just sent some

newfiemountiewife 04-10-2011 02:29 PM

I think she was still collecting, and if there's anything left over, she was going to do a GC, I think that's what she said. She can let me know if I'm wrong :D

junebug 04-10-2011 02:41 PM

wow you guys are amazing to be doing this for La and Ce! i'm short on cash right now; i may be able to pick up a kit in her shop but i can't swing much right now. but i do know that La and Ce are two very loved and lucky people. :)

dover6473 04-10-2011 02:41 PM

Just sent some! Gonna go shop at her store as well.
