Bees killed= 325.00 Honey removal= 1200.00+ Materials used= 150.00 There was a bee in my back yard today, I didn't swat or kill him, I try to be nice to bee's because we need them... Anyway, I get up to go inside and the bee is resting on the door knob so I had to swat at him... "I will not be ignored!"

RCheli Posted December 27, 2018 Author Share Posted December 27, 2018 It looks like the GoFundMe has died. They're at $6.5k, and I highly doubt they're reaching that $50k goal. If they had offered something like a "Save Our Store -- $100 worth of back issue comics for $50" voucher, I suspect they'd get a lot more love.

It may not save the store, but he'll end up with some money and fewer longboxes to deal with when it fails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batman_fan Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 My sister-in-law did a GoFundMe. She is a super lazy individual but wanted some quick cash for a deposit on a new car and to pay her dues for a professional organization. She advertised that was what the GoFundMe was for and she far exceeded her goal. I donated nothing and felt great about it but her campaign really showed me there are lots of stupid people out their with more money than brains. greggy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason, this made me think of Homer Simpson talking about the dogs with bees in their mouth and when they bark they shoot bees at you. I don’t know why, but it made me smile.

Number 6 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 To the topic at hand: As much as I’d love to have my first LCS back, unless there’s some non- business related reason for their difficulties (and according to Foolkiller, that might be partially the case) I would be disinclined to contribute to a charity for a business. I’d be much more open to making purchases to support a store, especially if they were running some kind of special as suggested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
