Retro postcard of thanks anyone?

June 25th, 2008 | Inspiration, thanks

My mom has uncovered a batch of (unused) postcards dating from decades past (Lake Louise in the 70s?).  She has offered to send one of these as a personal thanks, by good, old fashioned post to the next 50 people who donate.

So there you have it.  Send a donation my way, fire me an email afterwords with your address (anywhere in the world), and you’ll get a personal note of thanks, on a retro postcard, from my mother.

To get yours, click on the shiny button below. Come on, you know you want to!

I think that’s cool.

UPDATE: Postcards are gone folks, sorry!  And if you got in quick, you should get one in the next few days.

Hi Sick,

Yeah, I think we can find you a couple of postcards!

Fire me an email at brendanbaker [at] ewb [dot] ca (does this still work to avoid spam?) with both of your addresses, and I’ll get mom to send them out.

And in case others are wondering, there are still a few left, get’cher donations in!
