Joes For Tots '09

Hey y'all, I just wanted to give you a heads up that when you're out shopping this holiday season that you should remember that there are others less fortunate out there and that you might want to think about donating to Toys For Tots.

To help encourage you to give this year, I'm running the 2nd annual Joes For Tots contest. All you have to do to enter is take a picture of yourself donating toys or send me proof of an online cash donation. What can you win? Good question! Here's the list of stuff:

- Sideshow 12″ Cobra Commander – From Sideshow Toys

- Battle Front Clone Pack, Battlefront Droid Pack, Crimson Empire Pack, G.I. Joe Mars 3 Pack – From Brian’s Toys

-1 Custom Action figure in 6″ or 3.75″ scale (your choice of character)- From Evan Jones of FigureRealm.com

- 2 50 Dollar Credits – From Big Bad Toy Store

- 5 $10 Gift Certificates – From 80sTees.com

For more rule details and to see how the prizes break down please visit PoeGhostal.com, the host of this year's contest. You can also follow the official Twitter page for news updates and extra stuff.

Thanks!

Well, I enjoyed my prizes from last year, I just hope I can double my donation this year. the goal this time around is to gather $20,000 in toys.

My goal is to get twice as many entries. Good luck Mr. Soldier!

We might have to steal this idea from you, Paul!

You can't steal the concept of charity! Thats like trying to steal music on the internet!

Hey SK, Paul has no official home, so joes for tots is kind of an across the web thing. He gets help from Poe Ghostal, Hisstank, the Yo Joe boards and many other's too. His sponsers also link to the story about it. Maybe you could just offer him a home.

Well in order to help me and therefore the contest, the best thing would be to write about it in some capacity on your main page and throw up a link to PoeGhostal's site for the full rules and all that. I'm going to send out a press release if you want one of those.

The reason why I'd want someone to help me is that the bigger this gets the better prizes I can get each year and the more attention that it will get so more kids will be helped.

Hey guys, where do I send my little press release/news blurb thingy? I can't find a link on the front page here to send it to you.

There should be contact info on www.panelsonpages.com

Barring that, info@panelsonpages.com should work

And bumping for tots.

I'm in for this!

I wasnt able to get anything for the needy kids at work this year (damn giving tree was picked clean before I came in!)

So this sounds like a fun alternative!

Uh... sure. There will be toys... involved.

Bumping for Tots! Enter this contest! Seriously. I got the DeLorean in the mail the other day and it freaking rocks.

Thanks PoP overlords for covering this on your front page!

of course, sir.

What the hell is a Popover?

It's a flaky dessert, usually in a triangle and filled with fruit.
