Nicaragua Bake Sale

In Events on March 3, 2011 at 10:59 am

Open 10am EST - 10pm EST 3/3/11

***BIDDING HAS CLOSED***

IF YOU WON AN ITEM YOU WILL RECEIVE A CONFIRMATION EMAIL WITHIN 24 HOURS. PAYMENTS SHOULD BE MADE VIA PAYPAL TO sweettaterblog@gmail.com.

Sorry for the confusion! The auction was apparently set to “WordPress time” (whatever that is), which, it appears, is one hour earlier than Eastern Standard Time. As a result, the auction closed at 9pm EST instead of 10pm. Sorry to anyone who was planning to swoop in at the end and win Ralph and Weaz’s cat treats (I know that’s what you were all waiting for). Unfortunately, I can’t reopen the auction or we’ll lose the earlier bids. THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO BID, DONATED AND SPREAD THE WORD.

Thank you for visiting my bake sale to fund an upcoming service learning trip to Nicaragua. [To read about the trip, click here.]

All the items below have been generously offered up by bloggers from all over North America and I truly can’t thank them enough. I hope you find something you simply can’t live without. When you do, this is what happens next…

How to Bid

  1. Click the MORE link next to the item’s description. Your bidding page will pop up in a new window.
  2. Enter your bid, name and email address (I’ll need this to contact you if you win)
  3. If you’re the highest bidder, the computer will let you know with a friendly pop up window. If not, it’ll let you know that you’ve been outbid.
  4. At the close of the auction, if you are the highest bidder you will be prompted to pay for your winnings via Paypal. I will email you requesting your contact information for shipping. I will then pass this along to the blogger responsible for your goods and they will get them out to you within two weeks. (You can work together to determine an ideal delivery time for both parties.)
  5. Legal mumbo jumbo: Sweet Tater cannot guarantee the integrity of “gluten-free,” “vegan,” “dairy-free,” “soy-free,” “raw,” or other dietary labels on baked goods. If you are highly allergic or ethically inclined, please make this very clear when communicating with your baker or (better yet) consider a non-food item. Please do not let your winnings sit around for a month, eat them, get sick and then tell me I made you sick. Please.

Thank you so much for stopping by! I am so grateful.

Sincerely,

Katie
