We were given a handknitted bagpuss last night to sell at our fundraiser on Sun, and wanted to see if anyone on here wanted to buy tickets first, the plan is for you to pay by paypal, and I shall have a list of people and number of tickets, to write on the tickets on Sun. Tickets are £1 a go, and obviously all money is to go to CAT77 Shaw.

id like to buy a ticket but it seems i need this pay pal account to purchurse anything from purrsss
i havent got one how do i set one up ?????? :Crazy:
-
Dont worry about it JS, you know you have already helped us.
To be honest Lisa, I have no idea, I dont have a paypal account myself, so hopefully someone else can come and explain that!!
-
Lisa, do you have a debit account? If so, go to:www.paypal.co.uk and it should instruct you on how to fill in your details.
-
Desley, I'd like to buy a ticket or two. I'll PM you with my 'order'!
-
thanks jack ill try it ;D
-
sorry, am i being blind - how do i purchase??? ;D
-
Des do we pay to the normal Cat77 paypal account hun? I 'll get some tickets.
Paypal is a way to send money through someone's email address to their paypal account. It is free to set your own paypal secure account up and you will need a debit or credit card so they can draw funds to send the money from your bank to the persons email addy. This will automatically add funds to their paypal account and they can then transfer money to their bank account. It;s a way of sending money without giving bank details out.
You can open a free account here https://www.paypal.com/uk/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_send-money.
There are plenty of sites now incl ebay that have paypal buttons that you can pay with a card and not have a paypal account at all but to send money without a paypal button, you will need an paypal free paypal account. Our shop will have paypal buttons so peeps can pay by cards and do not need a paypal account.
(nope i aint on commssion lol :rofl: :rofl:)

but it seems i need this pay pal account to purchurse anything from purrsss
Lisa you can send them a cheque for swap shop items
-
Yep, the normal paypal account - which I thought was on here somewhere, but Lisa couldnt' find it yesterday, so dont ask me what it actually is!! I leave that side up to Kelly!! Raffle will be drawn at the end of tomorrows funday, I will accept pledges, but if you pledge, win and dont pay, it will be redrawn.
Hannah, if you have paypal that is the best way - while we can accept cheques, if you only want a ticket or 2, at £1 a go, it might not be worth you writing a cheque for it!! But if you want to, do feel free.
Thanks for all your support guys, as tomorrow is a charity day, with mainly animal charities, I suspect Bagpuss will go down well, I just wish I had thought of asking the woman at work who was impressed if she wanted to buy a ticket!!
-
i do have paypal!!
i just need to find the adress somewhere..... then do i pm you to say i've bought a couple....??
sorry, i think i'm being difficult - but not meaning to be i promise!!! ;D
-
Des will send through £5 now through paypal for tickets.
The Paypal addy is donations@catactiontrust1977.co.uk. Log on to your paypal account, go to send money and enter that addy in to the send to box.
-
Thanks Tan - the plan is for me to write names on the back of raffle tickets tomorrow, to make sure they are included, so could people pm me with how many they have bought, so I can make up a list tonight of how many I need to include? I shall be leaving the house at 8.30 in the morning though, I will check this thread before going.
-
Done Des
Sent £5 through. Very best for morrows fundraising hun xxx
-
Excellent tan, you are on the list. Tis always good to have money before you start the fundraiser.
-
okey dokey, thanks tan and desley
£5 sent xxx
-
£5.00 sent too via Paypal.
-
Cheers - my neighbours have given me £4 towards it too, I love this business of raising money without leaving the house!!
-
Had a really good day today, we raised £154.50, I was hoping for £150 at each fundraiser, so defo achieved it. My neighbours won the raffle, which I am quite pleased about, saves me having to package it up to send!! We got the RSPCA lady to pick for us, to make it fair.
-
Excellent news Desley.
I had to travel to Leeds today and on returning saw the sign for Shaw and thought We would come along to support you, alas drove round couldnt find you so came home, looked at forum to find you were in Bury, how stupid am I ?
My thoughts were with you at least.xxx
-
Thanks T, shame we weren't in Shaw today, would have been lovely to see you. Thanks for the thought though.
-
Glad it went well, Desley! Excellent fundraising result. You must be tired but happy.
-
Im glad it went so well. It sounds like a lot of money so well done
love
Tab

i am slightly tired actually C, it was worse when the alarm went off at 6.30, I couldnt' figure out why!! Yet yesterday, when I didn't have to get up early, I Was wide awake at 5.30 and couldnt get back to sleep!!
It was a lot of money Tab, much better than the charity market in Nov, we didn't take the amount we have done today the whole of the weekend!!
It is a shame in a way that we had a fundraiser this weekend, or we could have auctioned bagpuss off longer on here.
