$100

 Also, I for one would like to contribute even if I don't win. Is there some way we can facilitate this as well?

 Thanks but I was looking at the idea that maybe more would want to kick in regardless of outcome and donate together as group, like the Cigars for Troops idea.

$150.00 Canadian  :biggrin:

What is that $140 USD plus a moose?

I'll do what I will and I'll drink what I please
I'll smoke what I like 'till I cough and I wheeze
I'll drink and I'll whore and every pleasure realize
For this time tomorrow I may die

Now were getting somewhere! This is awesome..... And we have plenty of time to show pics of the added items and watch the bids move as well!
BOTL - is the power to give!
Brad - anyway we can also tie in a way to your PayPal acct to allow BOTL to donate if they wanted? Just a thought....
I have 2 kids myself so I know while a little can go a long way, allot can reach no end to blessing a family in need!
This is awesome guys! Brad I'm adding more to my box. I may not get it shipped till the first of the week so I'll update an add a pic of what's being added to the lot!
Please excuse my Bipolar.........

Brad, PM me ur account info.  Been too active buying lately so this is gonna get too rich for me, but I wanna send a little along to help the cause.  No kid should miss out on Christmas.  God bless you guys for doing such a wonderful thing.

Once the funds are collected, they will be sent to Señor Pablo so the donation can be made on behalf of the Cigar Geeks community.


In addition to Mpurtle01's current high bid, these Geeks have offered additional contributions to support Toys for Tots!
