Blogathon 2006: Fire Ant Schwag

I've added a couple of new products to the Gazette's CafePress Store in honor of Blogathon 2006. One is a classy framed ceramic tile; the other is a black (!) t-shirt specially cooked up for Blogathon:

I plan to give away one of each of these items as prizes during Blogathon, along with coffee mugs, tile coasters (unframed), iTunes gift certs, and other miscellaneous stuff, but if you want to announce to the world that you're a Gazette Blogathon supporter, feel free to order a t-shirt. I've got them priced with zero markup, so you pay what I pay. The only caveat is that CafePress is experimenting with the black apparel -- it apparently requires a different printing process -- and I've never seen the actual product. I have one on order and hope to have it before the 29th.

By the way, I see that among pledges via the Gazette, Sticky Doorknobs, and theBrew, the current total for Midland Fair Havens is just under $2,500. Excellent! There's still plenty of time to make a pledge, and every pledge is important. The preceding links will take you directly to the associated "make a pledge" page on the official Blogathon website.

Dang it...all I got last year was an UN-framed ceramic tile. I'm stoked though. I'm going for the shirt this time.

The framed tiles are new to the CafePress inventory, so nobody had them last year. Good luck in scoring a shirt.

I'm planning on having a non-Blogathon black T as soon as the event is over. CafePress won't let you have the same product with different graphics unless you upgrade to a "premium store," which is $60/year. Considering that I haven't sold $60 worth of merchandise total in three years*, that's not going to happen!

*Other than to myself, of course.

That's awesome news about the total! I was having a looksee last night and saw you were doing well!

Over $2,000! That's impressive!

Nice t-shirt, too. Oh look. Today's payday....hmm...
