*LIVE* Brian's 2008 Stimulus Give Away **CLOSED**

Quick simple rules:
1. You can only select one item in Group A as I think these would be the most popular and I'd like to be fair.
2. You can select a MAX total of five (5) items from the list (example, 1 from Group A and 4 from Group B, or all five (5) from Group B).
3. First come, first served (in case of a tie, I will randomly pick the board member).
4. Again, this is a fun give a way, no drama or the juju will be cast on you.
5. Just post what you want and I'll try to update the list as soon as possible (I have my kids this weekend so I'm going to be busy).
6. I'll PM people afterwards to get your mailing address.

Group A.

1. 08 A&G David Ortiz Mini GU #AGR-DO1

    << <i>Never received a PM on these boards before, do I need to do something to receive one? Like a setting or something? >>



    Looks like your PM is on. The pad;ock just under the CU logo at the top left should flash when you have a new PM.
  • I haven't had a chance to send out PM's yet. I'm sending out the pm's soon. If you don't want to wait, just shoot me your addy now and I'll sort through them.
    Thanks.
