Hey, guys.

Welp, I'm officially a couple hundred dollars short of a digi cam, LOL... So, I was thinking of raising some funds- perhaps through here. No, I'm not asking for mere donations, but... How do Sitcomsonline bracelets sound to you guys? For both men and women, of course.

I was thinking of something light blue and white- like this site's theme, and then the letters "SO" incoporated into it. (Or maybe no letters? Your choice.) - ranging from 6.75 - 8 inches.

I don't know, I guess you can wear them as SO-Pride. :lol: Or maybe... one day, you will meet someone wearing that same bracelet and then go, "Hey! You're from SO??? ME TOO! :eek:." (Hey, it could happen!)

So, I'm wondering, how many of you would be interested in purchasing them IF I were to start selling them? (Please take the poll, also). I'm thinking for starters- $12 [edited] (I know you're all gasping now, LOL.) But these DO take a long time to make... and I DO have to purchase the beads before anything else...and I vow to hand-pick all and only the best beads out there. (From uptown Manhattan). Not some cheap stuff from the 99 Cents store, LOL. Moreover, TJ has agreed to allow me to donate a portion of my profits to The American Red Cross (or some other charity effort) for every bracelet sold... since I will be using SO's name/theme.

So yeah... any ideas as to how this should look? Design ideas? For both sexes?

Tell me this isn't a crazy idea? :lol:

Thanks in advance, everyone, and TJ, also for granting me permission to do this.

-Jen :D

I like that idea! Barwars should get one, so if we happen to run into each other at a mall or something, we can scream like little girls. :lol:

I wouldn't want a bracelet, but I would like something with Sitcoms Online on it. A refrigerator magnet, mouse pad, pencil cup....something for my computer desk. What I really would love is a SO mug. I have mugs from all the plays I've seen, Red Sox, and my *politics* mug. I have a mug from FreeRepublic.com and it's personalized with my name on it.

A Christmas tree ornament or decoration might be a good idea.

I don't know if this helps you any Jen. I know jewelry is your art, but if you could expand it to other things, I most certainly would buy something. I'd love to help you out, and I like donating to charity. :)

Wow, Janice!! You've made some pretty good suggestions! TJ mentioned the mugs, too. Okay, so we have:

magnet
mouse pad
pencil cup

But, see, all of the above- I have to be dependent on another source, such as Kinkos or something, and I sort of don't want that. I would like to depend on myself. :D

Christmas ornament (very good idea!) But... any takers?

How about..... t-shirts??? :lol:

I love the idea

Put me down for one. ;) I love angels if that matters.

I think it's a great idea.

See, I don't want my friends and family to know I post at a place called "Sitcoms Online." This is kind of my secret hideout, so for me, advertising it is out of the question.

This reminds me of Nate's post when he wanted us to donate $2500 to him for that plane ticket to England. :lol:

How about a pair of underwear with Sitcoms Online written on the back? :lol: Nobody, well family anyway, will see it. I wouldn't recommend the lettering done in beads though.


And this is my secret hideout too. Only my husband knows about it.

;)

:bighug:

Oh, btw, now... I am thinking of something a bit smaller and cheaper... how do Sitcomsonline pencils sound??? LOL. I can get pencils personalized.

I like the t-shirts idea. That would be cool. My parents know I come to this site, but other than that it's also my secret hideout. :D

Transit Whiz that is a great idea.
I want a Sitcoms Online lunchbox. That way I can tote candy and can cokes into my living room when I am watching my sitcoms.

I love the idea. Sitcoms Online Merchandise sounds great.

How many of you would be interested in Sitcomsonline pencils? Kind of like those shown in this picture... only in blue and with the words "SitcomsOnline.com" wirtten on it? If they were to sell, I would sell them in packets of 5 at $6.50... in which $1 would AUTOMATICALLY be donated to the American Red Cross... and shipping would be "free." (Actually, it's included in the price, LOL). If I have takers that will add up to 20 packets, then, I can sell these. :D Just 20! LOL.


Julian: I don't think I can do lunchboxes, sorry, LOL.
Janice: I will have to think about how to put together an angel.
Crystals: The problem with the t-shirts is that they will be quite pricey to make. And I'm not sure how much people are willing to spend. Otherwise, i think it's a good idea, too, LOL. As of now, I think pencils will win over 'cause they are rather cheap, convenient, easy, yaddie yah, LOL. T-shirts, I really like, tho.

Gotta admit it Jen...not loving the pencil idea. I rarely use a pencil. A pen would work better for me or even a keychain.

Pencils sound like a sweet idea.

How about these other ideas
Sitcomsonline pullover- In gray,blue or red
Teddy Bears with the SO Logo
paper clips
post it notes

STAPLERS!!!!! :grr:

Sounds like a great idea...But why stop at just SO Merchandise?

I Think It would also be great if you had Member Merchandise!

I Mean, Come On....A Chad Doody T-Shirt would make a PERFECT Christmas Gift!

Anyways, I don't think I'd wear a bracelet, but a pencil/pen type thing would be nice.

Something SO-related, like barwars said a pencil or a pen, would be cool.

Sounds to me like pens/pencils are the winning vote thus far. I am leaning more towards the pen idea, tho for Janice, LOL. ;)

Option A: I'm thinking of something similiar to the one in the light, transulent blue below... with the words "Proud Member of Sitcoms Online" or maybe JUST "Sitcoms Online?" imprinted on it. They would sell in packets of 3 for $6.50 in which shipping would be free and $1 will be donated to the American Red Cross for each packet sold. I would need at least 25 takers (25 packets) before I can guarantee anything, tho. So... if anyone is interested- meaning, you are definitely going to purchase a packet (or more than one) if they went into effect, please say "I" so I can jot your username down. I need a guarantee that at LEAST 25 of these packets will be sold. Otherwise, I would be stuck with a gross of SO pens! :lol:

P.S. The intial poll is most probably not in effect anymore, LOL.

He said to donate a portion of it to a charity, instead- hence the American Red Cross. The donations will be given under his name. I am a member of the American Red Cross, by the way, so I am the most sincere and devoted to the cause. I can scan my ID if you don't believe me, LOL. In fact, here yah go, LOL. :lol:
