As some of you may know I donated a canvas to charity for an auction run on Facebook.
Well I was just looking at the page and the woman who's running things is putting some stuff up for sale at stupidly low prices. For example a woman's hoodie from new look for £1, a dvd for £1 etc a woman's dress for £2.
Obviously these things are selling within 20 mins because they're so cheap so I simply suggested that she ran an auction for all the items, that way she will probably make more money.
She took offence to this and basically said this is her page and she'll run it how she likes and everyone is very happy with their bargains.
I said, "fair enough, but charity isn't about bargains, it's about making as much money as possible."
That didn't go down well either.
It's good she's doing something for charity, but it's a shame she's not doing it in a way which would raise the most money. It's almost like she's started a charity page so she can get free stuff from other people and sell it to her minky mates for sweet fuck all.

I dont get involved with charities. Too much hassle and do gooder cunts.
My last working hour of the year goes to macmillan but thats all.done through the wages people so I have no involvement.

It's at £6 at the moment , but it's running until the 19th of July so it'll go up.
If not i'll buy it back for £7 and sell it 
I just sold the other one for £35.

Yeah, that's Stoney. Just infront of my favourite pub 
Would you just want a poster style print which you could frame if you wanted, or a boxed canvas?
A 60x80cm print would be £25.
A 2ft x 3ft canvas would be about £40.
