Just wanted to say I'm running a fundraising event for my wedding next month. With every $5 you donate to help I'll send you a shiny new white yarisworld.com decal. I'm having to finance almost the entire thing myself so I need all the help I can get. Also in my store I do have some other colors available for $3.50. Thanks everyone!! Also if you wish to make a small donation but don't want/need a decal there is another category to do so. :smile:

Congratulations but I think it's bad taste to ask for money to fund you're wedding. But that's my opinion.

It didn't seem to me that he was asking for opinions on the matter. :rolleyes:

^ LOL. You already did. It's bad taste to repeat yourself. :biggrin:

Considering that Astroman has moderated here for free since the very beginning (which includes nearly every one of my posts, and every one of yours), I'm happy to contribute a little something to the guy's marital future.

Thank you so much Garm! Were asking for donations because I'm financing this almost entirely by myself and could really use all the help I can get. Things were pretty rough for me a three years ago and I came within $400 of loosing everything and I had ever worked for. I now work for myself and have been making steady gains with each year being better than the last.

So I don't feel bad or in poor taste at all. After spending the past 5 years here and wanting to offer the opportunity for those whom I have made friends with thanks to the Yaris and this forum to say congrats about my upcoming wedding and offering a way for them to send a small gift (with the option of a coveted white decal :smile:) Just thought it would a fun way to share my life with a community that has always been there for me through thick and thin.

Garm, I'm updating my first post now with me and my future bride, along with a actual shot of the decal that will be mailed as a thank you for those who want one.

Thank you everyone for your kind words and support!! I'll be shipping out any decals that have been ordered so far Thursday and/or Friday :thumbup:

Thursday I'm taking off to take care of wedding planning, and get our marriage license at the courthouse. Already got her wedding ring ordered, just need to get sized for mine. After the wedding were driving to Las Vegas for the honeymoon. First road trip in the Yaris as a married couple :biggrin:

Oops, didn't see the deadline.

I bought one anyways. Just so you know, didn't see shipping cost. You should always add shipping even if you're sending with a $0.46 cent stamp. Helps your bottom line. I think you should keep selling to pay for the kids. Lol.

Also, I can help you with hats. Will give you wholesale, and you sell at whatever you need to payoff the wedding bills.

Congratulations to the both of you. You look very happy. Remember, do what she says and you'll last forever. Tell her to let you think you're the boss.

Hey I like that idea. My supplier basically isn't fullfilling my need for decals (I was doing these myself then lost access to the plotter). If you'd like to take over as my supplier I'd be happy to work something out! I love the hat idea too.

Oops, haven't been back in a few days. Studying a jQuery book and couldn't get a sample program to work. Finally did it.

Anyhow I visit your site and contact you. Ordered a decal from you and hasn't come in. That's okay though cause I can make my own, but more concerned with help out on your wedding. Even though it was only a little.

Did you order the red one? ecrater glitched and said I still had some left. I wanted to offer you the option of picking another color or a refund. Check your email you made the payment from for details.
