Congratulations to RetailmeNot.com on winning our Affiliate Summit East T-Shirt charity auction. The final bid came in at just over $11,000.00.

The money will be donated to the Lincoln Nebraska People’s City Mission.

RetailMeNot.com is a coupon website (and a really good one at that) that indexes web sites and coupons for them. It then uses social features (commenting/user voting) to keep the quality very high.

I put in several websites (including my own) and it pulled up some very accurate information.

I would like to thank all of the companies who participated in my shirt charity auction. You guys are great!!!!!

And make sure you go and check out retailmenot !!!!!!!!

They’re making a killing..

$11K is like 11 minutes of revenue to them.

Win-win for both parties.

Yes they are certainly big name and that much revenue is just matter of fraction of seconds.

Nice to see they come and join this noble cause.

This is a win for charity.

Love the idea of auctioning off your shirt space. Sounds like a good charity too. Next time I think we need to go all out, price for the shirt space, auction off the space on your butt, sides of the shoes, and premium space, a removable tattoo on the back of your head. You will look like an indy car!

What a lovely idea to benefit needy folks. Perhaps next year there can be a contest with a choice garment to be worn by Jeremy and his nanny and we can see who gets the highest bid:)

Nice bid price for the weekend. Are you going to wear the same t shirt the entire weekend or do you get different varieties that you can swap.

That is very generous from all parties concerned. Shoe for putting his body on the line, and Retail Me Not for donating $11,100-00 to charity for the priviledge. That is a very sweet number, ain’t it?
