Congratulations to the entire CAG community as we beat our goal of $40,000, raising a whopping $42,810! Thanks to all who participated including our great corporate sponsors Play-Asia, Telltale Games (Tales of Monkey Island), Capcom (Dark Void), and Blueberry Muffin Tops Cereal.

Original post
In 2008, CAGs raised over $32,000 (up from $27K in 2007) for Penny Arcade's Child's Play charity. This year, let's see if we can hit $40,000 before the year is through.

For every $5 donated via PayPal through the CAG ChipIn system, you will receive one entry into a raffle to win a $500 Amazon Gift Certificate or other great prizes! Last year, the CAG Community donated some really cool and generous prizes and I'm sure the tradition will continue this year. I expect the prize list to grow and grow until the very end of the fundraiser.

You must donate through the ChipIn system or your raffle entry will not register. Use any of the ChipIn links in this post or the widget below. Just click the "ChipIn" button to donate. Donations are accepted via PayPal and go directly to Child's Play. ChipIn tracks our donations as a group, but the money is immediately deposited into Child's Play's PayPal account.

[quote name='hockey0707']Sweet actually won 2 things this year. Thanks again guys can't wait to donate again in 2010[/QUOTE]I noticed that there were a few names that came up more than once on the prize winners list. Now that's luck (or a less than perfect randomizer program) Hope that didn't sound like sour grapes; I certainly didn't mean it that way. Congrats to all the winners, and also to CAG as a whole for such a huge success. :applause:
 
[quote name='shrike4242']Note to self for future prize offerings with quantity of greater than 3, when sourcing the items from Amazon.

Apparently, the Xbox Live 1600 points card via electronic delivery is sold out. So, yes, Amazon is sold out of a virtual item. :whistle2:s

Ordering the physical cards for shipment (thank you Amazon Prime) worked, up until the point I needed to order the fourth card. As I find out, Amazon limits you to three 1600 points cards per account, permanently. Not per day, per week, per month, per year, per account. Period.

So, as I call them to try and work past this issue, they instructed me to make a new account with a new email address, so I could buy the three other cards. :whistle2:s

In the future, if you plan to offer more than three copies of a prize and plan to order it from Amazon, check with them in advance and make sure you can order more than three of them.

As an aside, aclayton and Whitefeet, I'll be PMing you shortly to ask for you shipping information for the cards, if you don't PM me in the meantime.[/QUOTE]
That is absolutely ridiculous on Amazon's part. Did they give you any reasoning as to why you can only buy 3 points cards ever? I mean really, you could walk into Walmart and buy a dozen right now. It makes no sense...

I told them repeatedly that there's nothing on the product page to indicate that I could only buy three of them.

Check it out for yourself:
http://www.amazon.com/Xbox-360-Live-1600-Points/dp/B000B9RI14/

The only possible indication that I could only buy three in one sitting is the limitation in the drop-down picklist, which only shows 1, 2 or 3. Nothing obvious, since I wouldn't consider that obvious.

If Amazon is telling me to make another account, then I'd say they're giving me a pass to make another account.
 
Wut?! O_O I just ordered 1 earlier this week, so I have 2 left? Thanks for the heads up, I'll only get it again when they have a crazy sale......

Congrats to the winners! Another great year by all of us cheap asses! :)
Looking at other drives this year - I have to say this is by far one of the most charitable!

I think you made a mistake. The 1600 card goes to 30 in the drop down box. The 4000 point card only goes to 3 though. Both cards are on the same page so maybe you click the wrong one.
