Linking the Store with Donations

February 2, 2010 1:34:54 PM

I propose that in order to generate more possible funds towards the VE we link the profit the VE gains from a purchase at the store (A shirt, cup, etc.) to a persons total donation sum. When I have the extra money I donate, but I was looking at buying a shirt and I thought it would be great to have your donation amount go up as a sorta little bonus.

So after talking with some others it occurred to me I need to provide an example.

Say the shirt costs $20 and the VE profits $5, then $5 could be added to your donate total.

Would have to look at how many people actually buy the store stuff before deciding this is worth the effort on Tal or Kad's end.

I'm predicting sales are low, if existent at all, if I'm completely honest.

as I said it could be used to give more motivation for purchasing things. Some people might not have a problem giving money for a shirt, but donating out right may not appeal to them. Obviously the VE would benefit less, but at the same time so would you for donating less.
