Who's Ready to Earn Some Crop Cash?

I'm still stuffed up, but I'm feeling like I'm coming back to the land of the living!  And, I'm getting BACK into Retreat Mode!  Which means only one thing.....

CROP CASH OPPORTUNITY FOR YOU!!!!

Can I get a WOOHOO!!!  (I said woohoo, NOT  "It's ABOUT TIME!")

Let's talk SNACKS!  I know that's MY favorite subject!  This is something I've done since my first retreat and it works so well, it has become a permanent part of the event.  We get such a variety this way and the homemade stuff is always so yummy!

I will have coffee and iced tea 24/7.  There will be sugar, regular creamer and sweetener available.  There is an unlimited supply of ice.  Also, just FYI, I am going to have fresh fruit brought in each morning along with breakfast juices.  And don't forget the hotel has a free continental breakfast available to us.  PLUS, in the next day or so, I will be posting our menu.  I almost have it complete and ready to publish!

For those of you who have been to one of my retreats, you already know the drill, but we have a lot of first-timers, so I'm going to explain.  (by the way this will go out in email format, too, so don't freak if you start getting overloaded with info from me.  I just want to be sure everyone gets the information... wouldn't want to leave ANYONE out!)

You can earn CROP CASH by bringing some/one of the following.  You can choose to bring something from any one category or from as many as you like.  I would REALLY appreciate knowing ahead of time what you will be bringing, so, in addition to the CROP CASH you will earn from the items themselves, you will earn $100 JUST for posting what you plan to bring here OR by sending me an email (and then I will come on here and post for you).  Does that make sense?  If not... ASK ME PLEASE!  Last year, we ran low on a couple of areas and heaven forbid, we run low on snacks!


Homemade Snack - $50
Store Bought Snack - $50
Chocolate - $10 - $50, depending on quality and quantity!
Soda/Beverages - $20 per liter

You will earn your "Food CROP CASH" when you check in at the Retreat.  Get creative!  This can be SO much fun!

Be watching for more posts coming very soon!


Oh... Happy Snowy Spring!

Well, it's more than the Spring Crud...

I gave in.  Finally.  And went to the doctor this morning.  It's a sinus infection and an upper respiratory infection.  Great.  At least, that explains why I haven't been getting better.  So... after a big ole' shot in the backside, a script of Z-Pack and Cough Syrup with Codeine along with some Mucinex... oh and off work til Thursday... I am good to go!  To bed... for now, anyway.  I'll sleep a little and think of some fun CROP CASH OPPORTUNITY I can come up with when I get up later on.  Night, night....

The Spring Crud Hit ME!

Sorry I haven't posted all week.  I've been down with the Spring Crud!  Chest wheezing, cough, sneezing, runny nose... you know that Crud I'm talking about!  I wish it would go away!  I think I'm on the back side of it, though, so be watching for a CROP CASH OPPORTUNITY in the next day or so!  I may not be posting, but I'm THINKING RETREAT!

What a BUSY Day This has Been!

And it's all been spent on WORKING ON THE RETREAT!  There were 4 of us who flat turned out the goods today!  I think you are going to LOVE what you find your CROP CASH in this year!  And the auction items/prizes continue to grow.  My goody bag stuff should be in by the end of the week (did I tell you it is going to be over $40 in STUFF!).  One of our technique projects are all cut and ready to go.  Name Tags are done.  My house is a wreck, but WHO CARES!!!!  It is in RETREAT MODE, too!

No CROP CASH this time... but thanks for reading!

Right Here... This is It!

This is where you need to post a comment and say... "I Can Blog!" and earn $50 in CROP CASH!

If you are here and you can't post a comment, send me an email at jmpurves@mchsi.com and tell me!  You can earn $50 in CROP CASH by doing that, too!  You just can't earn it twice by doing both!!!  I know you people!  You'll do anything to get some money!

And if you can't figure out how to "Follow" or Subscribe, let me know that, too.

And if you simply don't want to play, that is just fine, too!  I would just like to know so I can MOVE ON!!!  And get to some serious CROP CASH giving away!!!

Are You Planning Yet?

So, are you planning what you are going to be working on yet?  It's never too early to start doing that, you know!  If you are one who wants to get lots of pages done, you can pick out your paper and everything you need to finish that page and stack it together.  And then gather just the tools you need to work on those.  How efficient!  I saw someone get 60 pages done on those 4 days!  I was SO impressed!

But if you are one who really likes the social aspect of a retreat, you may want to plan and pack a little lighter!  Take some cards or a special project.  At least that way, you will feel like you got something accomplished!

CROP CASH OPPORTUNITY!

Leave a comment and tell what your plans are.  Don't worry, no one is going to hold you to it!  It's just a way to earn $200 in CROP CASH!!  Plus you might motivate someone else! 

Have a great Monday!

Here's MY List - Whadya Think!?!

Ummmm... Paper Packs, Storage, Ribbon, Tombows, Stamps and Stickles, Alcohol Inks and maybe a Jukebox... Oh..oh... oh.... what about a Clip it Up or a Bind It All or maybe even a BIG SHOT!  What would you think about THAT KIND OF STUFF!!!!!  AAAHHHHH.... I'm just sayin'!

Oh, and guess what else.... I'm printing more CROP CASH this weekend!!!  I was talking to Sheri at the ScrapNook today and I get the feeling she may be digging into my stash again.  So, I need to be prepared!  And it will just be incentive to give away MORE!  And with what all is lining up for auction items... we are going to need a TON of CROP CASH!  Can I just start right now by saying... NO FIGHTING LADIES.... NO FIGHTING!!!!
