IdeaWarz - ShopWisely
Next time you see a take a penny, leave a penny tray, leave a penny, but make sure you drop a buck or two in the tray labeled “Blind Kids” also. If only there was an easier way to pay-it-forward while burning our hard earned cash. Well, thanks to some refined ingenuity, we welcome ShopWisely.
Chrischen wants to make it easy to support charities while you shop. In contrast to many other fund raising schemes, his site, ShopWisely won’t charge any fees!
For the online shopper who wants to make the most out of their money, ShopWisely is a nonprofit service that allows online shoppers to support other nonprofits by shopping online.. Unlike most “give while you shop” sites our product (service) routes 100% of the proceeds and releases all financial information to the public.
Chrischen is second time lucky with this idea - his first attempt at IdeaWarz wasn’t so successful. A lot of work has been done on this idea in the meantime, and a ShopWisely toolbar is in the works.
If you’d like to offer insight, or lend a hand in this fundraising shopping site, give Chrischen a shout.
Lights, camera, achtung!
So while Gord is lapping up the rays down in Cuba, he’s handed the big shoes over to Bob to handle the blog in the meantime. That was right about the time that Bob started growing new pimples, losing more hair and referring to himself in the third person. Here’s my crack at IdeaWarz, phew, it ain’t easy being G.
Until next week: Share your ideas. Give us your gnarly and snarly feedback… Take a look through Cambrian House Bazaar and Forums for projects to assist in…
And… May the Best Idea… WIN!

I would like to clarify that the take a penny leave a penny tray is sort of a bad analogy since the merchants at ShopWisely.org pay the contribution. You, the shopper, pays nothing extra. Thanks for the blog and video about it!
