I just would really never do it. We do get quite a bit of money from local businesses and the local stores give us great discounts. This is more extra than anything else. My wife has more kids this year and we are a little short. If nothing else, I will dip into my tree cutting money.

Maybe next year i will setup something for Vickie where if you want to, you can donate money. I guess not asking you guys for money is kind of the way I am built. Nothing wrong with it for the right Charity and this the type that would qualify but...I just can't do it.

Just if you shop Amazon, even after Christmas, use
http://www.christmas-vacation.com to get there. If money comes in after Christmas, it will go into the Charities account for next year.

She started this with the $300 the American Legion donated and the $10k I donated. I just think since it's for local kids, we should get the donations locally.
