Go Green Giveaway #4!!!

Here is our 4th giveaway for our go green event.
It is sponsored by Beth from http://jusshar.etsy.com

This is some information provided by Beth about her item she is giving away:
"This yarn is made using a clean, no longer wanted T-shirt. I haven't pulled it into cord yet. It will be up to you how you want to attach the breaks. It's probably not an equal WPI throughout as it's hand cut, but it's close. Very eco-friendly."

GO GREEN SALES!! #2

Here is the second group of people who are having sales during our Go Green Event. Tomorrow is earth day so enjoy these great sales till tomorrow. Remember to put the "ETTGREEN"receive the amazing discounts!

Go Green tip of the day: When moving a house, apartment, classroom etc. from one place to another stop into your local book stores, coffee shops, or malls. Most of these places get shipments on certain days. Ask to speak to the manager or floor supervisor. 95% of the time they are happy to put the boxes aside to help you move instead of just throwing it into the dumpster. Also check out your local craigslist where people list free (or for a lower cost than your local moving company store) cardboard boxes/shipping materials.
I can tell you from my friends and personal experience this is where you can save lots of money and help the environment! ~Jen
