Simply go to www.easyfundraising.org.uk/uk/pni and register. Select your chosen charity (pni org uk) and then use the site to get discounts off services & products available on the internet. Works both ways - you get discounts and we get a set donation or percentage donation to this forum. Many retailers on there that we all use day to day including - ebay, skype, plus florists, cd suppliers, health & beauty (including herbal remedies), utility service providers, credit cards, loans, etc etc please check it out - if you're planning on buying anything online there may be a discount to be had and donation our way - thanks so much. There are also retailers offering free donations if you sign up to free trials etc - please check the small print if accepting any offers. Please note you are under no obligation whatsoever to make use of this arrangement. It is simply another way of raising the profile of pni org uk and also some funds along the way.

Do you use ebay? For each bid placed on ebay through www.easyfundraising.org.uk 5p gets donated to PNI ORG UK. Worth remembering - simply register an account with www.easyfundraising.org.uk and click on the link under retailers to go to the ebay website - works just the same way as usual.

Hi Yoyo
Do you have to register with ebay through easyfunding site or can you just go and access ebay through the site but use your own ebay registration.

If you're not registered already with ebay you get a bonus donation for doing it via the site but if you're already registered if you just go to ebay via the site and bid you still get the 5p donation on each bid (doesn't have ot be a winning one either). Hope that helps x

Hi Yoyo
i have used ebay and another shop through easy funding site do you know if the money comes here automatically or do i have to do some sort of transfer. Its not a lot of money at the moment but its certainly a good idea.

That's great - I too have been bidding via the site so between us all we may have raised a tidy sum.
You don't need to do anything to ensure the money comes here - all money raised via the site for pni org uk by all users is counted each quarter and a cheque is issued. I think July will be the first one. Will keep you posted on here as to amounts etc - at the moment the amount is around £4.50 which isn't bad as we've not been signed up long and some of the money takes up to 30 days to appear in the raised funds x
Thanks for the support x

I signed up - and bought a new monitor from MISCO
Needed one with all this time I am spending on the PC as my eyes are going funny so I needed a bigger screen....
But this is a great idea as if I did it right a percentage will go to PNI ORG and I did not have to do anything except buy something I was going to buy anyway!!!
I am just hoping I did it right as it has not registered yet on my account at easy fund raising - but I guess it will take ea few hours at least??

Hi again,
Just to check- I can get to Ebay to make a bid through 'easyfundrasing.co.uk' to get the donation for PNI.ORG?
Just thought I'd check before I went for that handbag

Hi Hopeful
Like me your up late !! I have to go to bed now though its too late for me - are you OK?
I think you just register and then go to ebay though the easy fund-raising web site
but I do not really know as I do not know even if I bought the monitor in the right way to actually pay to wards us ..
i expect Yoyo can answer us in the morning!!

Hi Vee
I think you're right - access e-bay thru the fundraising site itself. I'll try it. I do use e-bay quite a bit and have meant to sign up for a while. Finally found an hour!
Thanks x
