    "Did a quick search and did not find" seems a phrase entirely too common on these boards.
    Do the search tools need an overhaul?

    I admit, I find it more effective to use Google when searching TFW2005 threads... :redface2:

    Maybe i'm reading it wrong...its says 20$ for each sale.So you pay full price and they take 20 out of it? I don't have a CC,so i couldn't get in on the BBTS thing.

    My understanding was that BBTS would donate $20 wholesale value for each preorder. So basically I figured they would donate excess stock they have on hand and write the donation off against Cost of Goods Purchased. It's a tax writeoff for them I believe. They won't actually be spending any new money, just donating the wholesale value to Toys for Tots.

    So say they pay $8 for an item they have in stock and sell it for $15, they would write off the cost not the sales price.
