I love my socks, I really do.  But there are some that I hardly wear and feel that it's time to sock em' to some other luckier owners :) I've got two here; one which Ronald would die to have and another, an electrifying blue that absolutely zaps when paired with black ;)

Colour and design: 1) Red and white stripes, cotton, slightly below the knee and 2) Electric blue, nylon, over-the-knee length.
Condition: 7/10

What to do with used 'ang pow'?

If you're an avid traveller, then this is the perfect idea for you.  I usually keep all my notes and coins in the same pouch.  Albeit organised, but still cumbersome when I have to pick out the right currency when I'm beckoned to travel.  I keep the Japanese Yen in a separate wallet altogether to save trouble, but the rest was just... :S urgh, especially when it's difficult to differentiate between Cambodian and Thai coins :P

So, here you go.  I'm reusing the 'ang pow' packets from last Chinese New Year to categorise them into countries.  The packets are deep enough to also keep coins, so there you go :) No more picking the wrong notes and getting stranded in a foreign land!

*tada*

New business model.

Hi everyone,

Just a quick update.  As of March 17th, 2012, we've decided to split the sales proceed to 70:30.  70% of the proceeds will be used for charity while 30% will be used to cover any operational fee to maintain this project.  To be honest with you, I'm not sure if this is an optimum split, but we will see.  As we've discussed before, in order for this project to grow into long-term sustainability, it cannot survive on 100% donation.  I hope you guys understand and will continue supporting The Good Samaritan's vision :) I'm thinking of revamping the website to optimize its array of wonderful products-for-a-good-cause.  So I hope if sales are good, we'll get to redesign this website faster.  But if you're a Good Samaritan yourself and would like to donate your skills to us, we'll be eternally grateful! :D Please be in touch!

Also, I've updated my cause here if you want to check it out.  But, what doesn't change is transparency :) Thanks much guys!
