Hello bX. Tony made a post about his cherished Darth Vader piggy bank that was stolen from the great party they hosted (and SCAA) in Chicago last weekend. For those of us who were there and I'm sure had our share of booze and fun, I have a request ...

If enough of us can pitch in, I'll organize the purchase and shipping of a new Darth Vader piggy bank, courtesy of the Barista Exchange family.

Try this link: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_butt...

... I think $50 will cover the purchase and shipping and I'll post when we reach it.

Tony, which bank was it?

or


Tony, thanks for the great party. We'll see if we can help! :)

- Matt

I think we may be close to having enough. Can those of you who tried to donate, try again? I'll try to get it ordered today.
