Ok, by a show of mouse clicks, how many of you plan to do some Christmas shopping online. I'd say that a fair few of us do this. In fact, I know we do! Eighty-five percent of all internet users are also internet shoppers, according to a May 2010 survey.
So, how can you continue to do your shopping AND raise funds for Dogs Trust as the same time for no extra cost to you? How, you ask? With Easy Fundraising!
Easy Fundraising provide a FREE service where you can shop with your favourite online stores and at no extra cost raise funds for any charity, good cause or group you choose to support. You still shop directly with each retailer as you would normally, but simply by using the links from the Easy Fundraising site first, each purchase you make will generate a cashback donation to the cause you wish to support.

They explain:
"For example, spend £25 with WH Smith and 3.5% will be donated. You will have raised £0.88, at no extra cost to your purchase. Make any purchase from Amazon and 2.5% will be donated. Insure your car with Direct Line and raise £35.00, or purchase a mobile phone from O2 and earn £17.50, and so on."
The site is great because you can shop with 2000+ brand name retailers and to raise funds you just use the links from their site first - it's that simple! It just serves as a portal, so if you ALREADY shop online, why not help Dogs Trust at no extra cost from purchases you would make anyway.
Go on, at least check it out! I promise it won't exhaust you as much as that little guy in the photo!

Pawfect werk from a border terrier! Woof
This is a good tool to know! It's great to see new fundraising initiatives popping up everywhere. We're FUNdraising at gameraise.com for the charity of your choice through an online rock concert game. Good to see everybody is getting creative. Keep up the amazing work you're doing!
If you're a regular online shopper then this is a great tool. I signed up and used the easyfundraising registration yesterday and started using the service properly today. It's great to see some extra benefit from the shopping I would have normally done!
