$10 Sale at Designgive

Until Monday, you can get any of the glorious goods over at Designgive for a mere $10. And it’s not just t-shirts—we’re also talkin’ about long-sleeve tees and even hoodies. Hoodies that are normally $25, now only $10! What a deal! The sale lasts until Monday, so get a move on.

Sale at Designgive

For each shirt you buy, Designgive will donate $1 to a charity of your choice. For the curious, here’s their list of supported charities: the American Diabetes Association, the American Cancer Society, UNICEF, the American Red Cross, the Make-a-Wish Foundation, ASPCA, and the Children with AIDS Charity.

innerTee Kids Inaugural Sale

To commemorate the opening of their new site, innerTee Kids are having a sale during their launch - just use code ‘robots’ for 20% off! As betrayed by their name, innerTee Kids is an offshoot of innerTee, but instead of having a mixing interface for custom designs, they offer a range of pre-mixed kid-friendly designs on children’s tees.

Doughnuts!

UPDATE: The doughnuts page works now! If this means nothing to you, read on.

Mmmmmm… I haven’t had a good, homemade doughnut in a really long time… I found this by following an ad through Project Wonderful; but that’s not important! What is important, as you may have guessed, is doughnuts!

Doughnuts! - Jade Parade
Doughnuts! $25 for half a batch (20-30 doughnuts + holes), $40 for a full one (40-50 doughnuts + holes) by Jade Parade

Besides being able to order fresh, homemade, delicious-looking (and presumably tasting!) doughnuts online, what makes Jade Parade’s victuals even more spectacular are the options:

half a batch or full
vegan or with dairy
topped with brown sugar, white sugar, powdered sugar, colored sugar, or nothing

That’s 20 options, all of which sound downright delectable! The ones in the picture above are a half batch of vegan doughnuts topped with brown sugar. Scrumptious! They look SO much better than the crummy mass-produced ones available at Dunkin’ Donuts or Krispy Kreme…

Expensiveness: $25/$40

P.S. She also sells Doughnuts for Human Rights on Etsy for $20; only half batches are available, but you get the same options and all of the profits go to Amnesty International!

P.P.S. I considered tying this in weakly with t-shirts… but doughnuts are significant enough to merit their own entry.

P.P.P.S. She has to be cool because she is studying anthropology (like me!) and classical languages (I took Latin for a pretty long time, and so did Greg!).

A Bunch of Awesome Sales

There are currently a bunch of great sales posted up at T Junction, which often has more-than-daily updates of t-shirt coupons, sales, and discount codes, so I thought I’d summarize some of my favorites here:

Uneetee: $12 off their Collections tees for 12 days

Oddica: $13 anniversary sale ends Tuesday night

Allmightys: All tees are € 18.00 until July 22nd

And those three are just the tip of the proverbial iceberg! T Junction has loads more discounts listed, and is constantly getting updated! It’s kind of like Samson, but instead of strength it has t-shirt sales, and instead of hair it has… bloggers?

“What, spell ‘Botton’ with a ‘K’? ‘Kotton’. Oh, thank you!”

Today’s featured t-shirt shop is called Kotton, and it comes direct to you from Germany! The label is brand-new, so there are only a few shirts up there right now, but I certainly likes what I sees.

Now, I’d normally link you directly to all the individual shirt pages, but since the site is all Flash-based, I can only send give you one URL: http://kotton.de. Don’t let that put you off, however; it’s definitely worth it to give the link a click and wander around for a bit.

Also, the site is currently only in German. Never fear, though—I’ve been assured that an English version will be available shortly (perhaps even as soon as one week!). Besides, I’m monolingual, and I had no problem navigating. Unless you look at a tab labeled “CONTAKT” and think to yourself, “Oh joy, that one will send me to the moon!”, I think you’ll be A.O.K. I believe in you!

However, seeing as how I don’t read German, I can’t give you too much more information about Kotton’s shirts, aside from saying that they look reeeeeeally nice. And to convince you of that, I’ll end this post with a series of pretty pictures—close-ups of their designs.

Fantastic Bonanza Free T-Shirt Contest VII: Fantastic Bonanza Vs. Mecha-Fantastic Bonanza

Sorry for the late update, folks! As is standard practice with most t-shirt blogs, we usually employ the services of our trusty Scribe-Droid for special occasions and contests like this. Long story short, it looks like he might have picked up a bit of polywater during his visit to Psi 2000 over the holiday “weekend.” I told him that weekends usually aren’t five days long, but you know those drunk robots — they never listen to reason.

Let’s you and me put that unpleasantness behind us as we congratulate this month’s big winner. It is the valiantly verbose Cliff with his comprehensive elemental analysis! As the response exceeds 250 words, and in the interest of conserving electronic paper, I won’t repost it here, but you should read it up at last month’s contest page.

Here’s the chance for the rest of you, then! Ready to win a fantastic free t-shirt of your very own? Either way, it is too late to say “no”:

You know, as a sentient sort of character indigenous to Fantastoi, fourth planet of the Bonanzar system, life rocks. It rocks hard. But those backwater chumps down on Earth, man — they don’t see what all the fuss is about. Well, you’ll show them! Tell us a little about Fantastoi — its ecology, its stylin’ trends, its solar cycles (if it even NEEDS a lame ol’ sun) — who knows! Well — you probably do, come to think of it.

Do not forget to provide a valid email address along with your response. If you do forget, I can’t be held responsible for the actions of Scribe-Droid Omicron.

Sneak Peek of New Upcoming Fantastic Bonanza T-Shirt Designs (and important polls regarding women’s t-shirts!)

Here are the sneak peeks of Fantastic Bonanza’s upcoming new releases (all of which are displayed below on women’s style t-shirts, which is important for the polls)! All of these designs will be printed on men’s/unisex styles on high-quality stock (possibly not American Apparel); because we value your opinions, we want to know which shirts you would like printed on women’s styles! Please vote in four super-short polls after each picture if you’d like to let us know how you feel.

Yes, we know the images are grainy. The blank shirt images at AmericanApparel.net are too small, and we had to expand them a bit. Also, the placement and relative sizes of these designs are not final, so keep that in mind while you are voting.
