vote the red cross!

facebook users (everyone alive pretty much now), click here now. plz. k. thx.

so easy to do and do it once every 24 hours.

please vote for the red cross on target's facebook page. target is donating $3 million to different organizations and the voters decide how it is divided up! the red cross is currently in the lead so, let's keep it that way!

my love for the red cross emerged after a thought provoking and incredible learning experience i had as an intern in the marketing communications department at the greater chicago chapter during my senior year. i vote daily for the national chapter on the target site and everyone should really. the red cross helps so many people each day across the country. don't believe me? check out the daily ticker on their website filled with information on the disasters in the chicago area. the chicago chapter has a blog, too, that is updated pretty often. so web 2.0! follow them.

target bullseye bazaar

after finishing up my very last class for the semester this morning at nine a.m., i walked over to graham crackers for some comic books that came out yesterday. i picked up the new issues of: war of kings, trinity (not sure why i still buy this), world of new krypton, power girl, new mutants, flash: rebirth, run!, daredevil: noir, cable, buffy, and battle for the cowl: the network.

on the way home i hit up the much talked about target bullseye bazaar and snapped this shot outside. there was nothing appealing to me inside. it was more of a preview of what is coming up in terms of the vast array of target products with little emphasis on men's necessities besides some shirts. the pop up store allowed for much foot traffic and i'm sure high sales. it is a great marketing technique to use on michigan avenue for three days. i wonder how much the rent was for that. i'm jealous i didn't get to see any famous stars while i was in there!
