We Have Made A Difference!

Dearest Visitors,

The Shopping Whisperer is updating today to let all of our beloved shoppers and visitors know that a difference has been made! :)

All profits made from payment received have been donated to World Vision "Gifts of Hope"! :D We were very happy today when we donated the money, and hope that you are too! :)

Our donation has gone directly to funding the education of underprivileged children in Sarawak, Malaysia:

"Education is crucial for breaking the cycle of poverty. These workbooks will introduce children to the basics -- the alphabets, writing and mathematics. You can turn a new page in the lives of children in need!" - World Vision -

Thank you once again to our customers, visitors, friends, and supporters! :)

With Love,

The Shopping Whisperer

PS: To anyone out there who is interested in donating to World Vision as well, they have set up a booth in Bangsar Shopping Centre. :)

SOLD OUT! :)

Dearest visitors! :)

Within 4 days, we are completely SOLD OUT! :) A big thank you to everyone who helped to support our charitable aspirations - all profits made will be donated to charity! :)

This blog will now be inactive for an indefinite period of time - we can only update when we have another long university holiday (oh, holidays, why art thou elude us!), if/when we can get more stocks for even better prices, and with hopefully more volunteers on board! :)

Please check back before the end of the year if you would like to know which charitable organisation we have selected! :) We will make the donations as soon as all payments have been secured. :) And post up the information on this website. :)

Ahhh, thank you again to everyone for your support!! :)

With love,
The Shopping Whisperer.

PS: To contact us, simply leave a comment below this post (please provide your e-mail address) and we will try to respond to your enquiry as soon as we can! :) Our e-mail address has been deleted as at 25th November 2008, Tuesday 11.40pm - any e-mails you receive from that address is *not* from us! :)

Our Farewell Post (or "See You Later" Post)

Latest update: 7.11pm, Tuesday 25th November, 2008

Welcome to The Shopping Whisperer, a student-run non-profit online store built for a 1-week run (from the 21st - 27th November, 2008). :)

We would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you for visiting and supporting this blogshop, and to let you guys know that we will not be updating anymore unless we get our hands on more stock with lower prices and more people on our team. ;)

This has been a short (and exhausting >.<) but very fulfilling run - but none of it would have been possible without the support of the blogosphere, the network of online shoppers, and our wonderful friends. :D Thank you! <3

And may our week-long pet project have inspired someone else out there to make a difference - however small - as well! :)

We are also very pleased to announce that we have decided to donate profits made to underprivileged children! :D (We will post up more information on this website after we have confirmed everything - and all payment is received!)

Just a final note that we wanted to share with our readers... :)

The world is in a recession now - and though everyone is feeling the impact of it, we can only imagine the impact that less privileged children will have to endure. Because the profit from this online store is very little, we have also decided to fork out some money from our own pocket to add to the sum total donated. :)

It may not be much - but it is still something.

Thank you to everyone who has supported us (even visiting this site and reading our very lengthy farewell note is appreciated! Hehe!), and take care! :)

We have learnt a lot from all of you, and hopefully we'll have done something more than just sell things by building this website, more than donating profits (and in the case of no profits, a portion of payment received) - beyond anything else, we seek to inspire. :)

Have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, everyone! :)

------------------------------------
*Please Note:

After 3pm tomorrow, we will be closing and deleting our e-mail account (theshoppingwhisperer@gmail.com) - please do not send any e-mails to that address! (Only our friends, customers, and shopping review blog owners know our personal e-mails.)

*WARNING: If you receive any e-mails from theshoppingwhisperer@gmail.com after 25th November 2008, Tuesday 11.40pm - please note that it is *NOT* from us! (A deleted account means the name and address will be up for grabs for whoever wants it.)

The 2 tagboards on this site will be taken down while this website is not active - although this blog will still remain up. :) We also need to update once to let you know which orphanage & its address (this will be done hopefully before Christmas - hopefully we will receive all payments by then!).

If you need to reach us, just leave a comment below - all comments will be automatically sent to our founder's personal e-mail address (if we set the blogger settings correctly, lol!). :)

Thank you, everyone. We will always treasure the memories that came with running this blog! :)

With love,
The Shopping Whisperer.

*UPDATE: Tuesday

Welcome to The Shopping Whisperer! This online store will donate its profits to charity - just thought it would be a cool summer project from the 21st until the 27th of November 2008! We are on a short summer break before our academic semester starts again in December, hehe! We aspire to give ourselves and our customers the chance to have some fun while shopping for a good cause! :)

All items are brand new and unused (except for modelling purposes), accessories are handmade, and our aspirations are true. :)

Thank you for visiting The Shopping Whisperer! We look forward to selling everything posted on this online blogshop at the moment as quickly as we can so that we can make our first donation once all payments are received! :) We are pretty excited, hehehe.

Oh oh and a special thank-you to http://ashopaholicsden.blogspot.com/ and http://diaryofane-shopaholic.blogspot.com/ for their reviews on this humble little blogshop, it's dreams and its items on sale! :) We really appreciate the fact that our charitable aspirations receive so much support from you guys - especially from our own friends! :D
