Wherein Fr. Z makes an appeal

Dear readers, this is an appeal.

Your use of my links to stuff on Amazon or your use of my search box on the right sidebar provides important income.

Every time you enter Amazon through my links or that search box, I get a small percentage of whatever you purchase.

I cannot see who buys what.  I have no idea who you are.

Once you use my link or searchbox, you don’t have to keep going back to the link or searchbox for other things: Amazon remembers, during that session, how you got there.

There is a reader who alerts me to purchases made for his workplace. He’s in charge of that, and he uses my searchbox to enter Amazon.   If you are in charge of making orders, perhaps you could do the same.

If you find something you want to get, highlighted the text of the item (Ctrl+C), and paste it into my searchbox (Ctrl+V).

The percentage which I get per item is small.  Many people with small purchases makes a huge difference over the course of a month.

Take a couple more seconds to buy that gizmo.  Come over to this blog and use my searchbox.

The searchbox is toward the top on the right.

Thanks for considering this.  It is extremely helpful.
