Good Luck!

I’ve come across some odd things since starting this site over a year ago, but this ranks up there in the top ten. J-List, a Japanese import site, never fails to have the most unique items available. These toe separators/foot relax pillows. Who knows, maybe they really work…sounds like it could be enjoyable.

If you want to try them out, you can get them from J-List for only $6.50!

I want this cuddly little panda so badly! He looks extrememly soft and just the perfect size to squeeze. Available from ShanaLogic.com for $28.00!

Yes, you read the title right: ear cleaner. Apparently in Japan, this is the traditional ear cleaner, not Q-tips. Regardless of what it’s for, it’s cute and it’s cheap! It reminds me of those little drums we played in kindergarten. Maybe that’s what it’s supposed to look like?

Only $3.25 from Jlist.

I just received the September WWF newsletter ( I signed up a bit late, obviously!) and it’s full of panda-y goodness!

• You can send a free panda ecard to someone you’re thinking of today. What a sweet way to say hi!

• You can download a ton of free wallpapers – including these amazingly cute panda ones! The first one is my current wallpaper and I ‘awwww’ every time I see it!

• You have a bunch of extra change lying around and one of these CoinStar machines in a store near you? If so, you can donate your extra change directly to WWF through CoinStar! I didn’t know this until today and now I’m making it my mission to pay for everything in whole dollars and collect the change for the pandas! How easy is that? Find out if there’s a CoinStar near you here.

• You don’t have enough panda related items in your wallet, you say? You’d like more and you want to help save pandas with it? I have the perfect credit card for you! You can get this WWF credit card from Chase and the WWF will automatically get $50.00 when you sign up. After that, 1% of everything you buy on the card will be donated back to the WWF.  Since the program started in 1995, Chase has donated over 10 MILLION dollars to WWF! Hurry and sign up before the US Economy crashes completely and no one can get approved for credit anymore.

See, now that was a panda filled newsletter, right? Sign up to get your own newsletter from WWF on their site.

This adorable pouch is available from the awesome ShanaLogic. I have a similar pouch that I use to keep all those extra reward/member cards in. It’s perfect – it keeps my wallet slim with only the cards I use frequently, but I still have the extra cards with me when I need them.

Of course, you could keep anything in this adorable pouch, it’s definitely roomy enough. It’d be a cute tampon case, too!

And at only $9.00 it’s a steal!

*As always, since I’m a ShanaLogic affilliate, 5% of sales goes to pandas! Yay!

So, all I can think about is the cute baby panda at the Atlanta Zoo.  I’m so excited I almost want to send out announcements! If I did, you can be certain I’d be sending them out sealed with wax and a cute panda!

Though actual handwritten correspondence is rare these days, it’s something I love to do. I think it makes the recipient feel special and cared about. Also, I love to receive handwritten mail – who doesn’t?! Adding a wax seal with an adorable panda impression would make the letter even more meaningful, so why not go the extra step?!

You can purchase this beautiful wax stamp for only $11.50 at Amazon.com; even if just for a desktop decoration.

I don’t remember how I stumbled upon this site, but I’ve been meaning to share it for quite some time. Renata Liwska is the author of a cute children’s panda book coming out this fall. October 27th, to be exact. A quick visit to her site lets you see what an amazing artist she is, and will surely make you want to preorder the book. I’ve already preordered mine for my little neice. I can’t wait!

Available for preorder on Amazon for only $10.36!

Also, I couldn’t resist sharing this adorable school portrait from her site!

So, who’s up for a huge giveaway?!

Starting at 1:00pm EST on Monday, August 25th, the first 50 people to email me at Giveaways@PerfectPandas.com with your name and mailing address will win a Panda Band bracelet!

I featured the Panda Band website in a previous post and how amazing it is that Tracey’s raising so much money for Pandas International. When Shana from ShanaLogic.com saw the post, she wanted to sponsor a giveaway to show her support for the pandas!

It’s official, the first $200.00 of ad revenue has been donated to Pandas International! (proof!) We’re still zooming along and we’ll be at $300.00 soon. If this pace keeps up we’ll have to come up with a better plan for the proceeds. The polls don’t seem to stay up long enough!

Speaking of polls, there’s a new one in the sidebar. Make sure to vote!

Thanks again for all the support for this little panda site. You’ve made a huge impact in helping pandas without much effort. How awesome is that?!
