    Halp feed animals!

    So, I'm sure some of you have heard me mention before "clicking through" from certain websites to help increase advertising revenue as a simple way of showing support.

    The Animal Rescue Site now has a specific clickthrough for exactly this.


    Basically, here's the deal:

    What they do: provide food for animal shelters.

    How we can help: click the box. That's it. Their advertisers pay based on how many clicks they get per day. Every last cent of advertising revenue goes directly to this purpose.


    It's a pretty genius idea, really. Takes minimal work to maintain the site, all people have to do is click, and you're essentially getting pet product companies to fund animal shelters, win-win all around. If you actually click through the ads and buy stuff there, that helps too, but meh to all that, the great thing here is everyone can help just by clicking a button once a day (or even just once ever helps a little). Best of all, you don't have to click an actual ad or anything to do it.

    So here's the link:

    http://www.theanimalrescuesite.com

    All you gotta do is click that link, then click the purple box, and bam, you've "bought" a bowl of food for an animal in a shelter without paying a cent. And not only that, but having food supplied opens up funding for better housing and workers etc. for said shelters.

    Do eet!

    So one click from one person earns enough from the advertiser to pay for one whole bowl of food for an animal? That's pretty impressive. I always figured such a thing would only get a cent or two. Or is the food just super cheap, like under a dollar per bag?

    Technically it's .6 of a bowl per click, but yeah when you're buying generic pet food in that kind of bulk it's pretty damn cheap.

    I'm impressed with you Plow, I figured this would be a Haiti thread at first glance.

    Buying ground up cow anus isn't that expensive.

    I'm sorry, but this is only a way for Obama to push his socialist agenda even further.
    You should be ashamed of yourselves.

    So many wrong things ran through my head when I read this post. I am sure if there is a place for bad people I am going there.


    I clicked though and will continue to do so.

    You wouldn't know that though because you've demonstrably never picked up a book nor educated yourself on the matter. Let me guess, overweight housewife?
