[Wamvan] One day left to get 50% off "It's in the Bag" Tickets

[Joanna Chiu]

Hi everyone,

We discussed promotion ideas for the purse auction dinner/dessert event "It's
in the Bag" <http://itsinthebag.ca/> on the listserv earlier, when ticket
prices were more expensive.

I hope you'll consider getting a ticket with the SwarmJam 50% off deal where
dessert-only tickets are only $20. At that low price, you can have a great
night out and support four local women's charities! This event will take
place this Friday, May 27th at the Roundhouse Centre.

*Featuring:*
• A purse auction fundraising event benefiting four local charities,
including the Antigone Foundation
• Event features a silent auction of handbags (designer purses, artistic
purses and purses donated by local or international celebrities)
• Also enjoy a great dessert, including red velvet cupcakes by Berliosca
Cake Boutique and a chocolate fountain
• Perfect girls night and a unique opportunity to give back

Get tickets here:

Here's more info about the event! Several of us will be volunteering at the
event, so we hope to see you there!

The relationship between a woman and her purse is something men will
probably never understand. Much more than just a means for carrying our cash
and cards around, these stylish accessories are more equivalent to a Swiss
Army knife than anything else. Whether you're looking for a nail file,
band-aid, moisturizer, car key or a small snack, it's a safe bet to say
you'll find all of that, and more, nestled somewhere in the bottom of the
bag. Now, thanks to the creativity of a group of local superwomen, purses
can also be used to raise money for women in need.

Attend an auction unlike any other and help out an extremely worthy cause
with today's DailyJam: 52% off a $39.25 admission (taxes and fees included)
to 'It's in the Bag', a purse auction fundraising event benefiting the
Antigone Foundation.

Conceived by 26-year-old Amanda Reaume, executive director and founder of
The Antigone Foundation, 'It's in the Bag' will feature purses donated by
prestigious designers like Zac Posen, Kate Spade and Coach. The event,
organized around the theme of celebrating "un-guilty pleasures", will
feature raspberry Bellinis, cupcakes from Berliosca Cake Boutique and much
more. All proceeds go to the WISH Drop-In Centre, the Soroptimist
International of Vancouver, the Association for Women's Action, Research and
Empowerment and Antigone Foundation.

A woman can never really have too many purses so pick up a new one - and
support a great cause - with today's daily deal.
