Help Send Me to BlogHer ’10 in New York City
I am so excited to go to New York City this year for BlogHer. I can’t believe how quickly it’s approaching. I am finding various ways to make money on the side to send me there, as it’s going to cost a good chunk of change. Being a stay-at-home and a member of a family of five with one income, money is a little tight, to say the least.
Here is the list of items I need to pay for:
Conference Ticket – $200 – PAID
Hotel Room – $189 a night x 3 nights – approximately $650 with taxes
Taxis – $100 (a guess)
Airfaire – $400
Food – $100 (a guess)
So, it looks like I need to raise about $1100 in the next few months – eesh!
Here is my purpose in writing this. If you are a company and would like to sponsor me in going to BlogHer and would like to post your ad on my site, I can give you a quote for my charge to advertisers. If you are a reader and LOVE my blog and would like to donate something to help me go to BlogHer, you can do so through paypal – themommyfiles@gmail.com. If you do make a contribution, please title it BlogHer, so that I can give you a proper shoutout!
Thanks everyone! Here’s to BlogHer 2010!

Good luck!!!
I’ve heard about BlogHer… but don’t know much about it! You should tell us more about it and why you want to go! 
Good luck Shannon!!
I wish I could help you out! That way, I can live vicariously through you when you get to go
Lol
I would like to help you out, but I am not in the best place to right now… But if you could email me or repost this toward the middle or end of February, I should be able to help out a little!!!
Shannon, I SO hope you can go! You really deserve to go. I would love to go also, but don’t see it in my future! I would never be able to go alone, and definitely couldn’t afford for both Bill & I to go.
I know that there are lots of companies that will send you, because YOU ROCK!!
I can’t wait to read your review of the conference!

Good luck hun! I live in NY-near Albany-and would love to go as well, but I don’t think I’ll be able to afford it this year. I’m sure you’ll have a blast, though!. So jealous!!:)
I know what you mean about expensive. My family of 4 just came back from NYC but we had to drive all the way from GA and stay with family to make it happen. I’m a SAHM too BTW. And great blog!
