<p>Dear Ms. Courtney,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Happy Holidays! I've got a major pledge contribution for your pledge drive -- it's a million dollar suggestion.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Since MCPB has been puffing up its balance sheet through additions to its collection of LPs and CDs, here's a million dollar idea. KUSP in Santa Cruz did it, so I'm sure that KZYX can.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Apparently, the CPB allows grant recipients to value LPs at $3.50 each, and CDs at $7.25 each. You can get some great deals on ebay like the one here:</p>
<p><br>

</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>It's a collection of 100 CDs for $14.99 plus $5 shipping. That's only 20 cents apiece. Meaning that you can buy it for $20 and declare a value $725 on your balance sheet, for a net gain of $705. You can buy even larger collections for less. So with a little Holiday
shopping, KZYX's financial woes are over!</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>
<p><br>
