Thanksgiving Jam 2009
T & Button set Featuring H.R., Walter Schreifels,
Steve Soto, Jeff Pezzati... and me :)
These are items from some of my favorite shows ever. The performances themselves were fun, but what was really special was that everyone chipped in... And that I ended up on a supercool shirt and button set with some of my punk & hardcore heroes. I'm helping sell some of the leftover merch from the shows, so $ made selling these will go towards http://www.elihome.org and http://friendshipkitchen.com
Great time, great merch, get it while you can.

AN ACTUAL YARD SALE*
(For the regular 'Yard Sale' store, click here)
I've always called the store part of the site the 'Yard Sale'. That comes from ideas that I've always had about selling stuff in an interactive way (even back when I was 12 and I'd trash-pick on my paper route, then have 'pick your price' yard sales every few weeks). This takes the site store yard sale to a whole 'nother level. I put suggested price ideas on everything to start that conversation, but the point is just pickin a bunch of stuff and making a reasonable offer. Just pick what you want, write to me (either via http://jonahmatranga.com/jonahboard or on gmail, i'm jonahstuff) to ask any questions, say what you want and how much you want to pay, check on shipping, etc, pay via the super-simple digital Tip Jar below (or at http://jonahmatranga.com/tipjar) or however you like, and I'll send you stuff. It's really JUST like a yard sale, except via the mail... Unless you live near me, in which case we can do it in person :)
So, get a bunch of stuff, cheap and fun and personal. Spread the word (esp about the stuff that's not me-related, like the other music and the gadgets, gear, etc)
Thanks - Jonah

Here's an easy, secure way to pay for random stuff (unique recordings, special orders, etc) or just be extra nice.
Super-simple directions: 1. Click 'Add To Cart'
2. Type in any amount you choose (depending on what you're paying for, or just what you feel like giving)
3. Click 'Update Cart'* (don't forget that part!)
4. Click 'Checkout' to use PayPal or any credit card.
Whether you're getting merch or downloads, it all goes into the same cart for quick and easy checkout.
You'll receive an e-mail with easy, secure links for any downloads.
Please double-check yr address and make sure you've specified the size, color, etc.
Please allow 1-3 weeks for delivery.
Depending on many factors (mail, inventory, etc.),
it'll be super-quick sometimes, other times not so much...
It's a home-style operation. I will always personally attend to any issues.
Payment can be made via credit card or PayPal. If you'd like to pay by cash or check, we can work that out too.
This store operates on a sliding scale. It's simple: After you've chosen what you want, if you'd like to pay less than what the suggested price is, just enter littleslide, bigslide or superslide in the Discount Code window at checkout. On the other hand, if you're feeling rich and/or generous, use the tip jar and enter any amount you like.
Basically, have fun buying stuff, for a fair price, direct from the person that made it. That's what this is all about.
Any thoughts, lemme know via the board, or write to jonahmerch (at) gmail (dot) com.
