Buy George Clooney's Gift Bag For Darfur
April 25, 2008 by Tim Saunders
If you just can’t resist George Clooney -and let’s face it, who can – then you definitely won’t be able to resist checking out the new charity auction featuring the chance to pick up some of his unwanted bits and pieces.
The actor and UN Messenger of Peace has put his Oscar Nominees Gift Bag up for auction to benefit Not On Our Watch, the charity he set up with Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Don Cheadle, and Jerry Weintraub to end genocide in Darfur. The gift bag is filled with a range of elegant items such as a Personal Heineken Beer Tender, Marilyn Monroe ‘Classic Series’ wine goblets, exclusive spa packages including a gift certificate for a two night stay at La Costa Resort and Spa, Oscar Gold Havaianas, a Swarovski Crystal Pet Collar, and more.
Okay, so the Re-joyce Bags for Darfur may not have that tiny little throw-in Swarovski Crystal Pet Collar, but don't underestimate just what you might find instead! Stray threads that didn't get clipped in time. A pair of pants turned into pockets. And much like the Golden Ticket coveted in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, one of our Darfur bag supporters recently came across a rather exhilerating surprise in her purchase as well.
She was fortunate enough to get her hands on one of the button flower bags, that anyone who slept on sheets in the 70's gets a little choked up about. She dove her hands into that field of flowers and was pierced to the heart. No, that's not it. She was pierced at the finger.....by a needle and thread so thoughtfully left there for her, should she ever be at a formal function and find all the buttons on her dress pop off simultaneously.
So, George-- What would she have done with the pet collar in that instance, I ask you?

Now I'm searching for more treasures in my Beautiful Button Bag that you may have thoughtfully placed there. So, let me know when George calls. We'll all do lunch.
