Sears Canada announced that ten of its 18.5 HP Deluxe Sears Craftsman lawn tractors have hit the eBay.ca auction block, already raising more than $7,000 in the first four days of the 18 days of auctions. The sales from the auction will go to Sears Young Futures, a community investment program that supports organizations such as Boys and Girls Clubs that provide enriching after-school programs that inspire children and youth to believe in themselves. Online shoppers may log-on to http://www.ebay.ca/charity and then click on the Sears Young Futures icon to bid on one of the tractors. The opening bid for each tractor, which retails (if new) for $2,699.99, is $499.99.
