Help for the long term…

We have an active GoFundMe raising funds for Eli’s bail and legal fees. Please visit this link for a look back at where this started, thank you in advance for sharing, and we appreciate any support you are able to offer. 

Go Fund Me: Stand With Eli

Help for the short term…

Jail can be boring. Have questions? Want to talk to the author? Send Eli a message on the GTL Getting Out app, available for iPhone and Android. He’s bored, he’ll reply.

Details: Messages cost $0.25 to send. (Is the jail still using a 1994 cell phone plan?) To message Eli, go to Contacts > Add a Contact. State: Wisconsin; Facility: Dane WI; Booking number: 603173. The app needs to be refreshed often, and it does require some patience, but this is the best way to keep in touch with Eli from anywhere.

KEEP ELI CAFFEINATED

A blogger needs his coffee, but the jail provides very little in the form of hygiene and comfort. If you would like to add to Eli’s commissary, you can do so through JailATM.com. Because of the way the fees work, the most economical way to do so is to add money directly to his account by going to “Send Money Now” on the Homepage. 

State: WI; Facility: Dane County Sheriff’s Office; ID: 676876. Then click on Eli’s name and enter the amount you wish to deposit. There is a fee of $2.50 or 10%, whichever is greater, on deposits.

BUT…If you’ve ever longed to shop a jail commissary catalog from the comfort of your own home, you can also use JailATM.com to send Eli items directly! FYI, commissary prices are shocking. How much would you expect to pay for a 12oz bottle of V05 shampoo? At commissary, you’ll pay $6.74. Add a shipping fee of $7.95, and that DollarTree bottle of shampoo just rang up at $14.69! 

So be aware of prices, but Eli will always be grateful for the following list of his “Can’t Have too Much Of” items (most needed italicized):

COFFEE
Shampoo & Conditioner
Irish Spring soap
Advil & Tylenol (broken ribs hurt!)
Stamps & Envelopes
Sugar-free drink mixes
Hard candies
Sweet ‘n’ Low
Spicy noodles
Chocolate drink mix
Any boxed crackers
Hot sauce packets
Ranch packets
Squeeze peanut butter
Spicy refried beans
Spicy cheese tub
Soda (regular, any flavor)

To order, click on “Gift Packs” from the Homepage of JailATM.com. State: WI; Facility: Dane County Sheriff’s Office; ID: 676876. Click on Eli’s name. This will take you to the shopping section.
