BECKY SHER | Hype Charity cases: Celebs auction items for benefit

You can't have Demi Moore's boyfriend, but you can have her cosmetics case. Granted, it could cost you a pretty penny (actually at least 20,000 pretty pennies). Cosmetics company Stila has teamed up with eBay to auction off seven of its cute train-case carryalls signed by some of Hollywood's hottest celebs. In addition to Moore, Cameron Diaz, Lucy Liu, Drew Barrymore, Jodie Foster, Christina Ricci and Natalie Portman have scrawled their famous names in silver pen across the black cases.
Between Nov. 3 and 10, log on to www.eBay.com and bid on the bags; bidding starts at 200 bucks. That's a lot of cash, but at least it goes to a good cause: Women in Need Inc., a nonprofit that provides services and programs for homeless and disadvantaged women and kids. Sure, it would pretty much wipe out your savings. But you're probably not going to steal away Ashton, so this might be the best you can do.
In the game
If you're a video-game fan, there isn't much that's cooler than the chance to actually be inside the game. Imagine it: Gamers all around the world would control your every move. Well, maybe that's not the best way to look at it.
Dr Pepper and Nintendo are giving you the chance to be featured in a new video game.
In November and December, check under the caps of 20-ounce and 2-liter bottles, and inside 12-packs of Dr Pepper, Diet Dr Pepper and Red Fusion.
Even if you don't win the top prize of being seen on screen, you could get a Nintendo GameCube or a Game Boy. Want more info on this cool promotion? Check the Dr Pepper Web site at www.drpepper.com.
