Giveaway!!

Hi Readers and Followers! I want to tell you how much I appreciate all of you taking the time out of your day to come visit my little place on the blog-o-sphere. Though I don’t respond to comments as frequently as I should, I do read all of them. I appreciate the link-backs to my blog, tweets and mentions. So, for being awesome Readers and Followers, I thought it would be fun to have a Giveaway to “kick-off” the holiday season. And, as you know from my past giveaways, I will have more than one winner.

Three lucky Followers will receive a J Crew Reusable Canvas Tote Bag filled with a few little goodies to get you through the holiday season. Included in this tote bag are: Archie Grand J Crew Notebook (so you can keep your shopping lists organized and in one place), and a $5 Starbucks Gift Card (grab a coffee or one of their Salted Caramel Mocha’s to start your shopping day).

So for fun, answer the following questions. My answers are in parentheses.

  1. What’s your favorite holiday movie? (A Christmas Story followed closely by Elf.)
  2. What’s your favorite holiday song? (The Christmas Song sung by Nat King Cole. It always puts me in the Christmas spirit.)
  3. What’s your favorite holiday shopping day? Or do you avoid it all? (The day before Christmas, Dec 23/24. I don’t shop so much as people watch that day. Especially the Husbands and Kids trying to do their shopping at the last minute. Hilarious and sweet!)

Rules:

  1. One entry per person please. You need to be a Follower.
  2. Leave your name AND email address in the comments. Don’t forget to Subscribe to the comments.
  3. Entries will be taken through Sunday, November 27th, at 7 p.m. Central time. No entries will be counted after that.
  4. United States and Canada entries only please. 
  5. I will use Random.org to select the winners. Please respond in a timely manner so I can ship quickly. A new winner will be chosen for those who do not respond within 48 hours of my email/announcing.
  6. I will contact the winners via email and also post it on the comments/blog on Monday, November 28th. Please check back and see if you’re a winner.

You don’t want to miss out on this! Good Luck!

    Fun! Favorite movie is A Christmas Story. Favorite song is I Heard the Bells On Christmas Day, but I love pretty much everything except Little Drummer Boy, have an irrational aversion to that one! I do most of my shopping early, but I love to go out the last few days before Christmas to get stocking stuffers, my dad and uncle used to take us kids out to do this, and it is a fun tradition, no pressure since it is just for fun stuff.

    Sorry for the delay ladies!

    Here are the winners.

    Cindy – OMG! My uncle had a real-life experience with a dried out turkey. He said it actually made that noise…pssshhhh. Haha!

    Mommyblogger – You'll shoot your eye out! One of my favorite scenes is when the dad got the "Major Award". That and when Randy falls in the snow and can't get up.

    eek – I love anything they sing.

    I'll be emailing you ladies shortly to get your addresses!

    Thanks for entering.
