$25 TJ Maxx Giveaway

Monday, January 26th, 2009

This contest is now closed.  Thank you for all the awesome comments; I truly enjoyed reading them all.  The winner is Clarice.  Congrats!

Since everyone has been so welcome with all the changes I’ve got going on here, I’d like to give away something that shows my thanks.  I have a $25 TJ Maxx gift card that I’d like to give to one of my lucky readers.  What do you need to do?  I’ll actually make this easy.

Leave me a comment telling me one thing about myself, my family, or my blog.  (hint:  read a few entries or even my about page and you’ll have something.  lol)

Easy enough?  This is for US only (since I am paying for the gift card and shipping it) and will end Feb. 2.  Good luck!  (And make sure you check out the Bloggy Giveaways carnival for a ton more awesome contests!)

The latest Postie Carnival was held today over at Suni’s blog.  There was no topic, so you could send anything in.  She got a great turnout, so head over there and enjoy some quality posts.
