$50 Cash Card Giveaway

February 12, 2009 · 168 comments

***Updated to announce that Lindsay K. (#17) is the lucky winner of the cash card! Spend it wisely!***

Guess who has been named a finalist in the Mabel’s Labels BlogHer ’09 Contest?! Yep, you guessed it: me! And in an effort to get a few votes cast my way I thought I’d sponsor a little giveaway. Or a big giveaway…

Everybody loves cash right? Unfortunately sending cash through the mail can be a bit tricky. Credit cards are the next best thing though, yes? I hope you’ll agree because that’s what I’m giving away. Fifty smackaroos. FIFTY! If you’re the lucky winner I will send a fifty dollar cash card, or a fifty dollar gift card to the retailer of your choice, (as long as I can purchase said gift card online) right to your door.

To enter:

1. Click HERE to vote for my essay. Simple as that. Vote only one time and make sure that it’s for Darcie @ Such The Spot.

2. Once you’ve voted for me come back here and let me know you did so by leaving me a comment.

3. If you’d like to gain an extra entry, Twitter or post about this giveaway on your blog. And then let me know in the comments that you did so. You’ll get one extra entry for each method you use to spread the word. Just leave another comment telling me you tweeted, or posted a shout out on your blog.

4. I will randomly choose a winner on Tuesday, Feb. 24th. You have until Friday, Feb. 20th at noon EST to vote/enter.

Good luck (to you and me!).
