These are a few of my favorite things GIVEAWAY!

**This is a sticky post - scroll down for more current posts.**

Bloggy Giveaways Quarterly Carnival Button

Last quarter's bloggy giveaway was NUTS. If you don't remember, I gave away a purse...with no money in it. I got 571 entries.

I don't think I could ever out-do myself on that one.

This week? I'm giving away my favorite things cuz I figure you might like them, too!

The winner gets the following:
1) $10 Starbucks gift card
2) A bottle of Johnson & Johnson Melt Away Stress body lotion (trust me - smells trés relaxing!)
3) A 5x7" picture frame similar to this one (never used, though I bought it awhile back for who knows what)
4) A copy of Plain Truth, by Jodi Picoult
5) A bag of Dove chocolates

Winner will be chosen using Random Number Generator on Friday, October 31 at 10 p.m. Central. To enter, leave a comment telling me how nice my hair looks today. (Winner must be in US or Canada and be willing to provide me with their mailing address. C'mon, I promise not to kill you in your sleep. Oh, and if you don't have an email address on your profile or in your comment, you can't win. So there.)

For more giveaways, go here.

Marni's Organized Mess said...

You seriously have amazing hair, is it naturally perfect or do you have to straighten or curl the ends?

:)

I checked the 365 blog, but there's no pics of it today. hehe.
