Awesome Giveaways

A few Giveaways that I found thanks to the DealSeekingMom site.

8 Muddy Boots is hosting a giveaway for a free Lauren Nicole Gifts Mother's Necklace - it's soo pretty. You should definitely check it out! Or better yet, don't... that way I have a better chance of winning.


"Cents"able Momma, Thrifty & Chic Mom, BargainBriana, PennyPinchingDiva and STL Mommy are all hosting a $100 Home Depot Gift Card giveaway. Check out the Home Depot Garden Club for some great DIY projects - there's tips for everything from Starting Veggies from Seeds Indoors to Pruning a Rosebush. Or go to their main site where you can find anything from Power-tools to Patio Pavers (how's that for alliteration)!


Catch the Drift with Momma Snow is hosting a giveaway for a pair of Fairy Wings from Tiara's Boutique! O.M.G - Celeste would LOVE these. I love Etsy, you can find just about anything there.


And last on my list - Contest Corner is hosting a giveaway for paperback copies of The Alchemyst and The Magician, as well as a special-edition Challenges of the Elder mug! The books are the 1st and 2nd in the six-book series The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel. What are the books about? From the official Secrets of the Immortal website:

"A world where immortal alchemists battle undying magicians, where creatures from myth still survive and the characters from legends are alive.

More than half a millenia ago, Nicholas Flamel, a poor French bookseller, came across the Book of Abraham the Mage. Written in an ever-changing language was the entire knowledge of humanity. The book told of an ancient race that predated mankind, the Elders, and contained within it and extraordinary prophecy: that one day a pair of twins would come, either to save the world or destroy it. "

These look like books that my 15 year old daughter (and myself!) would really enjoy. We will definitely be on the look out for these.



Such great giveaways to be found out there!

Blog Contests

Mom's Crafty Life is having a give-a-way over at her site for a $25 Amazon gift card. There's some books I've been eyeing that I could sure use that for...hmmm, as of right now, I am the only contestant. Ok, that's it, no one read further, do not enter the above linked contest, I will be the WINNER! lol


Also, found on her blog was a link to John Chow's website/blog, where he is having a give-a-way for a Market Leverage Nike bag full of goodies. Goodies like a t-shirt, golf shirt, jacket, cap, as well as some really cool goodies like a flip video camera, $200 Market Leverage Amex Rewards card, USB drive that is also a pen, and an engraved iPod Nano. How cool would that be!?!


And last, but not least, Laura over at Organizing Junkie is (was) having a give-a-way for all of the people who participate in the Menu Plan Mondays! The give-a-way is for a Meal-Planning Notebook Planner. It allows you to list and track your grocery list and dinner menus for each week of the year all in one convenient location - not just main dishes, but side items and desserts as well.

There I go, slacking in the posting department

But to make up for it, I'm sharing a video of my littlest's newest feat. :)

Fancy editing, complete with typos, by the hubby. lol

ALSO - GreenStyleMom is hosting another giveaway. This time for a mom & kid set of earth-friendly water bottles from SIGG to celebrate SIGG's 100th anniversary. There's also a link in her post to enter for a chance to win a trip to Hawaii to see Jack Johnson. (But, you can't enter because we don't want the competition!)
