Enter to Win Prizes You Can Use!

Hello, everyone, and welcome to the New Year! I hope you've made some beautiful memories over the holiday season, and are feeling refreshed and ready for this new start.

Today I thought it would be a good way to start the new year with some prizes you can use. These are not the luxury items that seem so nice to win. Nor are they those fabulous getaways to far away places that some may be dreaming of at this time of year. Yet, each of these would bring joy into someone's home and life.

There are bundles of useful items for around the house. You can choose anything from tools to kitchen items, so you're free pick the package that suits the needs of your household.

Then, there is some new flooring! New flooring would certainly be a joy, and would help to free up the budget for other projects. Mmmm... I can just imagine a nice, cushy new floor to lay on with a nice soft pillow and a cozy blanket, while watching some TV on a lazy winter night!

Finally, there is the thing that anyone can use, some good old-fashioned cash, and even more!

Scotties “Big Comfort Stock Up” Sweepstakes

This post was proofread by Grammarly

Two Ways to Win $25,000, and Two Ways to Win a New House!

Today we travel to Thrillsville, with prizes to make you swoon! How thrilling would it be to win $25,000? More thrilling than riding a zip line over the Colorado River, I'm sure. Lucky you, there's two chances for you to win it, today! If you'd win, then maybe you could go ahead and ride that zip line...

On the other hand, there's also two chances to win a new home today! Amazing! This is a particularly big thrill for me, and one that I've been following for a number of years. This year's Blog Cabin is in a lovely location in Idaho. I have regularly noticed that Idaho is just never in the news, so gather that it must be a nice place to live. Of course, the location is just too beautiful to pass by.

Then, there's the Urban Oasis in Asheville, North Carolina. I fell in love with Asheville the first time I went there, years ago, so was quite pleased to see that this year's home was located in this city. If you've never been there, you can find more information on the sweeps pages. It, too, is quite beautiful, and the climate is nice. According to Livability.com, it is the 12th best city to live in America, so that says enough!

Onward, to Thrillsville!

Winning News

Well, I finally won a pack of the "Shout Wipes" from the Short Stop post of May 7th. I was beginning to think that if I couldn't win one of 3,000 of these, that something must be wrong with me! In any event, I always enjoy these types of wins, as it's a good chance to try before you buy. Thanks, Shout!

I also won a $50 off a $75 purchase coupon from Underground Cellar, in the current giveaway they have on their Facebook page. The wine I won from them last time was absolutely divine, so, maybe I'll start to stock a "cloud cellar" with this one, and get a good collection going. Maybe. Thank you, Underground Cellar!

Along with these wins, I received yet another winning email, telling me I am a winner in "Wacoal’s 30 Years of Beauty sweepstakes," which was posted on April 22, in "Enter to Win Some New Clothes!" The prize I won in this one is an $80 electronic gift card to use on the Wacoal site! I am happy to say that my order is now on its way... Thank you, Wacoal!

What an exciting week!





Good Luck!
