Giving it a go with a Giveaway!

Let's get this party started... right?

The holidays are coming.  I'm giving away a gift card to Pier1 Imports.  


Find lots of holiday decorating items, knick-knacky gifty things, candles and more for your chuther or another chuther.  You can use this card for in-store purchases... unfortunately you cannot shop online with it.  But there are about 1,000 stores nationwide.  Pick out something special... or give the gift card to someone as a present so they can pick out their own something special!  Or you could even sell it ;-)

The value on this card is a whopping EIGHTY buckeroos.  Yes, $80.  For real.

Ways to enter this over-the-top giveaway madness:


  1. check out the linked website and let me know what strikes your fancy  OR...
  2. let people know about it by posting about it on YOUR blog  OR...
  3. join the club and let me know your a "follower" of this folly (not just a reader but actually an official "follower").
So you could triple your chances of winning the prize by doing all three!  Or double your chances by selecting two of the options!  Woo hoo!

The winner will be chosen at random on the evening of November 9, 2010... so y'all have over the weekend and then some to enter!  

Tell your friends!  Tell your family!  Anyone is welcome to play... but you've gotta play to win!

(Disclaimer:  I have not been nor will I be compensated in any way by or for conducting this giveaway.  I am in possession of this gift card by legal and above-board means... no hanky panky, deception, trickery, thievery, or other untoward behavior of any kind was involved).

    Pier One... what memories... I had college friend who worked there part time. I can still remember the SMELL when I walked in the shop. So for me, I'd want candles -- things that smell great.I'd like to try the reed diffusers too. Wonder if the cats would ruin them?

    ReplyDelete

  47. I don't have a desk in my room, so I spend all my time studying on the floor. A good floor cushion would really make this a lot more comfortable, and I have been eying the Sari Square Pouf for a while now. As a college student this is an extravagance that I probably should not splurge on (but would really love!).
