WIN #300!!!

THIS IS THE WINNERS CIRCLE!!!


Far be it from me to miss the opportunity to make a nerd joke.  I am at 300 wins and counting, Fitting of a monumental win it comes from a blog, and one I have read for a while too!




My 300th win comes from Being MVP, it was my choice of any LeTop outfit.  I chose a very cute pink ballerina type dress for my daughter who is very into dance right now.

Win #297

It's been a while since I did a Twitter Party.  I started back up because Coupon Clipinista posts them each day.  I go to the list and usually pick one or two that I can do during the day and I aim for the ones that are giving away toys or gift cards.  I joined in on the TTPM Live Twitter party and via an intense round of trivia questions was able to come out victorious with a 4 pack of Barbie Rock and Royals Mini Dolls!  Twitter parties are easy, they are just time consuming, and it's pretty much all chance, although the more you tweet and re-tweet the more you are entering.  I hope there will be many more Twitter wins in my future since I am taking the time to do them again!

Win #257!

Another fantastic and fabulous win from Mitch over at the Award Winning Blog Gay NYC Dad!  This will go in my Christmas Bin and we'll be saving it for the holidays, I save all year round and it makes the holidays so much easier!  Mitch has easy and daily entry methods and he is kick ass with Disney and gaming so his newsletters are actually worth reading and we love him!

Win #255


This is just crazy.  So I got an email yesterday that I won, it happens all the time.  Then I open the email and realize that it's not just a win, it's 36 wins in one.  I have never won a grand prize from a blog before.  Basically it was sponsored by 36 companies and each gave a prize then you had to like all the facebook pages in order to gain entry.  So I liked them all and I kind of let it fall off the radar until I WON!!!

So I can't begin to post pictures of everything but here is a list of the sponsors:
Stickybellies (received)
3 month card box (received)
zipadee-zip (received)

Baby undersocks
Maria Dismondy (received)
Psibands (received)

So I have no idea how to thank the sponsor enough, it's so amazing.  I am not sure what the prize adds up to amount wise but I am going to be calling it my biggest win to date.  I am going to be getting SO MUCH MAIL.  I also won out of 44 thousand entries so this just goes to show that sometimes you do win those high entry contests!!!

Win #241


Gosh I love Christmas time giveaways, it's just like shopping online for all the stuff I want!  I go enter Cher's giveaways at Mom and More every single day, she has an entry method that you can vote for her and get an extra entry every single day.  Again her's are mostly low entry, talking like under 3,000 which in my eyes is pretty sweet, especially when you are stacking those daily entries!

Thanks to Cher I will have my very own Springfield Doll for my little girl to enjoy, think I will be saving her for her February birthday. LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!!

Go check out Cher's blog and try to win for yourself!

Win #223 Thank God.


I say "thank God" because well, for two reasons.  Reason number one, as previously mentioned I have terrible OCD and the fact that my number of wins went that long at 222 is astounding to me.  I was this close to wearing a foil hat and locking myself indoors, I am making a pinchy gesture with my fingers right now to indicate that it was serious.  
Secondly I happen to win by quoting the bible!  How bout that, my title has two meanings, it makes me so happy.  I follow a lot of blogs and stores on Facebook because I enter things and love stuff so much that I click "like" possibly way too often.  The benefit of this is that I get to participate in fun things like "Name that verse Wednesday" from The Melted Crayon store on Etsy.  I happen to come in second place because I quoted Jude and not Ephesians but it so happens that their verses start in the same way so guess what, I still win!  
I ordered these two sets for my kids stockings and it was only $4.75 because of shipping.  I feel like today is obviously blessed, mostly because I can officially feel not anxious about the looming 222 that was on the blog.  PHEW!  Go check out The Melting Crayon because she is awesome and that is all.

Win #219


My kids are a marketers dream.  They see it on TV and they want it.  It might be that they watch a lot of sprout which airs a tremendous amount of "made for TV" merchandise and commercials or it might be something else but they want all the things that are advertised there, ala: Dream lites, light up pillows, cups that you shake that make ice cream and slurpees, lights you take to the potty and things you stuff crap into.  Sometimes I wish they would just ask for normal toys that don't have inflated price points and that I don't have to travel to the far reaches of Bed Bath and Beyond to find.

Well the kids saw a commercial For Bendastix and it just so happens one of my favorite blogs, Being MVP (button on the right hand side) ran a giveaway for them and i won, it softens my cruel cold heart when I get to win something that I would no doubt buy at Christmas time.  As a matter of fact one year I won almost all of my Holiday gifts.  So a huge thanks goes out to Being MVP, read her, she is awesome and enter her many giveaways too!

Win #193



I think a few posts back i was letting you know I had winner guilt over winning from the same promotion several times.  For instance; I won two honeywell space heaters, I won two blue steal rings.  Now you can count me in for three dial kids body wash wins.  I guess again I have to let it go because its totally random and the company did completely saturate the blog market.  So if I enter 100 of these giveaways in a week there is always the possibility of winning multiple times.

So there you have it, almost to 200 and it's another dial giveaway.  Thanks to Shawnee from Adventures of a Thrify Mommy for the awesome opportunity.  Stop by and enter, she has three good ones going on right now!

Win #189


I have so many good things to say about Mar at Obviously MARvelous.  She is a real down to earth chick and she and I share a love of tattoos and alternative parenting.  I really truly identify with her and she is a very sweet person, I have the pleasure of being her Facebook friend along with reading her blog regularly.  She has giveaways that are right up my ally and this one was perfect for me as I have a little wannabe super hero at my house.  He is four and I should have never let him help me customize this cape that I won for him because he has already asked me thirty times when it will be delivered.

So thanks a lot MAR!  Now I have to hear about this super hero cape for the next few weeks or until it arrives at our house, lol!  If you have time go check out Mar and enter her contest will ya!

A huge thanks to Mom Always Finds Out!  I scored a credit to Florsheim, so I can pick out a great pair of shoes for my little man!  I still am on the fence between two pairs but I haven't gotten the email with the credit code from the sponsor yet so I have time to mull it over!

Win #162!


I've won multiple times from Sweeps for Bloggers.  They offer a daily easy entry on all of their giveaways so it makes for good odds.  They have a high number of loyal readers though so it's usually pretty high entry into their giveaways.  They do a great deal though so it makes it really fun!  This month in particular they are giving away a ton of kids DVD's so I entered a ton to try to stock up on new DVD's for my car for the kids.  They were getting sick of the same old movies we had.  So thanks to Sweeps for bloggers for helping me score this Leap frog DVD!

I've been busy, otherwise known as Wins #'s 66-76


It's hard to believe that I have won ten times and havn't found the time to post a single one. I have to admit I do feel some winners guilt because I know I can't spend all day dedicating ten individual posts so I will have to list them here with respected links and hope the sweepsstakes gods smile upon me. Either that or I might have to sacrafice a goat, which reminds me I miss Rome a whole lot, god bless HBO and it's amazing production quality. I digress...

Without further ado these are the wins I had yet to document:

#66-Crayola Prize Pack Giveaway (I let my son keep some and donated some to a school supply drive)
#67-Bon Ton Gift Card (the sponsor gave me this in paypal which I thought was amazing)
#68-Ziggy and Friends Print
#69-Five Wood accessories Wooden cuff bracelet
#70-Recipe Box
#71-Everly Grey $200.00 maternity shopping spree (best prize evar!)
#72-Nacho mamas T Shirt
#73-Mommy Maestra Bilingual Flash Cards
#74-CSN Gift Card (Spent on Christmas presents)
#75- Johnsons and Johnsons Naturals Prize pack(saving for the new baby)
#76 Yo Gabba Gabba Prize Pack (saving that for Diego's stocking)

Win Number: 61 (First March Win!)


We have our first win of March! I feel like I was reading so many blogs and entering so many contests that it should have happened sooner, but...
I am really happy to say that the first win of March came from one awesome blogger, Mahaylas Mommy is a blog where I like to read about personal stories, awesome baby sales, and cool reviews of course.
Diego and I won a pillow pet, we picked the moose for him and I already know he loves them so it will be a nice addition to our toy family. Sarah over at Mahaylas Mommy is giving away another one this week, so head on over and enter, I don't think I can enter again so feel free to go for all the extra entries I normally say not to so that I can win. Also read some of her posts because she's a really nice and sensitive person with good things to say.

Win Number: 53

OMG, it totally worked! I blogged about something I wanted to win, to obtain the extra entries and I totally won it. I worked so hard doing everything possible to get the biggest chance at winning and I did! I am actually really proud of myself. I know since I have won from blessing abound before that I will love my prize and get more than I expected. What a great blog to win from! We picked Diego this Jacket for next winter, I love it!

Update: We got Diego's coat, this is for next year, im happy about not having to buy one! It's awesome quality and has down so I know it's really warm.
