Guess What!
Yesterday I told you about an awesome contest on Today's Gizmos. Well guess what. I won! I was one of 3 lucky winners, that is! Congrats to the other two winners also, Kat and Pixelhead!
I'm so happy right now! I've only won 1 other contest before, and that was when Christine gave away an awesome Amazon gift card. I think I'm as happy was my sister was when someone told her she could buy Phentermine without a prescription. Yeah she's put on some extra weight here lately, but I seriously don't think she needs that stuff. She's got some pretty serious health problems. Yep, I'm talking about my sister with Hashimoto's Thyroid Disease, and I just don't think she needs to be taking diet pills for her problems. Her weight gain is a medical problem because of her thyroid. It's not like she just gained all this extra weight all of a sudden for no reason.
Anywho, I'm rambling on when I really need to be getting myself to bed. Goodnight!

What is Todaysgizmos.com giving away? Awesome digital photo keychains! I've been wanting one of these for awhile. Your pictures are displayed on a 1.5 inch LED display, so you can share them with the world without carrying around a stack of photos in your wallet or purse.

Become A Model
You can look at me and easily tell I'm not model material. I'm 5'2" for one, and I don't exactly have the body of a model. I love southern fried food way too much lol! But there are a lot of people out there who would love the chance to model. You may or may not be one of them. You might know someone yourself who you look at and think "look at her/him. She/he could so be a model!"
If you know someone like that I might just know of a way to help them find that modeling career they've been looking for.

http://www.lookoftheyear.com is a great way to get recognized. Look Of The Year is a worldwide beauty contest, and prizes include $10,000 USD. Who knows, you could submit your photo and be noticed by a modeling agency who's looking for someone with your look! To enter all you have to do is send in your best photo!

Arghhhhh!
I be a pirate! At least I can pretend!
I love treasure hunts, and right now I've just been given the opportunity to participate in an awesome treasure hunt where I can win some awesome jewelry from jewelelegance.com! I was just poking around their site to see what kind of jewelry they carry, and they have some gorgeous diamond rings. I would really love to win one of those since I can't even wear my wedding ring anymore.
There will be 4 treasure hunts in total, and the first one starts this week. The prize is going to be a beautiful 14k gold anklet. I would love to win that, but I'm really interested to see what the other prizes are going to be. You better believe if I win I'll be showing off tons of photos of my awesome prize!

Some Cool Stuff Coming Up
I'm excited about some of the stuff I've got for you guys this week. I've got a couple really cool reviews. I'm not going to tell you what exactly I have to review, but I will tell you both items are smaller than an Emily crib and bigger than a cell phone! I know that really doesn't tell you much does it? LoL that's kind of the point! Trust me both items are really cool though, and I'll try to get the first review up tomorrow.
Also, there's a new contest in the works. I haven't ran one in awhile, so I figured it was about time to show some appreciation to my readers. Details will be posted soon!
Stay tuned!

Win With The Rookie Challenge
Have you been interested in investing in the stock market, but you're afraid of losing your money? That's exactly how I describe myself. Every time I consider investing I change my mind because I'm afraid I'll lose all my money.
My dad has been very successful in the stock market, and he's always telling me I'll never learn to invest correctly if I don't jump in there and risk some money. Well Daddy, I think I've found a better way to do it. My way doesn't involve risking any real money, but I can win $1000 in real cash!
All I have to do is sign up for a free account at MyWallSt.net, the social networking site for people with an interest in finances and the stock market. Then all I have to do is take the rookie challenge. They'll give me $100,000 in virtual money to invest in real companies. Just like the real market, I can buy and sell between 10am to 4pm Monday through Friday. Then MyWallSt will track my performance. I can even view my portfolio online, and I can see the top Rookies for each day.
At the end of the market week MyWallSt will tally the performances of all the Rookies, and if I have the highest percent gain in portfolio equity I'll win $1000 in cold hard cash! Not only will it be fun to play, but the game is a free learning experience with a chance to win big. Once I get the hand of investing I can then take advantage of the social network to meet new friends who share an interest in investing.

Contest Drawing! We Have Winners!
First, let me apologize for 2 things. I'm not feeling well, so I made this as quickly as possible, and secondly my web cam sucks.

I'll Be Here
We didn't go to Tampa. My friend's sister offered to fly down from New York to help him out. She's bringing along a couple friends and turning it into a vacation, so I don't feel bad about not going. Under the circumstances I just don't think it would be a good idea to drag hubby that far away with his feet still messed up. He's on crutches, but his left foot is still swollen double normal size, and I just want him to stay off it as much as possible.
Anyway, that means I'll have more time to blog this weekend! I'm going to try to get some of my product reviews up. I've got a stack of notes sitting here about some of the products I've tried this week, and I'm also planning to include descriptions of some of the products I'll be giving away next weekend! That's a reminder to get your entries in before the deadline!

Possibly Going Out of Town/ Contest Update
Since I don't know what's going to happen this weekend, I'm going to extend my Bath & Body Giveaway until Saturday September 15th. That means you've got an extra week to get your entries in! We were supposed to go out of town that weekend for our anniversary, but that trip has been canceled, so I will run the contest through that weekend.
I got a phone call tonight from a friend asking me to take a weekend trip to Tampa. He's in Iraq, and he needs someone to be at his house when some of his belongings are delivered there from his old house in Oregon. The only problem is he has no family or friends in Tampa. He's moving there because of a job.
Normally in a situation like this, I would be more than happy to go stay at my friends house for the weekend, but this is Tampa! It's almost a 9 hour trip for me. I feel bad saying no, but I just don't know what to do. He's a really great friend, and he'd do anything for me in a heartbeat. I haven't talked to hubby about it yet, but I if we do go this could be a little "recovery" get away for him. He can't really get out and do anything with his broken foot, but we could at least spend the weekend relaxing.

Contest Going Well
We've already got a few entries for the Bath & Body giveaway! Don't forget it ends September 7th at midnight EST, so don't forget to get your entries in. All participants will receive a bit of linky love at the end of the contest. I plan on running at least one contest a month from now on depending on how things go. I'll be giving away all sorts of stuff, so look for stuff from MP3 players to candles to personalized pens.
Informal Bath & Body Giveaway
I've been talking about a lot of bath & body products lately, and I decided why should I be the only one to enjoy all these awesome things? I decided to throw a bunch of them together for a huge Informal Critique Bath & Body Giveaway! This stuff is so wonderful that I know you guys will enjoy it. Even my cat can't stay away! As soon as I put the basket together he was all over it! I had such a hard time snapping photos of it because he constantly wanted to sniff everything!

The Prize:
Each prize will include 2-3 randomly selected products from the basket o' goodies. Click on the photo below for a more detailed look.
I have purchased each and every one of these products from The Little Black Box or The Candle Buzz Sampler. Almost all of these items are brand new, never used with the exception of the scrubs, perfumes, and lotions. Those have had a small amount removed for testing purposes only. When testing lotions and scrubs I remove a small amount with a sterile q-tip, so rest assured none of these products have contacted my body in any way. If I have a business card that goes with each product I will include it, or I will give you a list of the websites where you can find the product if you would like more in the future.
*EDIT*
I forgot to mention that almost all of these products are vegan, and ALL of them are homemade!
The number of winners will be determined by the number of participants.
10 participants or less = 2 winners
11-20 = 3 winners
20 or more participants = 5 winners
This means the more people you get to participate, the more prizes I will give away! Each participant's blog address will be placed in a basket, then I will conduct a video drawing that will be uploaded within 2 days of the end of the giveaway.
How To Participate:
There are 4 ways to receive an entry to this giveaway.
1. Anyone who has a blog is invited to participate. All you have to do is write a blog post that mentions my blog (http://informalcritique.blogspot.com) as well as the giveaway, then link back to this post.
Here's an example:
"Jenn over at Informal Critique is giving away some really smelly stuff on her blog! If you want to know what it is, check out the Informal Critique Bath & Body Giveaway to see what it is!"

Contests!

It's time for a Geeky Speaky giveaway again, and Colleen's got some great stuff this month! She's giving away a Phillips 512MB MP3 Player for the grand prize and a Clean DR Screen Cleaning Kit as the booby prize. Both are great prizes that I wouldn't mind getting my hands on. I would really love to win the MP3 player.
Hubby and I both have MP3 players right now, but I've got a Sandisk 512MB and he's got a Sandisk 256MB. Don't get me wrong, I love my Sandisk, but hubby can't stand the fact that his is so small! We use them mainly when we're on the bike, and hubby ends up listening to the same songs over and over. He can't store the variety he would like. Just about every other day he's in here complaining that his MP3 player isn't big enough, and he's got to switch out his playlist again. If I won this Phillips 512MB MP3 player, I could give hubby my Sandisk 512MB, and I would have a brand new one for myself! You didn't really think I would be willing to give him the new one did you?
If you want a chance to win either of these prizes, head over to Geeky Speaky for a list of rules and ways to enter. It's fun to participate, and you've got nothing to lose! All the Geeky Speaky prizes are tech related, so if you're looking for something in a more general category, you can also check out the contest on Simple Kind of Life. The contest is the same, the prizes are different. It's that simple!
Cleaning Out My Books
I'm thinking about signing up with a book exchange. I've got tons of books laying around here, and honestly I'm running out of room to put them all. I thought about Ebaying some of them or maybe selling a few on Amazon, but I always have a problem letting go of my books. That's why I've thought about looking into a book exchange program of some sorts. At least I would feel like I was passing it on to someone else who would really like to read it, and I would get something back in the process. Anyone know any really good book exchange programs to use? Preferably free?
I'm also thinking about giving away a few of my books through a blog contest, but considering we all probably like to read different things, I'm not sure how this would work. I'm thinking about making a list of some of the books I have, then running a contest where the winner can choose a number of books from the list. That way participants would be able to see a list of books I've got before they decide to participate. I don't know, it's still just an idea floating around. I'll figure it out later.

Win With Your Photos
My love of pictures might actually help me earn something. I’m no professional photographer, but I’m definitely going to enter one of my photos into this photography contest I just heard about from Picture.com. Over $100,000 in cash prizes are going to be given away to some very lucky winners just for submitting one of their photos. There are tons of different categories you can submit your photos to. I think one of the most popular will be the baby photo contest. We all know we love cute babies. There’s also going to be a pets category where I will definitely submit the puppy’s photos. I'm thinking about submitting this one after I clean it up a bit.
- Animals/Pets
- People
- Travel
- Children
- Sports
- Nature
- Action
- Humor
- Portrait
- Other
If you want to join me by entering this contest, click on the banners in this post and submit your info. Whether you decide to enter or not, if you like photography and post your photos on a website or blog, I would love to have a link so I can check out your photos. Feel free to leave links to your photo blogs or websites in my comments. I will definitely take a look at each and every site!
Free Pro Hosting Package
Have you heard about the contest I'm running on Everyday Randomness? If you haven't, you really should go check it out. My wonderful web host, 2CheapBlogs, has decided to give away a free hosting and domain package for a year to two lucky bloggers! The packages are a $45 value, and this is your chance to move away from free hosting without having to pay a penny! Entering is super easy. All you have to do is write a short blog post and/or digg the contest post! The first drawing will be held June 17th, and the second drawing will be on July 1st. If you get your entry in by June 16th you're eligible for both drawings, so that's 2 chances to win!
