CSN Gift Certificate Giveaway!

It's been awhile, but it's Giveaway Time!  Just in time for some last minute shopping, a $35 gift certificate from CSN's 200+ online stores.  I've spent way too long just browsing their offerings.  Here's just a sampling that caught my eye.  

1.  Delsey Luggage.  Miriam needs a carry-on now that she's big enough to haul it.
2.  A set of these fab green cereal bowls.  Breakfast would be a pleasure
3.  Ok, so $35 wouldn't put a dent in the price, but doesn't that couch look so crisp.  It says "I am a grown up."
4.  Pizza kit for the kids.
5.  I LOVE this doll.  She is happy, bright, and looks like me!
6.  Miriam and Jesse would go gaga over this habitat.  Fish! Bugs! Plants! Triops!  All living on your desk!

Isn't the variety amazing! Don't you want to come over to my house and eat cereal in green bowls with me?

*CSN only ships to Canada and the US, so sorry my more international friends.  There may be international shipping charges to Canada.

From My House to Yours

Following Brooke's lead, I'm going to post some giveaways for the next 3 weeks. I'm finally ready to face reality. We're moving and we have tons of stuff (and isn't it so much nicer when it goes to someone who really wants it?). So here's the first one. Seeds. Eggplant, lettuce, carrots, and a few watermelon seeds. Post a comment if you are desirous. And these are pick up only (sorry my friends in far off places).

Car Owners with Jam

Thanks to all that were concerned about us and our search for the car. We found it. It's the same car we had before, now in the station wagon version and in an appealing turquiose color. It was dirt cheap. So cheap that I'm thinking of getting a new radio with an mp3 hook up for it. Needs a tune up and oil change. But we have our trusty mechanic here in Roseburg to check it out before we take it on the road. And we got towing included on the insurance, so we're good to go. Just have to make sure we have the cell phone with us.

So now I can worry about more important things. Like Jam. Marionberry, blueberry, cherry, grape. Which do I make? Luckily, I don't think this decision will keep me up at night.

Tell me which one you'd like, and if I'm going to see you in the next two weeks (Sacramento and Irvine), I'll hand deliver a jar to you.

Giveaway Winner

Is...Anonymous, aka, my mom who entered for my Auntie Wendy. Promise, no nepotism here. Random.org picked the number. So Ma, send me Auntie Wendy's address. Sorry Rena. I promise you something perfect when I get back.

Watch out for an Oregon giveaway (not ganja). But perhaps some blackberry jam!

Last Giveaway

Rena has persuaded me to have one last giveaway. I'm leaving on Wednesday (that's Tuesday in the states), so this one has to be quick. You have until Sunday midnight in Japan. So that's Sunday around 3 am in LA. And you have to get me your address quick like a bunny 'cause I'm going to the post office to send Mariko's taiyaki pan and a cool match game for Amy (got one for our kids, so you can come play August 26 in Irvine) and the cool giveaway to who?

So what's your prize? Well...
DOUG
HNUT socks
and
1/2 meter of Little Red
and
assorted dollar store goodies

Is that fun enough?

giveaway winners

Yay to rachel who said...

I have got to have one of these bags! How wonderful. I hope I win! yay! Cheers!

And to Lenna who thinks she doesn't know me well enough to sleep on my floor. She's wrong. But she does win a bag.

You can contact me through my profile. So exciting!!!

What should I give away this week????

Giveaway

I found these fun little canvas bags at the 100 yen store today. I went in for salt, but they didn't have any. So I got four Engrish bags, a file folder for primary, and some caramels. And since I have no need for four bags, I'm giving one away!

This fun apple bag is for the winner. Just leave a comment on this post by Saturday 11:59 pm Japan time and I'll randomly choose the winners. Good luck! (and I ship internationally, of course!)
Jesse just mentioned that I have no need for three bags, so I'll be giving away another bag as well. And of course I'll fill them with wondrous 100 yen treats (guarana gum, morinaga caramels, obento erasers...)

Winner

Wow! That was fun. Brandy, you're our winner. This is pretty exciting because you're the only person who reads my blog that I don't know! Shoot me an email at bekahtanoatgmaildotcom and I'll get your package in the mail.

Gee! What should I put up for next week?!
