So I have kind of a weird life. My husband works for Procter & Gamble, so we frequently get huge amounts of P&G products (usually laundry products, like Tide, Bounce, Downy, etc., but also diapers and wipes, deodorant, and CoverGirl foundation for people with a MUCH darker complexion than I have). Then we also frequently get blog-related products to sample, many of which I end up using and loving and also many of which get shoved into a corner cupboard somewhere.
Here’s the deal: I need to downsize. So I want to give someone some of my stuff. I don’t know what stuff it will be yet, but I can pretty much guarantee it will include more dryer sheets than you’ll ever know what to do with and some cookbooks (I have waaaaaaaay too many).
Here’s what I do know:
- It will be at least $100 worth of stuff.
- It will all either be new (I’m not going to send you a half-used bottle of shampoo) or like-new (it might be a kitchen tool I’ve only used once or twice and don’t have space for.)
- You may not want it all. In that case, you are more than welcome to make your newly-acquired stuff someone else’s stuff.
- I will try and tailor at least some of the stuff to your own needs/wants/interests. Like I said, I have a lot of stuff.
If you want to take a box of stuff off my hands, tell me a random fact about yourself. Like, for instance, if I were entering, I might say, “Hi, I’m Kate, and I can’t buy metal appliances without touching them first because there are some types of metal that I can’t touch without getting the shivers.”
A few rules:
- The giveaway ends the evening of October 9. I’ll pick a winner and announce it in my post on Friday, October 10.
- It’s only open to residents of the United States.
- Enter with your name and an email address that you check frequently.
What a fun idea for a giveaway! I can’t STAND wooden spoons or spatulas with wooden handles. I hate to touch them & hate to hear it scrape on the bottom of a pan. {{shivers}}
YAY! I thought I was the only one who had this phobia!!! I can’t stand popsicle sticks, either. The thought of licking a wooden spoon causes me to physically shudder.
I’m Alaine, I grew up in Europe as a miltary brat and am super proud of it.
I’m Lynne and I just LOVE the cooler fall weather!
My name is Wendy. I am probably your typical blog follower – I ADORE cookbooks (and food, of course). I have two boys. I like to craft and read.
We had such a blast making your ginormous bubble recipe and the homemade noodle recipe is next up on my to-do list. Thanks for sharing all your great recipes!
Hi! I Regina I love to bake and do it every day! This give away sounds fun! Thanks!
My name is Tammy and I’m addicted to pretty much any kitchen stuffff! I have a special connection with spatulas…I have no idea why!!
What a fun giveaway! I love to organize things and to check things off of my to-do list (which I only write on paper… with colored pens)!
Hi, I’m Kara, and I have a borderline addiction to ice cream. 🙂
H! I’m Maren and I’m not allergic to mosquitoes. They still bite me but I don’t get the itchy red bumps. It’s my super power.
I am so incredibly jealous. I didn’t even know that was possible.
I am hard on myself. I am also very compassionate to other people.
Hi I’m Angie & I can’t stand for people, especially my kids, to smack gum….it drives me NUTS!!
Hi! I am Allison and I have a thing about vaseline. I love the stuff. I use it for everything and can’t travel without it. I have been known to forget it and before I can do anything on vacation, I have to stop at a store to buy some more vaseline. I might have a problem. 🙂
I’m Stephanie and I have to touch everything, especially when shopping. I’m even tempted to touch things in museums! (I can usually resist.)
This is a fun idea ! Random fact, my hubby is deploying to Afghanistan 2 weeks from today. 🙁
Hi, I’m Tamara 🙂 I really like to cook and try new recipes, but my husband would be happy to eat tacoes every night for the rest of his life! I’m also pregnant with #3 right now and due on Thanksgiving day but really hoping this baby is a week early. I can’t stand the thought of eating a thanksgiving meal from the hospital cafeteria!!
Hello, I’m Deborah. I think men in flip flops are disgusting.
Hi Kate! I’m sure you have some great stuff! I’m a grown woman and I still run and jump onto my bed at night so nothing can grab my feet from underneath the bed.
Hey I’m Daphne and I love New cleaning supplies, it makes me excited to clean! I also love all different kinds of kitchen gadgets even if I only use them once. I also love everything to do with the month October!!!
Hi, I’m Shauna and would love to live in Oregon or Washington, but I’m afraid I’d miss the sunshine too much!! (I live in NorCal)
Hi! I am Ashley and I love reading and review YA books!
I thought I would go for really random: in high school, I once wrote a paper comparing “A Tale of Two Cities” to “Three Little Pigs.”
Hi, I’m Robbin and I had 2 of my 4 kids in an ambulance!
My name is Ruth and I get to clean up my child’s vomit daily (feeding tube/oral aversion) so I would LOVE to get a box of fun stuff to brighten my day 🙂
Hi, my name is Heather, and just the thought of a wooden Popsicle stick scraping against my teeth is enough to send me into orbit.
ME TOO! I love this blog post! I thought I was the only one! The thought of licking a wooden spoon also makes me want to die.
Hi I am Shelly and I hate boogers in my kids nose. If I can see them, they have to be removed. They can either blow their nose or I will attack them with a tissue myself. I just can’t stand to look at boogers….ewww.
Hi, I’m Heather mother of three. I was born on Christmas Eve and married a man whose last name is Messiah. 🙂
Hi Kate, I’m Lisa. This week I started listening to Christmas music…in Spanish. I don’t actually speak Spanish but I felt like Christmas songs were a good place to start. Also I feel a lot better about listening to Christmas music if I can’t understand most of it anyway.
Hi, I’m Danielle, and if my lips/tongue/teeth touch the wooden stick of a popsicle it makes me gag.
Hi, I’m Sara and I can burp on command and my kindergarten students think it’s awesome!
I’m Jordyn and I have always disliked any type of Asian food.
