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. Â 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.
I’m Julie and I get a thrill out of grocery shopping and meal planning. I make my grocery list by aisle and love weaving in and out of the aisles and never looking back.
HI, I’m Kay and I’m obsessed with outgear gear. I have to refrain from attending REI garage sales for fear of breaking the bank
My name is Marybeth and I have a collection of antique cake carriers.
Kate, this is so fun! I have a hard time with certain smells, I can’t stand being in tire departments, used bookstores, and thrift stores.
Hi Kate, I’m Natalie! I hate talking on the phone and love watching the Spanish TV channels (even though I don’t speak Spanish) – also, cotton balls give me the shivers… ick!
My name is Beth and I am addicted to fabric, pretty paper, and ribbons! I probably have more than I will ever use in an entire lifetime! I’m also currently pregnant with baby #5!
Hello! I am Julia, and 6 out of 8 people in my family have glasses… I’m not one of them! Also baking is what I do every Sunday, but your snickerdoodles are my fave!
I’m Sydney and reading these comments is seriously so fun. Random fact: I can’t freaking WAIT for the holidays. I take on the whole thanksgiving family for the entire family in my tiny apartment kitchen and I’m so excited.
Hi I’m Alison. I have a collection of ketchup bottles (full and unused) from around the world. I am currently at 19 bottles from 17 countries.
Hi! I’m Jennifer and I read home decor blogs every day, but with 6 kids have no time or funds to make my dream house take shape. Learning to love what I have.
I was thrown from a horse while pregnant with my first child. Don’t worry, it was early in my pregnancy and everyone was OK 🙂
Hi, I’m RitaMarie and I love Jell-o! I’m known as the Jell-o queen in my family as I bring some sort of Jell-o creation to almost every family get-together. They laugh, but then they eat it:)
Hi I’m Tarmy and have an unhealthy addiction to baked goods. If they are in my house, I eat them, even if I don’t like them. I’m trying to develop a healthier addiction to jogging to combat this, but it’s still 100 degrees where I live. Come on Fall!
When checking out at the grocery store, I have to organize everything on the little conveyor belt so that the bagger person puts items that go together in my fridge, pantry, closet, etc. Then when I get home with all my bags, I can put everything away from each bag in the places where they go together. Does that even make sense?
Hi Kate! I’m Kate. Watches stop ticking when I wear them.
Hi, Kate, I’m Andrea. I have an extreme fear of losing fingers, toes, or teeth.
Holler! I am Claire and I just gave birth to probably the sweetest and cutest little boy in existence. Just sayin’. I also have 6 names! Let’s just say my dear mother is indecisive and my father is cheap…. 🙂
I’m Lindsay and you used to babysit me when I was little! 🙂
This is awesome! I can’t clean the lint out of the dryer, I have to make my husband do it. I HATE touching the mesh part. Gives me the creepy crawlies.
Hi, I’m Jen. Before I’m even done eating a meal, I’m already thinking about what the next meal is going to be.
I’m Glenda and I count things, too, but it’s ok; I teach chemistry and we’re always counting everything!
Hi Kate, I’m Robyn and I wish I were an OCD person so that my house was always organized and clean.
Hi, I’m Erin. What I really want it an exact replica of your dvr, along with all of the shows you record. But since that won’t be happening, I’m happy with dryer sheets and used kitchen utensils! 🙂
I’m Julie and I love cake but rarely make it because my husband doesn’t like cake. The ‘frosting to cake ratio’ isn’t high enough for him. He prefers cupcakes with lots of frosting. I don’t like making cupcakes. This works out well for my waistline, but not so much for my sweet tooth! Thanks for the fun giveaway!
I chop the onions we cook with as I never cry – contact lenses 😉
I am Ann and I eat M&M’s two at a time, gotta be two different colors!
Hi – I’m Ange & I like long walks on the beach & peeling my grapefruit before eating. I would also ADORE a box of awesome STUFF (diapers, dryer sheets & anything else!)
The wiper blades on the back for cars kinda freak me out. They are like demon arms. You can be behind a car minding your own business then out of nowhere the wiper goes off. It’s startling.
Hi I’m Lynsie and I love to go to Disneyland, I’m obsessed with all things Mickey!
I’m Lisa and even if my first meal of the day is at 4pm, it still has to be breakfast food. 🙂
