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.
Hi!! I’m Stephanie and I’m always in a hurry yet I am never late or running behind. Just have trouble slowing down I guess! 🙂
Hi, I’m Brooke. I don’t like pumpkin spice lattes, or pumpkin anything else, except pumpkin pie!
I’m Melissa and if I have to drink water out of the bathroom sink it makes me gag. (Even though I’m perfectly aware it is the same water that comes out of the kitchen sink.)
I am a kindergarten paraprofessional which I love but I dislike walking the kids down the hall and waiting for them to use the bathroom. (All of this is part of my job).
What a fun way to enter! Love it!
My name is Molly, and I wish it was acceptable to always be barefoot.
Hi Kate, My name is Ursula. I am a musician, I have 3 kids and therefore a LOT of laundry, I love pasta and I love to bake.

Hi, I’m Lisa and I don’t kill spiders… I trap them and let them loose outside. They kill mosquitos and flies, both of which are ridiculously attracted to me, so I save the spiders 🙂
Hi i love how much fun you have given to me and my 8 grandchildren. They all laugh at me I bring one of your books each time we see each other. I read it to them and we try a recipe and cook it or do a craft. They are all being brought up BEST BITE style. Thank you for all you do for all of us. The kids are so excited about the contest. Thanks
Late to the party,but made it in time for the fun. Love cooking, needlepoint, knitting, and creating a warm and welcoming home for my family and friends.
Hi, I’m Jennifer, and this is my favorite time of year!! I love cozy days watching football, drinking warm drinks, and chilling out (too bad as a mom that happens rarely)!

I’m Tara and I love making lists just so I can cross things off and feel like I’ve accomplished something.
I have an annoying habit of typing things that I read or that people say. My husband will be holding my hand and ask, “Are you typing what I am saying again?!”
I’m Kelly, and here’s a very random fact about me: I have been stung by both a bee and a scorpion, both in sleeping bags, but on separate occasions…..and I don’t even go camping that much. LIke I have probably only been a total of 5 times in my life….Another random fact: I would LOVE to take your old junk off your hands! 🙂

I used to drive the train at Lagoon for my summer job, and I once accidentally ran over a goose with said train… I think the poor kids on the train were scarred forever!

What a fun giveaway! I’m Leslie and if I had the capital, I would quit my job and open a yarn store.
I’m Anjie and I go through phases. Like, I will make menus and cook for 3 months as at time and then BAM! I stop cooking and making menus and my family eats whatever they can find or take-out for 3 months. It is the same way with cleaning/being tidy. 🙂
