***Giveaway ends at 9:00 PM CST tonight! Winner will be announced shortly thereafter***
Since I have won a couple of really nice giveaways recently, I have decided to host my own. Since this is my first one and I really don't know what I'm doing, I'm sure I will make a mistake somewhere along the way. But that's okay. Let's just have fun with it.
So, on to the fun part...
I am giving away a $15 Gift Card to the store of your choosing (as long as I can order it online or purchase it locally. i.e. Walmart, Walgreens, Target, Starbucks).
This giveaway is open to anyone. Anywhere. As long as you have a mailbox. =)There are a few ways to enter.
1. Leave me a comment with either a link to your blog or your email address. (You do not have to have a blog to enter.) Just for fun, tell me where you would want your giftcard from and what you would buy.
2. Post a link to this giveaway on your blog for another entry.
3. Tell me something that we have in common that you learned from reading my blog.
Please, if you are going to do more than one of these-Leave me a separate comment for each one.
I will announce the winner on Monday, March 9th.

How fun! I would probably pick Starbucks. Love my starbucks, but sometimes feel guilty for indulging.

Okay, the second entry. I found out that we are both married to military men. Although it does require sacrifice on our parts, it can also offer wonderful opportunities! Oh, yeah, and we also both read the Nester. : )
ok if I won gift card i would spend it at walgreens along with my $5 off huggies coupons which would be great b/c as you know being in the military you dont make a lot of money so every little bit helps .

I am hosting a baby shower next week, so Walgreens or Walmart would be great. I have to buy a few last minute things and about $15 would cover it! Love you blog!

Heather at vsummerf@msn.com
I would get it to somewhere like Chilis or Rainforest Cafe since I want to take my husband out over his spring break... he is in dental school and has been putting in some long hours lately. He definately deserves a treat!
Wow, so nice of you to do a giveaway. My pick would be Walgreens.
Thanks,

If I were to win this very kind giveaway, I would choose Target. Because that is my favorite store. And I would buy a tie there for my husbands birthday (he has been admiring this tie for a while).
Thanks for the chance to win.

For my second comment-
I discovered that we both like modest, affordable clothing! Thanks for the link to a new place to shop, and of course the giveaway.

I would probably pick Wal-Mart and use it for groceries. I'm trying to spend as little out of pocket as possible these days, so that would definitely help! Thanks for this opportunity!

Haha - just read your update post about the ER visits, phone, etc. I'm a military wife myself.... why does all the "exciting" stuff happen when the husband goes TDY? I'm glad it isn't just me this happens to!
I love target. I think i would get towels. They have some pretty ones and I dont have enough.

This is so much fun!:) I think I need to have a giveaway on my blog:) Well anyway, I think I'd go with a Target card since I found two cute little outfits there that I'm hoping to buy for my little niece and nephew for Easter...maybe they'll go on sale:)
As for what we have in common...My dad was in the Airforce(Does that count?) and I also like books written by Michael & Debi Pearl (To Train Up A Child etc...) I'm sure there are at least a dozen other things that I could mention, but I better stop before this gets too long:D
I would choose Target since my kids need summer clothes/shoes -- they always seem to need clothes and shoes actually :-)

Liz, I put a link To this post over on my blog.
Oh by the way I forgot to separate my first comment into two...sorry! That's what I get for reading the directions after I comment:S
Would love a Target gift card -- either for new maternity clothes for me (Yay!), new shoes (double Yay!)...or for diapers (boring, but necessary).
Target and I would buy diapers. Thanks for the opportunity!

I would like to have a gift certificate to Starbucks. I love their coffee. It is one of my little indulgences.
I posted a link to your giveaway on my blog.

What have I learned from your blog? Well, I just followed the link from Money Saving Mom, but I looked back at your posts. I thought the article about food dyes was really interesting....esp this part: Citrus Red # 2: Injected into the skin of oranges to make them look “more” orange. Has caused cancer in animals
Seriously? They INJECT dye in oranges!!! Is nothing sacred?
I think I would pick Starbucks!! And I would buy myself a white chocolate mocha at work everyday for a week! :)
I'd want a cvs gift card so I an turn it into like $500 of stuff. :-)

Hi! I would love to win--thanks for the chance!
Hmmm, what would I choose? I could be fattening myself up on Starbucks...or buying embellishments from Michaels...or randomly shopping at Target...So many choices! =)
I guess I'll have to win to make up my mind. =)
Come visit me!

You and I are both Christian mommies trying our best to save money!
I think I would want a card for Walmart that way it would be very useful for whatever I needed.

I LOVE WALMART.MY HUSBAND WILL DO SMALL THINGS FOR ME WITH OUT ASKING JUST LIKE YOURS GOD BLESS TINA
Hm... Can you get grocery store gift cards online? If so, then one of those. It gets difficult being a college student. I hate living off of easy mac and ramen, especially since I love to cook! If not, then probably Target. I need new eyeliner. Haha.
mrigell(at)gmail(dot)com
I learned about Bellissima Modesty Boutique from your blog! Beautiful clothes!

Well friend, I can't say you have ever had this many post. I would like it to the Disney store...it is the phase Elisabeth is in right now..go figure. You are too funny an the thing I love about you is your heart!! I wish we could get together soon. I need to talk to you--so maybe I will call next week. We are involved in a furnal for one of our church member's dad. It has been a sad week for evryone. Anyway..bye--hope this giveaway was all you wanted it to be.
Hmmm... not that I ever win anything, but if I did win this one, I'd love a gc to Ann Taylor Loft... I'm in need of some new tops, and I'm tired of t-shirts and the other unflattering shirts I have! :o)
Hmmm... and something we have in common? Aside from being IFB, we both know Rena W personally, and are married to military men. That should count for more than one entry, right, since it was more than one thing in common? ;o) LOL!
I'd choose Amazon.com (if online gift cards count), and I'd buy a knitting book I've had my eye on.

Thanks for the giveaway...I would like an amazon gift card or a book store type gift card. Like you my son is demonstrating some behavior issues that I feel are a direct result of dye and other food additives. I would like to use your gift card to by the book Natural Treatments for Tics and Tourette's. We have been seeing several doctor's for my son's condition and your gift card would help me buy this book which offers a natural treatment for my son.
Thanks again for your generosity!
Jen (mom to twin boys)
i would choose walgreen's because they always have some really awesome deals:) thanks!

#3-my husband recently finished his "term" with the Army...through most of our courtship(which started in high school) and several years of our marriage he served with the Army Reserve. never really impacted us too much until he was deployed to Iraq literally 2 weeks after we were married. i thank God every day that he came home safely and we were able to start our family which now includes a dd, 3yrs and a ds, 5 mos:) long story short, i got a little taste of how crazy military life can be, and so we have at least that in common:) thanks!

I would choose the Walmart gift card to buy groceries.
