May 2010 Giveaway! 9 Shops & 9 Winners! (Insanely Easy to Enter)

THIS  GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED.  DISCOUNTS REMAIN VALID UNTIL THEIR EXPIRATION.

La-la-la-ladies, it’s giveaway time!!  Of course, all you have to do to enter is leave a comment.  But, if you want a couple bonus entries (believe me, they help lots), do #2 (not the bathroom kind) and #3, as well.

1.  Entry – Leave a comment.  Just like that, you’re entered.
2.  Bonus Entry - In your comment tell us something you need ideas for or a subject you would like to see posted about on our blog.  We will save it under our “post requests,” so be sure to check back often to see it covered!
3.  Bonus Entry - Find your most favorite blog post of ours and share it with your friends via Facebook, Twitter, or your blog.  Be sure to let us know in your comment what your favorite is, we’re curious!

Alright, have a grand ole time!  Let’s get to the goods…oh, wait…the giveaway runs until this coming Saturday (May 29th) and the winners will be announced on this blog Sunday evening.  And, I feel dorky saying this…but, there’s always someone that needs to know…if you win, you don’t win a prize from every shop…it’s from one of the shops.  But, that’s still a rockin’ deal.  Have fun!

  6. Wow! Those are some great prizes. Thanks for hosting! :)

  7. I need significant help on gardening for those with a black thumb and no time. I’d love to see some info for those of us that CAN’T name what kind of plant it is, forget to water, and fail to completely weed. :)

  8. What cool prizes this month! I love the clutch, and the amber … wow!

  9. It’s not too early to be thinking about Christmas! I’d love a post with UNIQUE homemade ideas, beyond the calendar, coffee mug, etc. I love to make gifts for those hard-to-buy for friends and family, and especially for those who are not expecting a gift.

  10. I posted about Roberta’s balloon flip flops here:

    http://taulmantimes.blogspot.com/2010/05/balloon-flip-flops.html

    Have a great day!

  11. what fabulous goodies!!! you found some lovely giveaway items-thanks for the chance!

  12. would love to see you guys do a post on blog etiquette…both as far as bloggers and commenters go! I’ve seen a few bloggers touch it, but it’s always a timely, necessary topic!

  13. These prizes are awesome! I can’t even pick my favorite.

  14. I would love to read a post about how you approach blogging…. scheduling? how you brainstorm post ideas? design? how to get readers? etc. Thanks!

  17. GREAT giveaways! Thanks for the chance. I would love to see a post about ideas to keep kids busy this summer. Or, a great cheap microderabrasion recipe– it just so happens I have that one!

  18. Lovely Shops! Thanks for the giveaway!

  19. YAY!! Love this!! BTW, Rubio’s is the BEST!!

  20. I would love a post on what chores you can give to your 4 year old!! I want her to start helping out a lot more but I don’t know what she is really capable of at this point???

  21. I’m pretty new to reading this blog, but I love it so far! I would like some new ideas (crafts, games, outdoor activities) for keeping my preschooler busy during the summer.

  22. I love give a way time!!

  23. I would like a post on how to get your tweens/teens to open up more. I hate when you ask what is wrong and you get “nothing”.

    My favorite post is one by Erin D about what to do to not feel so bad. I LOVE her writing style (it feels like she’s sitting in my living room talking to me) and her ideas are great (I definitely went and tried a bunch of them that day!) Her post was the one that got me hooked on OneSheTwoShe and now I check it everyday! I love most of the posts I read, but that one was my fave and I shared it on my facebook!
    My email address (as I don’t have a blog, I am just an admirer) is simplyfungal@yahoo.com. Okay, so it’s simply fun gal, not fungal… because I’m a fun gal– do you get it? I’m not a weirdo–most of the time:) So that’s three entries! WaHoo! Thanks for such a rockin fun blog!

  31. A Maze Ing – as always… a favorite is impossible, but my drool might have been more obvious while ogling the Ohana jewelry…

  32. I’m going to second the need for a gardening post… for all of us gardening dummies out there!

    I also liked the idea above about basic blog etiquette…

    Or maybe a post about all those amazing ladies that manage to fit exercise into their daily routine… seriously, dishwashing squats… Laundry lunges… odd, but true – and something has got to tone that tush of mine :)

  169. Wow, you’ve found some amazing products! Impressive!

  170. I definitely could use some guidance in the seasonings/spices department. I would like to see something about which seasonings/spices work well with different types of food. When it comes to “seasoning to taste” I fail. I don’t do much beyond salt and pepper.

  249. Um, I’m drooling right now over the Rubios gift card. And the other giveaways look pretty drool-worthy too. That would be so fun if I won . . . but I usually don’t so I probably won’t(using reverse psychology).

    I would love a post on how to make a cool blog header.

  263. A comment.

  264. Was just introduced to your blog today. So my favorite post is what led me here. The post Ashley wrote about the death of her first husband. Amazing.

    Awesome blog!!
    kamiebotkin@gmail.com

  265. I comment…

    I bonus: I really would like a messy hair up-do post because I can’t ever figure out how people do theirs.

    I referrd, blogged and posted about my own post on infertility and still send friends to that post occasionally. Tooting my own horn? Maybe, but still…

  266. Thanks for the chance!

  268. I would love a post about YOUR favorite summer items(Im always up for a freaking sweet must have item…like lotions, etc.) and also your favorite summer items for your kids. It is our first summer in our new home in HOT Texas(Yeee-haw!). But I need stuff to help me and my 18 mon old son survive the heat and things great for the pool.
    86.megan@gmail.com

  269. I really love all your posts.. There are some amazing women on here, including yourselves that really inspire me. I really liked the most recent one “How death changed my perspective.” It really made me look at my marriage.

    I also always think “sharing bathroom with man one and two” are classics. down right hilarious really. I have shared the “sharing the bathroom…” one with pretty much every wife and woman I know. and especially newlyweds. those girls need to know what the heck they are getting into. hahahaha
