You Deserve The Best Giveaway

by Lisa on November 30, 2009

**This giveaway is now closed. Thanks to all of you for taking the time to enter!**

When people asked me what I was thankful for on Thanksgiving, the first thing that came to mind was this website. Fantabulously Frugal started out as a hobby – a way for me to fill my time once I completed grad school. What it has turned into, however, is so much more than a hobby! I am thankful for the opportunities I’ve had to get to know all of you readers, Etsy shop owners, and companies. Everyday I am so thankful that one of you decided to subscribe to this site, let alone the (almost) multiple thousands of you that keep reading as well. You are all awesome and everyday you make my day. Seriously.

To share my extreme gratitude with all of you, I decided to call up a few of my favorite Fantabulously Frugal supporters (OutfitAdditions.com, BeautyTicket.com, and Go-Girl), as well as cash in a bunch of sample sale credits I’ve been saving up from RowNine, RueLaLa, Ideeli, and Gilt to create the best giveaway I could come up with because, and I cannot stress this enough, You Deserve the Best.

 Let’s get to the gifts, shall we?

Whomever wins Gift #1 won’t really need to receive any other holiday presents this year, as you’ll receive quite a bounty!  This giveaway is valued at approximately $675 and the winner of this gift will be chosen completely randomly.

Here’s what’s included (starting in the top left corner):

  • Pencil case from Etsy seller Made by Hank stuffed with little goodies
  • Paper Source note cards
  • Gold leather Kate Spade passport case
  • Gold Amrita Singh twisted hoop earrings

Gift 2 is equally as amazing as Gift 1, and is valued at approximately $550.  We’re going to change things up a bit though.  The winner of Gift 2 will be the person that refers the greatest number of people to enter this giveaway!

Here’s what’s included in Gift 2 (starting in the top left corner):

  • $50 Gift Certificate to OutfitAdditions.com
  • Paper Source note cards
  • Tom Ford Fiona Sunglasses
  • Dancing Waters Body Lotion from Bath & Body Works
  • Silver Amrita Singh twisted hoop earrings
