Gift Card Giveaway

by Kelly on July 7, 2008 · 141 comments

The contest is now closed- thanks for all the entries!

Here they are- the first three of the giveaways I’ve been promising to celebrate the launch of Almost Frugal!

Almost Frugal is giving away three $10 giftcards one each for Target, Bath and Body Works, and Barnes and Noble. Even better for the international reader, each of these gift cards is also accepted by the online retailer!

There are three ways to enter, and you can do all three, tripling your chances! The first is by leaving a comment in this post, telling me which card you would like to win. To enter a second time, subscribe to Almost Frugal’s feed by either RSS or by email, and email me the secret code you see at the bottom of all the posts. You don’t have to be a new subscriber to get a second entry – just email me the code! To get a third entry, post about this giveaway on your blog, and let me know about it.

This contest will run from noon July 7, 2008 to noon July 17, 2008, my local time. It is open to people worldwide. Edited to add: The winner will be chosen randomly.

Kelly Rigotti started Almost Frugal as a thirty-something American trying to dig her way out from under a mountain of debt (~â‚¬60,000). She's almost frugal and would like to be more so, but shops at Ikea too often for her own good.

Kelly has blogged 556 posts here.
