The Great Kid Giveaway!!

by Kelly on July 18, 2008

in Giveaways

Here’s the fourth giveaway to celebrate Almost Frugal! And no, I’m not giving away any kids, mine or yours, but rather some very cool kid stuff. If you’re not a kid yourself don’t worry! There will be a giveaway for some fun (and family-friendly) grown-up gifts next month.

Option 1: Play Corn Back at my previous site, I posted on some of the frugal things my kids enjoy. One of those things is Play Corn. I think this stuff is so incredibly cool: it’s creative, frugal and environmentally sound, all in one. As fas as I know this is not available in the US, so here’s your chance to win a box of 500 pellets (that’s not as overwhelming as you might think) of environmental fun.

Option 2: Kllycat’s Babycat Goods Store Credit I’m giving away $20 in store credit to my Etsy shop Kllycat’s Babycat Goods. You could get a diaper envelope and a wrap spoon holder. Or a baby blanket gift set. Your choice- $20 worth, and this includes shipping costs!

Option 3: A Kiddopotamus portable placemat in pink. This is a very cool placemat that turns any table into a clean eating surface for your baby. It sticks to a flat surface and rolls up for easy transport. Plus, it has a ’scoop catcher’ which catches all those little morsels of green beans or hot dog before they hit the floor- that much less apologizing you’ll have to do to the server at your favorite restaurant.

There are three ways to enter, and you can do all three! The first is by leaving a comment in this post, and telling me which item you would like to win. This earns you one chance in the drawing. Or subscribe to Almost Frugal’s feed by either RSS or by email, and email me the secret code you see at the bottom of the feed- this gets you two additional entries. (You don’t have to be a new subscriber to enter, just email me the code!) To get a fourth, fifth and sixth entry (three extra chances basically), post about this giveaway on your blog, and let me know about it by leaving a comment or sending me an email.

The contest begins July 18, 2008 at noon my time, and ends July 28, 2008 also at noon my time. It is open to people worldwide. The winner will be chosen randomly. Don’t miss out, enter now!

Oooh, the play corn sounds awesome! We have some packing peanuts that are made of cornstarch and dissolve in water – wonder if these are anything like that? Sounds great, though!

Oooh, that play corn looks like a great, sensory toy for my kiddo, who has Sensory Processing Disorder! She’s always in need of extra sensory input and that stuff looks like it would provide a whole new level beyond play doh!

Thanks for the chance! Cheers!
