Behind in the rankings, but still want to win? Here's your chance! Your can leave lots of good karma comments! Post either a fun memory we have together, talk about your favorite blog posting of mine, or an ego-stroking compliment for me. Feel free to leave multiple comments on this one, as long as it has substance. Make sure each one is genuine and more than just "You're really nice" or "Have a great summer," like those comments from my yearbook that I roll my eyes at.

March Madness - CCCC edition

Hello friends, readers and blog stalkers!

Today begins March Madness - and as much as some love the NCAA...this March Madness is CuteCultureChick Comment edition (CCCC)! What this means, is that I'm going to reward the person who comments on my blog the most until April 6th (which is when the NCAA champion game will be played in Detroit)

The prize is two-fold...

I will make a custom care package to send to you upon winning AND I will do a bio of you on my blog. If we've been long-time friends, there will be pics of us together, funny stories, etc. If we don't know each other well, I will create a bio from what I know about you from your blog, Facebook, PWC, etc. Or if you don't want a bio, I can do a review of your favorite album, or advertise your website or business. I have a comment tracker that lets me know when you post a comment, and all previous historical blog posts count too! I started tracking from 12:00 am this morning, and I've got two comments so far!

Let the games begin!

Prize Winners

Apparently I'm not good at getting people to comment on my blog, or submit for my giveaways. Which is kinda funny because I get 40-100 hits a day, and I always try for the free stuff on other people's blogs (but haven't ever won). Someday I'll post truly fabulous prizes worth entering for (like when we're out of debt?) However, there were two entries on my blog button contest, and by my secret random selection process...

The grand prize winner is...

HIZZEATHER!

Runner-up is...

TRIPACERCHICK!

Heather has won a gift card to a place that will be useful for her upcoming wedding this month (plus I'll throw in a little extra for your wedding gift just in case I can't make it to CA for the reception). Jen has won a selection of a few of my favorite things. Ladies, message me with your mailing address and await the splendor!

You'll be eligible to win a fabulous secret prize (valued at $10) Must complete by Wednesday, January 7 at 9:00 pm EST to be eligible.
