i won! i won!

13 years ago

I downloaded an app to my cell phone for Canadian Living Magazine and must have either automatically been entered to win a prize, or I entered it myself. I honestly don't remember as I do enter quite a few contests online.

Over the years I've won an LG microwave/toaster combination from the tv station (gave it to my daughter)

A Febreese gift basket worth $125 last year which included air fresheners, fabric refresheners, candles and a cookbook. (online contest)

A gift basket from the Alberta Egg board worth about $100 that included 2 microwaveable egg cookers, a cook book, fridge magnet, oven mitts and an apron. (online contest)

I won a live lobster and a gift certificate to a restaurant a few years back from the tv station.

What did I win this time?? I'm so excited!! Who said french fries can't be healthy!!! Check this out:

I wonder if they were only 3 inches if they needed to be potted longer? Just a guess - I've never grown them from cuttings.

So the cat's outta the bag. Here's what happened. I thought, shucks, I can make more of these, and you all were so sweet and enthusiastic... I'll just have one main winner and make 8x10s for everyone else who entered. But the first batch turned out awful. The colors were too vivid. So I had to reprint them using a different program and I've gotta say, it takes quite a while to print these things. Anyway, when I was looking for something else, I ran across another print of the same thing, even bigger than the extra I had. So I made that the grand prize, which Shaun won, and then drew again. Annie (hope I'm not telling tales out of school) won the second prize but since she really liked another print more than that one, I decided to make her the one she wanted. Third place went to Chase, who actually got the original extra print. I've already told her to keep her eyes peeled for it. So everyone got something and I hope you all enjoy your prints. A big shout out to AnnT, who so graciously supplied me with ALL of your addresses. I wouldn't be so presumptuous, but Ann, if you wanted a print of something, I would be more than happy to send you one.

Wow, I wasn't expecting it to arrive until early next week. Rita, I hope you enjoy using your Board. It was made by Moe, just for you. This finally brings the last swap to a close. If there is enough interest, I'll do another swap early in the New Year. Ann

I hope so for the blogger but this kind of bullying is exactly the kind of BS behavior that really gets my goat. That is not how to win customers. Scott

Congrats. Enjoy!!!!
All I've ever won was a darn shotgun in a raffle, and I despise guns. Just my opinion, not intending to open a discussion, I sold it to the local hardware store.

What an interesting cooker. Never heard of it before today.
You should make some fries and tell us what you think of them. :D

I've seen them in the store, but would never buy one. Two of my neices want one but ran when they saw how expensive they are. I can't wait to get it now. I was going to give it to my son, because I have a T-Fal deep fryer. I thought I won the same one. When I got home and got the email with the letter I had to sign and return, it said which one I got. I googled and almost had to change my pants when I saw how expensive it is. I told my son I would just buy him a nice one instead. LOL
