Pay it Forward Contest—you, too, could win something totally random!
Posted by houndrat on Tuesday Jul 1, 2008 Under contest, random stuffSo, I was just surfing the blogosphere (okay, call it procrastinating, if you must), and came across Swistle’s site. Apparently, she’s running a “Pay It Foward” contest. No, you don’t have to run out and buy anyone a new Mercedes, and hopefully, no small children are going to die in our version. Alas, there’s no Kevin Spacey involvement, either. Although he should feel free to comment on my blog as well.
Basically, what this contest entails is you commenting on a list of participating blog sites, including mine, found on the Swistle site. Comment as often as you like up through July 4th. At that time, a random winner will be picked from each site to win a PRIZE!
And I’ll even do you one better—I promise, PROMISE, not to get your prize from the Target dollar bins. Or is that actually disappointing? I cannot, however, promise that the prize will be something entirely un-bizarre, because you never know which neurons will be firing in my brain at any given moment. For some reason, though, I think the neurons associated with random, peculiar behavior fire a lot more. At least in my head.
So, there you have it! Keep commenting, and maybe you, too, can win something cool. Or something totally useless. Or disgusting. But, hey, you’ll never know, unless you comment!

the last thing I found in the target dollar bins were some Curious George stamps! Yay for pifs!

Looked through your site after reading your comment on SeeMOMMYrun. Beautiful dogs!!!

I’m hoping for something cool. Not so much the useless or disgusting. K Thanks!

I too, am addicted to the $ bins. Damn them! Is that what causes so much of my household clutter? And how come it’s just as easy for the $2.50 items to find their way into my cart as well? Oh and another thing. I wanna win.

I love Target but not the dollar bins. Ooh and love homemade cookies!!

Someone should email Mr. Spacey and get him in on this.
July 2nd, 2008 at 4:13 pm
Bizarre is always good.
July 2nd, 2008 at 11:17 pm

Would love to win a mystery prize, fun!

Your posts truly capture the hilarity of living with rhodesian ridgebacks and also raising kids (and oh, yeah, a husband too). I do wonder if you keep making such fun of dear Fergie how is she going to develop the dignity and decorum that a champion show dog needs?
July 3rd, 2008 at 6:45 pm
What kind of hounds? Suprise prizes are…..well….suprising!
July 3rd, 2008 at 10:09 pm
I love Swistle and I love all of these contests.
July 3rd, 2008 at 10:37 pm
I LOVE that you are pushing for the local rescues etc vs online puppy purchases. Yay, you!
Can’t wait to hear what your surprise prizes is!
July 3rd, 2008 at 10:50 pm
*raises hand* i need something disgusting!
July 4th, 2008 at 9:13 am
I’m in!
July 4th, 2008 at 10:27 am
Minnie’s comment made me laugh, but I was thinking that too…what could it BE? I want something disgusting!

I would totally love Target $1 bin things. I don’t have a Target here nearby, and when I get there I always end up buying several things from the dollar bins.
July 4th, 2008 at 7:20 pm
Yay for non-Target!
July 6th, 2008 at 6:20 pm
I’m happy either way-Target or non-Target-I.just.wanna.win.damn.it.
