Everyday Randomness

Beer Drinkers Contest

Do you drink light beer? If you do you could be a winner just for participating in a quick survey with your mobile phone. I’m thinking about entering this little contest because you only have to answer 10 questions via text, and the chances of winning are about 1 in 1500. That’s pretty good odds. What could you win? The prize is a $300 Amazon Gift Certificate, and I could definitely use that!

The questions ask you about stuff like what kind of light beer you drink, the last time you drank a beer, and who you were with when you drank your last light beer. Those are pretty easy questions to answer, right?

I can already tell you I drank my last beer on New Year’s hanging out with all my friends at our New Year’s party. What kind was it? I’m a Bud Light girl.

The survey contest began March 1st and will end March 14th at at midnight, so check out the contest rules if you want to enter. Then all you have to do is text the word “beer” to 247365. If you don’t have an unlimited texting package like I do standard message rates will apply for your carrier. Don’t forget you also need to be at least 21 to participate, but if you drink beer take a shot at winning a gift certificate!

The Good News:

I’m not on the verge of crying anymore. I don’t know what that was all about, but I watched a movie, and the feeling went away.

The Bad News:
My all natural laundry soap still hasn’t arrived, and I’m out of clean clothes that haven’t been washed in regular detergent. I had to wash my bath robe with Purex earlier tonight because Alley puked on it. I pulled it out of the dryer fresh and warm, took a shower, and here I am 10 minutes later breaking out and itching all over again. I’m going to pick up a small bottle of All Free & Clear tomorrow to have on hand as my backup, and I shot an email to my laundry soap lady to see why it hasn’t arrived yet.

I’ve ordered from her plenty of times before, and yes it does normally take a couple weeks to get here, but this is going on 3 weeks. I know there’s no way she wouldn’t send it, so I shot her an email to make sure it didn’t get lost in shipping. It could very easily be delayed.

For some reason my Woot order has been delayed. It’s been stuck in Charlotte since the 25th and is marked for delivery on Feb. 2nd. Why I don’t know, but I’ve learned to live by the old Woot forums rule. Buy it, forget about it, and by the time it arrives it’s like opening a present because you can’t remember what you ordered! I actually HAD forgotten about my Woot order until hubby asked me about it today. I picked up 2 512mb Sandisk Sansa MP3 players for $20. Those are totally going in my gift drawer as I’m sure they’ll each make nice birthday presents for someone. If I like the controls on these better than my old school Sandisk I might just use one for myself and pass my old one along to someone else…

or give it away as a blog contest. We’ll just have to see. I don’t know if anyone would be interested in winning it because it’s Sandisk MX1 and it’s only a 512mb although that’s plenty big enough for me. You can check out the review I wrote about it here. Mine is the blue one. Hubby has the red one which is a 256mb, but he loves it.

Congrats To RPGraphics

I’ve got to do this now before I forget again! I even wrote myself two sticky notes, and left them on my desk so I’d remember to do this, but of course both notes were covered by tons of random junk, so I forgot yet again.

Don’t worry Lisa, I remembered your contest that’s celebrating something super amazing. RPGraphics.net will be 10 years old tomorrow! Happy early birthday to the site! To celebrate Lisa is giving away a $20 Amazon Gift Certificate to one lucky reader. How do you enter? Well if you want to know you’re just going to have to head to RPGraphics to find out, but hurry up because the drawing is tomorrow night!

Kat’s Awesome Contest

Kat is having another awesome contest, and this time she’s giving away a $25 gift certificate to one of my favorite stores Bed, Bath & Beyond! I’m totally entering this one! If you would like to enter she’s got very simple rules that are easy to follow. All you have to do is leave a comment on the blog post to be entered, but don’t forget to use a valid email addy so she can contact you. You can also get a 2nd entry by writing a blog post about the contest. I was going to write about it anyway, but I’ll be happy to take the 2nd entry as well!

The contest began yesterday and will run through January 18th. On January 19th she’ll conduct a video drawing for the winner. I’m sure she’ll have one of her little helpers around to draw the name!
