Day 14 Giveaway - sorry I am late

Hello Everyone! Sorry I am running behind today. I spent the day yesterday with one of my Sisters, Terry, and we went junking (thrift shopping) in Gape Giradeau, MO. We left at 8:30am and didn't get back until nearly 8pm. We both had a great time, we found some wonderful bargains (which I will post pictures and write about later when I get the pictures taken) for some things I had been needing and on others that I just wanted. I love spending the day junking with my Sisters, but I don't do it as often as we used to because I usually end up paying dearly for it in pain. The last time I went with Lynn, my other Sister, it took me a full 7 days to recoup from that outing. That whole week was a loss to me as I was unable to do much of anything as my pain level was in the 10+ range. So for obvious reasons I don't get out to junk too often, and when I do it is a real treat.

On to today's giveaway. It is another sticky note pad, but this time there is no pen included and the paper is black... for using gel pens. Hmmmm... maybe I will include a full size gel pen. Well see.


As always there are the rules that must be followed.... unfortunately. But if you want to win, you have too. Good Luck! It's open World wide, so no matter where you live, you can enter. I also wanted to tell you, that for the last 1/2 of the 29 days of giveaways, I have a few special items planned, so please keep checking back daily to see what is up for grabs.


**Mandatory Entry**
Post a comment to my question:

Do you like to go junk shopping? And if so, what do you usually ALWAYS look for when you go?

my answer: I absolutely love to go junking (if I were physically up to it I would go every time I was invited). When I do go, I always look for crafting supplies or items I can use in my artwork.

  2. What IS junk shopping? As I gather lots of stuff anyway, I try to limit my shopping right now to what I really NEED- I also have to economize...

  6. I love to go "junking", (I call it yardsale-ing) but I don't get to go very often. When I do, I always look for rubber stamps.

  8. I'm well known at the local Goodwill, so yes, I love junk shopping (can't wait until the Yard Sales start up again). I always tend to gravitate towards anything breakable. My family and I laugh about it all the time. What is about me and things that go CRASH when they fall?

  16. I rarely get the chance to go junking but I do like to look out for pieces of furniture that can be adapted and renovated.

  22. Hi BrendaLea,

    I would love to go junk shopping if that were an option. Here in Germany, we don't have thrift shops, you see... Well, I would love to look for things which can be used in mixed media art projects -- and also everything which has to do with Tomb Raider. :)

    Hugs,
    Birgit
