Holiday Giftguide + 7 DAYS OF GIVEAWAYS!

Happy Wednesday, Noshers!  I know, Wednesday sometimes gets a bad rap, smack dab in the middle of the work week.  Well, turn that frown upside down because I’ve been working hard these past few weeks on something for all of you, and today I finally get to share! It’s pretty much all in the title – that’s right; tomorrow I will be kicking off 7 DAYS OF GIVEAWAYS!  Get excited, y’all!

My cat is overflowing with excitement over these giveaways! Obviously.

This whole year, I’ve kept an eye out for my favorite food, dining, cooking and baking items – all with the intent of putting together an epic gift guide for you this holiday season.  For the past month, I’ve been working with various companies and vendors to secure my favorite products to give away to all of you.  These are items that I’ve personally tried, loved, and want to share with you – they would make great gifts to give to friends or loved ones, and great items for you to win!  Are you excited yet? 🙂

Because this is the first time I’ll be holding a week-long gift guide, I put together a list of FAQ so that we’re all on the same page.  So read them, study them and get ready to submit those entries starting tomorrow!

Some questions I know you’re dying to get the answers to…

1.  Can I enter more than one giveaway?
YES!  You can enter all seven giveaways if you’d like, and I’d highly encourage you to do so.  You gotta be in it to win it!

2. Can I win more than one giveaway?
YES!  Each giveaway is independent of the others, and as long as you submit a legitimate entry for a particular giveaway, you will have a chance at winning that giveaway.  I use Rafflecopter to moderate each giveaway, and there’s a function within the widget that randomly chooses the winner.   Rafflecopter does not know if you’ve won any of the previous days’ giveaways, so if it picks you again, you’re in luck!

3. How long will each giveaway run?
These are quick giveaways – each giveaway ends at midnight EST on that day.  So no dillydallying on getting those entries in!

4. I live in “X” location – can I still enter?
YES.  Anyone is allowed to enter, regardless of geographic location.  However, please note that some prizes have shipping restrictions – they will be noted in the “Terms and Conditions” section of the Rafflecopter widget in that particular giveaway’s post.  If you live outside of the shipping area of a particular prize, you are welcome to gift that prize to a friend or family member living within the shipping area should you win.

5.  I really want “X” prize, and I never win anything!  Can you put in a good word for me with the rafflecopter?
I can try, but rafflecopter seems pretty stoic and objective.  I don’t think it will make a difference.

6. How did you decide which items to include in your Holiday Gift guide?
Easy peasy.  I try, sample and use many food-related items throughout the year in my capacity as a food blogger.  All of the items included in my gift guide are ones that I’ve unequivocally decided that I’d love to get or give as a gift based on my positive experience with said item.

That’s all, folks!  Get ready, get excited, and may the giveaway gods shine down upon you favorably! See you back at the blog bright and early tomorrow! 🙂
