    Default New Contest

    This contest will run until March 31.

    I want/need blog comments. In an effort to increase the number of comments on my blog, I'm holding a blog comments contest. Each comment made to any of my blog entries at http://www.frugalnotebook.com , will count as one entry in this contest. This will be a random drawing, so the more entries you have, the better chances you have to win.

    I need to discipline myself better on blogging and this contest will help motivate me and hold me accountable.

    Since some members have been commenting on my blog already, they will have a small jumpstart because I will be counting their existing comments as entries. I also want to say thank you to members that have been visiting and commenting. I appreciate it.

    If you have your own blog or site, this is a good opportunity to increase your own readers because you can link to your blog or site when you comment on mine.

    Here's the prize:




    Here's the list of what is in the picture with a few retail value prices added to show the rough estimated value.

    Beyond paradise mens deodorant stick 2.6 oz
    Tommy Girl Body wash 3.4 fl oz
    Clinique soaps 1.7 oz (retail value $15)
    Estee Lauder Perfectionist Correcting Serum 1.7 fl. oz (retail value $80)

    I am fairly new so please forgive my ignorance, but I never realized you had a blog set up at frugal notebook. It has so many wonderful topics, I could get lost there reading all day. I posted one comment already, but I can't wait to go back and read more of what you have there.

    Excellent. I am a bit of a blogger too, and I get very few comments and it kind of depresses me at times that I'm working so hard at my writing and no one is reading it.

    I've commented already.

    You have a wonderful blog, BTW.

    Talking Great idea

    Great idea to get your blog readership up. I've been so busy with everything else my blogging is way down. Maybe this will help encourage me to get back into it.
