Smelling More than a Giveaway


I'm smelling a contest...I'm smelling coffee!

If there's one thing I've benefitted from by starting this little Tightwad Momma website, it's meeting so many new great friends & people who care enough to take the time to share free deals with me... to share with you....
and all the swell people who have emailed to say hi, or who have added me as a friend on facebook...
or the sweet emails of those who have taken the time to thank me.

I wish I could take you all out for coffee.
But I can't (then I wouldn't be a tightwad).

But I can treat one of you to coffee.  To Starbucks, to be exact.

That's right, (drumroll),
Contest begins right now.

A winner (selected via Random.org) will be the lucky new owner of a $10 Starbucks giftcard (you will receive this weekend from USPS).
Why? (besides because I love you all)
Because I earned it on swagbucks but, well, not really trying hard at all, just using it as my main search engine.  Really.  That's it.

Contest ends Wednesday.
And you know the drill...
Entries earned by
  1. just leaving a comment (that's it, no beauty tip, no guilty pleasure, just a comment)
  2. blog about it (then leave a comment that you blogged about it, w/ an url to your blog)
  3. become my facebook friend & then facebook about it (")
  4. follow me on twitter & tweet about it
  5. put my button on your sidebar
  6. email 3 friends about this (CC me into your email, tightwadmommaATgmailDOTcom)
  7. sign up with SWAGBUCKS (follow the link on my sidebar)
(you must comment after each of these, those comments are in turn, ENTRIES)

GOOD LUCK & Happy Coffee!

    Yay for swagbucks! They almost seem too good to be true but I keep hearing how people trade them for all kinds of stuff. The gift cards have to be the best trade for them.
