I've always thought it would be awesome to do an 'unwanted gift exchange party'. Everyone could bring one or two of those gifts that they received with great intentions, but couldn't use for whatever reason, and then do a big swap with others in the same situation. But how do you pull that off with potentially offending the giver?
Instead, I decided to do a little giveaway! Times are tight. I've been reading so many blogs talking about this, and I've lived some of my own penny pinching the last couple of years. So maybe someone is wishing they had a little extra to stuff a stocking, give a coworker or a friend a gift, or a little something for themselves. Well this is for you. It's kind of a little way to Pay It Forward.
#1 - Pamper Pack
1 - beaded pink and tan necklace
1 - silver frame holiday ornament
1 - Burt's Bees Deep Pore Scrub
1 - sweet little candle holder with a wire & bead lady bug on top
(sorry the picture doesn't show it well! It's quite cute!)
#2 - Coffee and Warmth
1 - Terra ceramic reusable travel cup
1 - $5 Starbucks gift card
1 - magnetic list pad
1 - black ear warmers from Land's End

I'd like to enter #2, I left my travel mug somewhere and for the life of me I can't remember where!
Wow that is super nice of you Ally! I'd like to jump in right away and put my comment in for prize #2. I am not the best at following directions, but if I understand correctly, I am to tweet the line you provided up above as well. So here goes. I'll be tweeting now.
And thanks for being so thoughtful and providing this giveaway. That is very nice of you....whether I win or not, you Rock.
But you really really Rock if I win. LOL
Aww that is so sweet. Ohhh ummm I say 1.. I love that little candle holder.. did I mention I am a candle freak.. Merry Christmas to you hun
Ok, not so easy peasy with the RT, but I will try my hardest. I think stalk, I mean follow, you on every platform available. I am digging on #2, as you had me at magnetic list. Awesome and generous idea!
Cool beans Ally! This must be my favourite giveaway ever :) may I please enter for number 2 because I always wanted those ear warmers but never remember to buy them...

This is a toughie! Let's go w/ No. 2. My extreme need of earwarmers was the deciding factor. Thanks Ally!! What a great idea :)
