Competitions!

I cannot believe it, I am in shock, and very happy!! Why? Because I have found an American blogger that will ship giveaways all over the world!! If you have UPS or USPS in your country then she will deliver!! Which makes such a change from all those giveaways that I see that say that you must have a U.S. or Canadian address in order to be eligible.

I do understand that shipping can be very expensive, particularly if you have very large or awkward items in your giveaway, but sometimes it feels that no-one else gets a chance!! Whine whine whine (shut up girl!!) I have to admit that not every blogger is like this, indeed, I have just won a set of notecards from Who Can Find a Wife of Valor and I am so very pleased about that, but that doesn't mean that I still can't have a whinge!!

Anyway, back to the point - My Wooden Spoon is hosting a series of giveaways for the next few weeks and I am going to ensure that I do my bit to win!! This week the giveaway contains muffin tins, tea towels, a voucher for a handi-vac and of course - a wooden spoon!!

Way cool to find an international contest!

Hope you are still planning to run the V5K. I just wanted to let you know that I put up a little questionnaire thingy for people running the Virtual 5K. It is meant to set you up to share some details about yourself and your running with the other V5K runners. If you have a chance pop by and check it out. I'll link to your response, just let me know you did it. Find it HERE

I sometimes wonder if the giveaways are real. I always enter- never win. No bitterness. :D

congrats on the notecards!
i haven't even thought about the whole international thing with giveaways. Hmm. I guess I wouldn't mind mailing overseas if it's not too large a package. something to think about!
