I tell you, these giveaways are really putting me in the Christmas mood: I have bottled the Santa’s Helper I made after seeing it on the Thrifty Christmas website. It’s so delicious, I just don’t know if it will last until December 25th, but I’m hoping to enjoy a glass or two whilst decking the halls next week.
Today’s giveaway is from findmeagift.com who have some truly original gift ideas for presents, at Christmas and all the year round. I was delighted when they offered me a birdhouse to giveaway. I know that probably sounds underwhelming, but just take a look at the Sylvester Bird Nesting Box and tell me you don’t want it for your big bad self. I know I do: I can picture catching a glimpse of it when I look out of the kitchen window. It’ll make me giggle every day.
No, wait, I’m getting carried away now. Because it’s not mine, it’s yours. That is, if you remember to ‘like’ the FindMeAGift Facebook Page. Even if you don’t win the Birdbox, you could still win an iPhone 4S so it’s totally worth doing, right? Just leave a comment to let me know that you’ve done so*. You could like the Domestic Goddesque Facebook page too if your were filled with the Christmas spirit.
This competition has now closed. Congratulations to @marisworld.
