My goodness. I had no idea that family game night would be the give away that would get you all excited. With 194 entries. Second only to the Twilight week that ended with 195 entries.
We seem to be having non-stop family game nights here. Game days. Game mornings. Because we got a wii for Christmas. We have been playing wii sports. Lots of tennis. Bowling. And I had no idea that I have mad boxing skills. We also have become addicted to Mario Cart. All thanks to Heather from Mindless Junque. So addicted that I HAD to buy a second wii remote. And so much that we are considering two more remotes. So that we can all play. And Michael and I keep playing after the girls go to bed. Is there a 12 step program for the wii?
But for you guys. The big winner of the semi-unplugged family night. That includes the two movies. The read aloud book. Blokus. Snacks. And some hot chocolate. That lucky family belongs to Jori-o. Maybe you all can console yourselves by seeing if she'll invite you over. (Email me your address so that I can get all your goodies out to you!)
Over the past nine weeks there have been some amazing give aways. And I love all the new faces that I see here. But. Today is the last week of our weekend winners. And for our final give away...I thought we might revisit the past. And give again some of the greatest hits.
Week one was all about Wicked. With JenniferSusan as our winner. Let's add the Wicked soundtrack to the goodie basket. (Oh, and one of my favorite Christmas presents was I got Pop-u-lar as the ringtone on my phone!)
Week two was in the pink. Jen won. And got a bonus goodie from Amazon in her box. For the week 10 winner, I have a Save the Ta-tas magnet for your car. And some pink spatulas for your kitchen.
Week three was all about Twilight. With the most entries - by one. And Sassy Stephanie won on her birthday. And you can now have the Twilight Barnes and Noble gift card. So that you can read Twilight. Or whatever book you might want to read. Or buy a half off calendar. Or even some godiva chocolate.
Week four brought us the favicon and Mommy cards from Darcy. Michelle from Tales From the Lunchroom was the lucky winner. Who decided she did not need mommy cards - and she got a button instead.
Week seven was all about Disney. And scrapbooks. I gave away a huge Disney prize pack to Darcy. And two mini packs. Those supplies came right from my shelf. Because I used to be a Creative Memories Consultant. This week's prize is an assortment of supplies. An album. Some paper. Some hostess only goodies. I am not sure what will go in the box. But it will be at least $100 worth. And it will not be any of the items pictured above. Because they are all gone now.
Week eight was to have a night out. With the prize being dinner and a movie. Debbie from Finding Normal is looking forward to her night out on the town. And now you can go to dinner with your honey. Or your family. Or your best friend. Or maybe you just "vant" to be alone.Whatever you choose - you can eat at a Darden restaurant - Red Lobster, Olive Garden, Longhorn, or Bahama Breeze.
And the surprise favorite week. Was week nine. With it's game, movies, book, and snacks. That have found a home with Jori-o. And now one of you will be the proud owner of the game Blokus. And can add it to your family night repertoire.
To summarize - week 10 Weekend winner will receive: The Wicked soundtrack, a save the ta-tas car magnet, a set of two pink scraper/spatulas, Barnes and Noble giftcard, Office Depot gift card, some warm delights, LOST season 1 on dvd, at least $100 worth of scrapbook supplies, restaurant gift card, and the game Blokus.
Worth playing for? Here is what you need to do:
1. Post a comment here. If you could pick a week that you would have won, which would you choose? Have you ever won a prize from a blog or somewhere else? What have you won?
2. For another entry...follow me. If you already follow me, you also get an extra entry. Be sure to come back and leave a separate comment saying that you are a follower!
3. Blog about this week's contest.
4. When you comment you get an entry. When you follow, come back and leave another comment saying you follow me. If you are already a follower, post another comment saying that you are already a stalker follower. When you post about it...come back and leave a third comment saying you did it. Then I can truly use random number generator and I won't have to type in all those names!
5. Contest ends Friday (Jan 9th) at midnight. Winners have one week to email me to claim prizes. All unclaimed prizes will be added back into the pot. Winner will be announced next Saturday.
Theme song: Popular from the "Wicked" soundtrack. Because that is the song that launched our Weekend Winners.

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 360 of 360I would of liked to win week three, the B&N gift card! I have won some really delicious gourmet olives and a book on how to write a cookbook!
Twilight & Wicked were my favorite weeks. I really don't think I could pick between those two :)
I've won bloggy contests in the past. I enter tons though, so that increases my odds.
I'm following
Oh I would love the scrapbooking supplies! Wish I'd known about you that week! Just came over from Adventures of The Reluctant Housewife!
I've won some giveaways in the past but my favorite was a $50 Target gift card! : ) (I spent it all on myself!)
P.S. I am following you now! Thanks for the chance!
Hello!! Wow, that's one hell of a giveaway! If I could've won any of the weeks, it would've been the week with the B&N giftcard... I love that damn store.
P.S. I follow you! :)
I would have loved to win week 9 with the movies and games! We got rid of cable and that has led to some fun movie and game nights around here! To answer you other question, the most recent thing I won on a blog was a few stamps...I don't know which ones yet because they are still on the way! I love blog contests! I do them sometimes on my blog, too!
jinglesells@gmail.com
I just found out about your give-aways, please enter me.
I'm here from SITS.
If I could have won another week it would be week 6 because I've never seen LOST.
Wow! Look at the all the followers. Me included.
I have indeed won from a blog before. I was really really hoping to win the date night blog contest. Maybe, just maybe I have yet another chance??? :-)
If I had won a week I would have loved to have won Week 8. I could so use a movie and dinner out.
I have won a couple of blog contests lately. I've won a photo, a homemade soap and a rock paperweight.
I would have liked week 8, dinner and a movie. I get far too few nights out with hubby, so this would have been lots of fun. I do giveaways on my blog from time to time, and have entered & won some VERY nice things from other bloggers in the past as well as a few sweepstakes as well so I consider myself very fortunate.

I am now following your blog!
micaela6955 at msn dot com
i would have entered all of those weeks if i knew about it! please enter me for this giveaway! thanks. :)
Definitely worth playing for!! I'd say either Wicked week or Save the Tatas week, I would have wanted the main prize...but, really, they're all good.
The only thing I've ever won was on your blog, I won a save the tatas car magnet. Very cool!!
I already follow you!! :)
And, I have a permanent post on my blog about your contests!!
Thanks again for doing all of this!! It's GREAT!!
I would have loved the B&N gift card... seeing that I am a librarian.
I have won a giveaway before. I won a hair bow holder and a hairbow.... did I mention I only have boys?
I would love to win anything, anything at all. I would probably like the scrapbooking supplies most. Or the dinner out card cause I'm tired of cooking. Hmmm or.....
Pick me pick me!
I do follow you!
I'm linking to you now when I post this giveaway on my blog!
I hope I win!
I have blogged about your giveaway!

I would have wanted to win week 9 since I love that game, but don't own it yet.
I now follow you!
Holy cow, what an awesome giveaway! Pick me, pick me!
Comment #2 - I am already a follower!
I posted about it on my blog! http://www.snotw.com/2009/01/weekend-winner-giveaway.html
If I could have won, I probably would have chosen the scapbook stuff. That way I could finally do what I keep saying I would and not have any excuse.
I'm also a follower.
I would pick week 1. I've heard so much about Wicked but haven't seen it or heard the music yet!
I've won two blog contests. I won a AIO cloth diaper for my son (still washing that one to prep it and can't wait to try it out!). I also won a $25 Build-A-Bear gift card which my 4 year old daughter thoroughly enjoyed spending.
Follower. :)
If I were to pick a week that i would've liked to win...all of them are great giveaways...but would choose the blokus game or the scrapbooking week.
I won earrings from a blog last month and they're great :)
I just subscribed to follow :)
My favorite week would be week 8 because with a new baby and 3 other children my hubby and I rarely get out. Combining 4 kids with me now staying at home we spend most of our meals at home altogether. I would like to surprise my hubby with a date out that doesn't cut into our budget:)This is my first blog contest I have entered ever!! I am way behind!!
I became a follower of your blog!
I just finished a blog about the contest with a link to your blog.I am excited my first contest!!
Just found you on SITS and glad I did! If I could have won, it would have been the B&N card. We go there once a week to pick out new books for the kids (and me!).
Precious kids there.It looks as though yall had an awesome Christmas.I have blogged about your giveaway today....ann
Awesome prizes! I would have loved to win the prize pack with Princess Bride and Goonies because they're two of my favorite movies!
I'm also a new follower!
Crossing my fingers for the random number gods to smile on me. :)
Wow!! This is a super delux goodie bag! Something in for the whole family.
I think if I could have won any week it would have been week 7. I always want to start scrapbooking, but never feel like I can buy the supplies for myself. So that would be really fun.
I have won a couple things from entering on blogs. The last thing I won based on skill was eleven political books for a contest in debate - that was super cool :)))
I follow you too :)
Do you have 245 comments?
I remember when it was just us and a few of our closest friends and life was easy and...and...and...
I blogged it as well :))

How is a girl suppose to choose between all those goodies? I think I'm most interested in the game or gift cards b/c I often 'vant' to be alone and can't be. Thanks for the chance.

Of course THIS will be the most popular week. haha I'd love to enter though, these are all amazing prizes and lot of it I can share with people in my family!!
If I could have won one of the weeks...Hmmm...I'm not sure honestly, but I have one contests on other blogs. It's usually just a book or something. Nothing too ginormous, such as this! lol

I am now following as well!!

Good heavens! Look at these comments! Before you know it, you'll be PW. I just posted about your contest, so I'm back to enter myself for the third and final time.
Oooh! I would've loved to win the week of the Wicked soundtrack, because I have a teenage daughter who LOVES. this. soundtrack. ♥
And, no...I have never won *anything* -- and never a giveaway. (hangs head, with a sniffle or two) And....I could really use brownie points with a teenager... (more sniffles) Pick me! Pick me!
Hey, wait a minute. A random generator won't care about any of that stuff. Rats.
(LOL) ;-)
I would love week 8 b/c we never eat out. But really, they all look amazing. wish I'd have known about your great giveaways earlier....
Wicked soundtrack! Haven't seen the show, but I love musicals. I have won a diaper backpack before.
I'm a stalker!
I sure would have loved to have won the week eight for the night out gift card. It has been so long since I was taken out to eat. I have won a prize from the Deal Seeking Mom blog it was a pillsbury basket.

Holy bananas! I would love to win all that good stuff! Especially Wicked! I am going to see the performance this Spring!!! (Bday present from the hubby. yay for him). Once I won some way cute hair clips from one of my fav hair blogs. I love winning stuff!!
I am now a follower! Also, I forgot to tell you that I would have had a difficult time choosing from the week of Wicked and the week of family games. Both are amazing. Sweet!
Goodness, so much! I'd love all the scrapbook supply, but then again, to go out and eat would be heavenly.
I follow you now!
I blogged too:

PICK A WEEK???? HUH? How?
They are ALL super-dee-duper!
My girls would love the Wicked cd....we hope to see it this year.
I would love the restaurant giftcard.....or the bookstore card.
Love it all.
Hi!
I would have loved to have won in week one - the Wicked Soundtrack.
Yes I have won a blog giveaway. A Toot and Puddle book from brimfulcuriosities.
Thanks for the giveaway!

This is like the mother of all giveaways! I would have loved to win the LOST dvd's because frankly, I only got a few episodes into season #1 before I got too confused. And without Tivo, and without my 5 kids running around, it was too hard to understand. I *REALLY* want to give it another try!!
Also, you asked if we've ever won anything. I have won several books, and a snazzy diaper bag, and just this past weekend I won a fabulous flip camera (to help me vlog my progress towards my fitness goals!). I hope my giveaway mojo hasn't all been spent! :)
stacey(dot)treerootandtwig(at)gmail(dot)com
I would have loved the Barnes and Noble giftcard! Everything is awesome though.
I follow you!
What an awesome giveaway!! I would pick week nine, my family would love the game and movies! I have won a few books from blog giveaways so far.
I just found your site so I am now a follower!
I posted about this giveaway on my sidebar under "Other Blog Giveaways".
I would have wanted to win week 3. You can never go wrong with a new book.
I am a new follower of your blog though Google Reader.
Awesome giveaway! It all looks great.
And I'm already a stalker :)
I'm a blog follower... all of your gifts would be fun to get.
Some wonderful prizes/gifts for week 10.
Have I ever won anything - yes I was so surprised when I won the 3 "happy feet" penguins from yaya chique....the journey ahead, during the holidays. They are just so darned cute. They're sitting on my media center - by my TV.
Oh and if I could have one any of the previous prizes - definitely would have been the B&N gift card. Since I spend a fortune at the book stores. My daughter (with dyslexia) became an avid reader of the "Japanese comics" - which are really novelettes. But geez louise they add up.
I'm a new follower - love your wit.
And just to add even more traffic to your site (and increase my chance - or decrease as the case may be)I've added a link to your site on my blog.
http://katsdailyinspiration.blogspot.com/
Oh, I wish I would have won the family night one for sure! Or the B&N gift card, I'm such a book-addict...
How fun!
Okay, I'm hooked, and I am a follower, and I'm posting about it on my blog in 5 minutes (gotta kiss the kidlins goodbye on their first day back to school). Happy Tuesday!
Wowzer! That's a lot of prizes! Ok, let's see...I've won a mustache on a stick from Anna Lefler and a box of chocolates from Preston. If I could pick any week to have won here it would have been the barnes and noble gift card. I love going to that store and rarely want to spend money on myself to buy a book.
I follow you too.
1. If I could win any week's worth of stuff I think I would go with the family game night b/c it is one of our family's 2009 goals (to spend more time together playing games). But the other weeks sound fun too.
You've got another follo-aw. :D
mwvdg.blogspot.com
4. Oops--now I tell you I am a follow-ah. :) Guess you get it twice.
Oh, and I forgot to say, I have entered loads of giveaways, but never won any.
I would love to win either the date night or the scrapbooking stuff. I like to scrapbook, but I need some motivation...like new scrapbooking supplies. I like the date night too because I don't get to see my husband too much and we NEED a date! And no I have never won anything from a blog...I'm not a very lucky person. The last thing I remember winning was a bag of groceries when I was like 12. It was the best day of my life...
I am going right now to post about your awesome giveaway!
I guess if you really want a stalker...I mean follower...I can probably do that too!
Ok. #1
I think I would have loved the restaurant gift card the best, because I can't afford to eat out otherwise and it would be a nice change of pace for me and the kiddo.
And in my previous comment, I forgot to mention that I have won. Once. I won a free Memory Mixer book--that I still have to do! ACK.
Okay. #2 -- I already stalk/follow you.
And finally, #3 --
I have posted about the giveaway!!
http://blissfulblunders.blogspot.com/2009/01/girl-is-at-it-again.html
Thanks for the opportunity to enter another fantastic giveaway! You rock fo' sho'!!

I would have to say the one with the Barnes and Noble gift card. My husband and I love to read. We are planning on having a library in our house.
I have won before. Right here, it was your second prize winner for the week of the night out. It was the movie Love Actually. :D
I hope that doesn't cut my chances.... :(
I am a devote follower Sister!
Just blogged about it Sister-Friend!
Week six would have been fun because I gave my brother quite a few TV DVDs this Christmas and the Weeds ones were some of them (and hey, he loves Lost, too, so... ;))
though those are all pretty amazing :)
and I've won some books off blogs before (forgot to include that before)
What a great assortment of prizes, I'm a big Lost fan! tWarner419@aol.com
I'd have loved the Barnes and Noble card... we LOVE the bookstore!!!
:)

Well, since it is lucky for Jens, maybe I'll be a winner this time! I actually did win a Starbucks gift card in a giveaway...and today I won a book! So maybe the third time is the charm! Of all of them, I would want the book gift cards and the game the most...and to eat out for free. But it all looks good!
And I've been loving your blog and I'll be coming back even without contests.
I would have liked week eight. This one, sounds even better!
I have won a couple of books, a backpack and a personalized hair bow holder for my grand daughter in the past. : )

I'm a follower - Sherrylinn
What a great blog...have had so much fun reading your entries. I have added a link to my blog.
We love games so probably week 9 Blokus. Or the Olive Garden GC...it's a toss up.
I have won a few giveaways. I won a mommy/kid apron combo and a personalized baby blanket. Thanks for the chance!
I would want the restaurant gift card one. That's my splurge. And it's bad.
I just found your site from a friend and love it- I don't think I have EVER won anything- but if I could have chosen a week to win it would probably be the one with the blokus game- we played that at a friends house a month or so ago and had a blast!
What a fun site!
WOW! That is one generous giveaway! Today is my first day visiting your blog, I found you through visiting a variety of other sources (I'm sure you know how easy it is to get lost in the blogworld!) But had I entered your other contests, I would definitely have hoped to win the family game night contest. My four year old recently discovered the wonder of candyland, and we have since been having family game days/nights/lunches/brunches/and everything in between. And who doesn't love the Goonies!? I'll have to buy that movie for them, I bet they'd love it. I have never won anything from a blog contest, but here's to hoping! What an awesome variety of goodies!
I am also now following your blog and added you to my blog roll, along with writing a post all about your fabulous blog!
mamakrit.blogspot.com
Well, I was hoping to win week 9, the Blokus game + more. We can never have enough games here to play. I have won a bloggy prize - I won a LeapFrog Tag before Christmas for my daughter from Mom Most Traveled. The Tag is an interesting product, still trying to figure out exactly how that little pen can "read" a book. Technology is amazing.
Follower!
My "Full to the Brim" post with your contest is here: http://www.brimfulcuriosities.com/2009/01/full-to-brim-kids-book-giveaway-list.html
I would have loved to win week 6. We just got back from Disneyworld and I really need to do a scrapbook of our adventure.
rsgrandinetti@yahoo.com
Wish I had read your blog weeks ago. Week 9 is my favorite package. Thanks for the great giveaway!
I now follow your blog. Won't miss a thing, hooray!
Oooh - sign me up!
And I'm a stalker!
I would like to have won week 6 prizes. The DVD sets. I love spending a whole day immersing myself in a series by having a marathon.Peanut butter M&M's and a DVD are the perfect pair for me time.
traymona[at]aol.com
Wow! That's some haul!
My faves: Lost (because I keep hearing how great it is, and really want to watch from the beginning before I start watching TV)
and the Barnes & Noble. Same storey- I feel so out of the loop because I haven't read the Twilight books.
I've won lots of stuff. In 2007 I was all about the contests. This past year, not as much, but still won a couple cool things. I heart freebies and giving prizes, too.
You know I'm a stalker. :) I may not come over every day, but I'm always following, and forever catching up!
What a wonderful contest!!! I would have picked week 2 because I really really wanted to see Wicked when it was in the cities and couldn't. :(
I am a follower! :)
I have posted about you on my blog!!!
I entered a few days ago with my first entry, but I really want to win, so I signed up to follow you! LOL!
I would have wanted the restaurant gift card. That's one of my "indulgences," if you will. I love to eat out but hate spending the money on it.
Oh yeah, I already follow you!
I blogged about it too.
How fun! I am new to your blog today so I am not sure which contest I would have liked to win because I haven't entered any yet :-)
Count me in for this one, thanks!
Week 5 would have been great; what's
better that warm chocolate? I have
never won ANYTHING.

Count me in as a new stalker!
I pointed people here from my blog!
Yes, I love it so much that now I'm stalking ... er, following... you!
And because I know lots of people who love free stuff, I'm heading over to post about you on MY blog!
I would've loved to have won any of the weeks' prizes, but since I just now found your blog, I'll settle for this week's!
I've never won a blog giveaway before (or anyt giveaway, for that matter...) but I keep on trying! And since you've already had three winners by the way of Jen, why not make it a nice even four? ;)
If I could choose a week I'd like to have won it would be the third week, for the Barnes and Noble card. I love that bookstore and so does my daughter, we'd have such fun!
I already follow you!!
One more entry for me! Yay me! Blogged about your giveaway at
http://wisprnsoul.blogspot.com/2009/01/another-contest-yes.html
OK, if I could have won something it would have been the Barnes and Noble gift card...huge reader. I see you are reading Three Cups of Tea...one of my very favorites.
By the way, I am a follower of your blog!
I am going to post your contest to my blog!
This is my first time visiting your blog! What fun! I usually manage to get a B&N gift card from somebody at Christmas, but this year I didn't! So I would pick that week as my fave, followed closely by the chance to have dinner and a movie with my hubby. date nights are few and far between with our new baby!
I would have loved to win the Princess Bride/Goonies week. We watch a lot of movies and play tons of games around here.
Thank you for hosting this great giveaway!
I'm now a follower/stalker.
I am now a serious follower!!
I wish I had found this in time to enter for Twilight Week!
Yes, I have won a few things from Blog Contests--I love entering them and reading the blogs.

I would like to enter for this! I would've most liked to win the week with the season 1 DVD of Lost. Or the Barnes & Noble card. I've won some books on blog contests before, but nothing huge.
I posted about the contest on my blog: http://paradoxrevealed.blogspot.com/2008/12/official-contest-list.html
I would have chosen week 5 since I love anything chocolate!!! Those little cakes looked so delish!
