I'm extremely happy to be able to give my readers a chance to win Lynderella's Connect the Dots!
I know this one has been a hard one to get ahold of, and I'm hoping this will go to someone who has been admiring it. I had been lusting after it for a long time, but finally got my hands on Cover Band's Sticks N Stones version of it; when Connect the Dots finally arrived via the Llarowe wish list system, I decided I didn't really need both of them... What better opportunity could I have to share the love? Therefore, this unopened bottle of Lynnderella's Connect the Dots will go to one lucky reader.
These are the rules for entering the contest (don't worry- I'm not going to make you jump through hoops... well, not that many, anyways):
1) Be a public follower of my blog via GFC (this is simply the easiest way for me to keep track of readers who want to enter).
2) Leave a comment on this post and give me your GFC name, along with an email address at which I can reach you (if you'd rather not publicly leave your email, you can also email me at thelacquertracker@gmail.com to let me know what address I can use to contact you). If you should win, then I will email you and you will have 48 hours to accept your prize.
Information regarding extra entries:
Admittedly I'm a little sceptical when it comes to this extra entries business that a lot of blog contests incorporate... mostly it seems to entail following a blog via a bazillion different social media platforms (most of them which I don't even have) and blogging about the contest on your own blog (which until I started a blog of my own I always felt was a little bit unfair to non-bloggers). So, these are MY rules regarding extra entries:
1) Write me a haiku (the formula is 5 / 7 / 5, by the way!). It can be about anything: nail polish, your summer vacation plans, how you currently feel about your job, or pretty much whatever comes to mind! This makes tallying all the entries more enjoyable for me, therefore I'll award you an extra entry.
These final two ways to earn extra entries are actually already decided. They are:
2) If you were a follower previous to the announcement of this giveaway, you'll gain an extra entry. While I'm excited at the prospect of new followers who will hopefully enjoy my blog, I also want to reward the readers who have been with me since before I decided to do this contest.
3) If you're a regular or semi-regular commenter on my blog, you'll gain an extra entry. This will be at my discretion, and I won't confirm wether or not you got an extra entry, but if I've seen your name pop up here or there, you'll probably be getting one.
This contest is open internationally, and will end on June 21st, 2012, at 11:59 PM (CST). A winner will be announced the next day, sent an email, and be given 48 hours to respond.
Good luck!

I hope the haiku doesn't have to have a theme ;)
Thanks so much, Sandi! And I loved the haiku! Especially the last line, rofl!
DeleteI want Connect The Dots
ReplyDeleteso, so badly that it really hurts
I really hope to win
OK, have no idea if the 5/7/5 means number of words, I hope it does LOL
And you have my details :)
Hahaha, the haiku formula actually goes by syllables. But I thoroughly enjoyed your poem nonetheless! Don't worry, I'm not strict about haiku format. ;)
DeleteMy budget is not large enough for all the polishes you post! Maybe buying will-power would be cheaper...

You got it! Thanks for entering. Good luck! :)
DeleteThanks - I just realised I wasn't a follower! D'oh. I am now. I never actually use GFC - I have all my favourite blogs in a bookmark file in my toolbar. I'm old school like that!
DeleteHuh, I actually have you down as a follower! For a little while now. Maybe you weren't logged in?
DeleteI actually do the same thing as you- I keep track of all my favourites through bookmarks! It just seems easier.
I know, I thought I'd started following a couple of months ago. But when I clicked through just now it didn't seem to have me listed - maybe it's the infamous blogger followers bug! Sorry about that in any case. ;)
DeleteHi. Please enter me. I'm already a follower, and I believe I followed as GirlieBloggerSeattle.

Deleteomg Connect the Dots! I can't afford Lynnderella's nor do I want to deal with the drama, even if she makes pretty polishes, so this is awesome :)

That's the best I have xD
Yeah, I hear you on the Lynnderella drama... I got my Lynn polishes through the Llarowe waiting list, which took awhile, but worked out in the end.
DeleteThanks for entering, Moobelle- and thank you for sharing a haiku! It was fun to read.
Great giveaway, thanks! I have been thinking about CTD, Lynnderella is so hard to get a hold of.
