Follower Love Giveaway Hop - 2 Winners!

Prizes from CSN Stores AND The Book Depository await TWO lucky winners...

Today marks the start of the Follower Love Giveaway Hop hosted by the lovely Kathy at I Am a Reader, Not a Writer.  From today until February 13th, over 200 blogs will be hosting a bookish type of giveaway.  By clicking HERE or on the pretty pink button above, you can go to the list of all the participants. 

But FIRST, check out MY giveaway - just to thank the lovely readers who follow One Book Shy.  I was absolutely thrilled when I reached that 500 Follower milestone!  I never would have thought it possible.  I am very thankful for each and every one of you so I thought I'd share a bit of the love with TWO winners receiving prizes from two of my favorite online stores:

One lucky INTERNATIONAL follower will receive a credit for up to $10.00 USD from

One other lucky US or Canada follower will receive a $65.00 gift code to

Entry into the drawing for either is simple:  You MUST be a FOLLOWER to enter - this is a Follower Love hop after all.  Since my International friends get left out of a lot of these drawings, the giveaway for the $10.00 credit is only open to those who live outside of the US and Canada in countries that The Book Depository ships to.  The CSN Stores gift code drawing is open to US and Canada residents only.

There are extra entries available for also being an email subscriber and for blogging about this contest.  Be sure to check the boxes on the entry form.  Please note that commenting on this post would be fabulous, but doesn't enter you in the drawing - only the entry form will do that.

Good luck to everyone :)

Go to the List of Participating Blogs to continue on your merry way and have fun hopping!
(I am #54 on the list if that helps you find your place :)

CSN Stores and Our Future

I don't always get really personal on this blog, but I'm pretty excited about the adventure we are about to embark upon.  I'm sure it is going to carry over to my reading time and content!  I can give you a few hints:  we'll be shopping for backyard swing sets in the very near future and our lives will become a lot fuller..

 

 

No, I'm not pregnant BUT hubby and I are working on adding to our family through adoption.  We are in the beginning stages with mounds of paperwork and getting the house more child-friendly.  So of course I have been checking out all of the goodies that I can find at my favorite online one-stop shopping destination: CSN Stores.  I have pretty much found most everything I have been looking for so far.  I love this site!  Which is why I became part of their Preferred Blogger program. 

 

***Be sure to check back next week when one of YOU will benefit from my association with this great company.  GIVEAWAY ALERT!!!!

Blogtoberfest Giveaways Sneak Peek - CSN Stores

I mentioned the other day that I'd be having more than one giveaway during Blogtoberfest.  Well, I'm excited to announce that one of the upcoming drawings will be for a $65.00 gift code for CSN Stores!  Pretty cool prize, huh?

So, what kind of present do you think you might get yourself (or me, of course) with your gift code?  My ever-growing drool list includes some new end tables like these:

or my favorite:

I'll announce the start of the giveaway in a few days, but for now I would suggest you go to CSN Stores and start compiling a wish list of your own.  They have over 200 stores in which you will definitely find your own must-haves.  Free shipping is available on the majority of their products so you won't want to miss out on some great deals.

CSN Stores ~ Keeping Time and Coddling a Porkchop

I mentioned a few weeks ago that I had been contacted by CSN Stores to do a review on something from one of their over 200 online stores. I have really been thrilled with this company and the great products they carry.  One of the items I chose for review is this gorgeous wall clock:

 Maples Clock in Copper

I had really been searching for something that would blend in with the decor in our bedroom as it has a lot of antiqued copper frames and such.  Their selection was huge and I finally narrowed it down to this little beauty which fits perfectly.  I'm very pleased!

The other item I reviewed isn't for me, but for my cat Porkchop.  He's my 3-legged, almost blind, allergic to everything, trauma kitty.  My baby, in other words.  Our bed is too high for him to safely jump on and off it.  I worry about his little single hind leg taking all of his ahem "bulk" when he jumps. 

This is another item that I have been researching quite a bit.  I wanted something soft, yet sturdy for my "little" porker.  So I jumped at the chance when I came across this great set of pet stairs:

 Lambs Wool Pet Stairs

The removable and washable cover were my final selling point.  Now my little beastie can safely pounce off and on the bed and I don't worry about it ~ as much!

Mama's Little Porkchop

**Thank you to Jamie and CSN Stores for the chance to review these great products.  I received a gift certificate from CSN Stores to choose and purchase items for a review.  I was under no obligation to provide a positive review.  All words and opinions are 100% my own.

$50 CSN Stores Gift Certificate Giveaway - MoonCat Farms

As I'm sure you've gathered, I'm a big fan of CSN Stores.  In fact I will be doing a review here, on One Book Shy in the next week or so.  For now though, if you'd like to get an easy chance at a $50 Gift Certificate/Code from them you can check out the GIVEAWAY over at MoonCat Farms Meanderings...

Good luck!

One Cup of Coffee, Coming Up

I was recently contacted by CSN Stores to do a review on this blog.  It was funny when the email popped up because I happened to have a window open to their site.  I was shopping for a coffee maker for my best friend.

CSN Stores is an amazing site.  They have over 200 shops in their online family so you can find just about anything under the sun - most with free shipping.  That was only one of the reasons I was already on their site when the email message popped up.  They have great prices too.

My best friend is all about the color red!  The first car she bought,  a majority of her clothes, her office, and most importantly, her kitchen.  Whenever I shop for her, I try to find red gadgets for her.  While on CSN's website, I found these goodies:

Red Coffee Maker

Red Apple Peeler

But you know it's hard to shop for others sometimes.  Especially when you want what you're getting them for yourself.  My own color is purple.  So I'm thinking that for my birthday (in a few days..hint hint hint), I shall have to coerce someone to get me this:  Husband, are you reading this???

Amethyst Coffee Press

I'll be continuing my new CSN love affair when I conduct a review in the next couple of weeks.  In the meantime, be sure to spend some time at CSN Stores finding me something in PURPLE!

Curious minds want to know:  RED or PURPLE????

Have a Great Week and Happy Reading
