{ Clarisonic Mia Giveaway (and for an amazing cause too) }


The other day I was updating my blog and noticed that I somehow manage to surpass 100 posts. This is probably not a huge milestone for most, but since it took me about 15 years to get here because apparently I'm one of those bloggers who lack dedication, never update and quit blogging every six months, this is kind of a big deal.

To celebrate my 100-some entries, and as a way of saying a HUGE THANKS to you, my lovely readers, I'm giving away a Pink Clarisonic Mia!  This is not a sponsored giveaway, this is just a way for me to say thanks to you guys for being so fuckin' awesome. Thank you for reading, for leaving comments and for sticking around through my numerous hiatuses - I appreciate each and every one of you!


To enter the giveaway:
1. Follow me via Google Friend Connect and leave me a comment telling me that you did. Be sure to mention your GFC user name so I can find you later. THAT'S IT!

For additional entries:
1. Follow me on Twitter and tweet the following -- "I just entered @lempelziv's Clarisonic giveaway and you can too: http://bit.ly/s0iMus " (2 entries)
2. Blog about the giveaway and leave me a comment with a link (3 entries)

FOR A QUADJILLION (or, something more reasonable, like 10) EXTRA ENTRIES AND UNLIMITED KARMA POINTS:
Another reason why I'm doing this giveaway is to help out my friend Steven who will be doing the Susan G. Komen 3-day 60 mile walk for Breast Cancer for the 5th year in a row. His goal is to raise $2300 for the foundation and he's currently at a half-way point of meeting his goal.

While I don't have any personal experience with breast cancer, I've known people who are affected by this terrible disease - wives of several of my colleagues, a co-worker who was diagnosed in her late 20s, relatives, friends, the list goes on.... My heart breaks for those who are fighting this deadly disease every day and for those who, sadly, lost their loved ones to it.

Please visit Steven's personal page and read about his previous experience with the walk and the reasons why he's walking again this year. The write-up is long, but it's beautifully written and is well worth the read, I promise.

For each donation, you'll receive 10 additional entries for the giveaway. I really hope your consider donating - no amount is too small and it's obviously for an amazing cause. THANK YOU!

Giveaway will close on November 30th.

Chuck said...

Congrats on 100+ posts!

Following you on GFC now. I'll (most likely) donate later...will let you know when that happens. :)

Ha, yeah, I'm that kind of blogger you describe. But I also deleted my old blog, thinking that would give me motivation to start fresh. Failed logic much?
Tell you what I do well though...waste epic amounts of time on pinterest. I "kung fu/ninja" style pin the shit out of the internet on a weekly basis.

Go you, again. :)

Just wanted to let you know I donated. It's not that much though, so please no extra entries for it. I'd feel wrong. Just figured since it is thanks to you I donated, you might like to know.

I loved reading Steven's story. My mom was diagnosed with breast cancer when I was 12, so his story really resonated with me. Even though he has already reached his goal (yay!) I went ahead and donated too.
