The Comp List: Comp List 5/01-5/07 (And you know what to do...vote!)

Hello, everyone! (vote)

I hope you have all been doing well this week. (vote) There are some good deals for this week, so get excited! (and vote)

I did want to mention something real quick- You will notice there are some ads listed on the last several(!) pages of the comp list. Please, oh please, take the time to look over these! (then vote) These people/businesses have been kind enough to pay for a spot on the ad pages which gives me just a little bit of income for doing the list. I most definitely appreciate people purchasing these ads so please look at them! You might find something you need! (vote)

Ok, I am done sending you subliminal voting messages. Here is the scoop just in case you have no idea why I am pestering you to vote for me... *All You Magazine's is having an"America's Smartest Shopper" contest. This contest is going on until May 24th at 11:59 pm. I am one of 8 finalists and I REALLY want to win! If I win, I get $1,000 dollars and get to be in the magazine. So here is how YOU can help ME:

Step 1. Go here: http://www.allyou.com/smartshopping/smartest-shopper-detail-3-00411000077841/

Step 2. Click "Vote" below the super embarrassing video that I made...

Step 3. Enter in your email address on the page that opens. Make sure my name is selected, un-check the box under the Newsletter part if you don't want daily messages from them. Then select "No thanks, I don't want to subscribe...." unless you DO want to, then by all means, subscribe away. Enter in the stupid "CAPTCHA" words that you can never read then SUBMIT!! (You will get a confirmation email later on, just click on the link in it to confirm your vote. If you don't, your vote won't count!! You should only have to do this once, I think.)

Step 4. Do the Macarena since you just helped me out! (I know you know how to do it. Don't kid yourself.)

Step 5. Repeat tomorrow. And the next day. And the day after that. Don't stop that until May 24th! I need your help- the lady in second keeps creeping up on me! EEk!

Moving on... Last week, I had 3 giveaways. Here are the results: Karen Wittry was the winner of the Scentsy giveaway, Angie Goodwin won the handmade scarf and Courtney Croucher won the It Works! Wrap! Congrats to all of you! There are 3 giveaways again this week. The drawings will happen on Tuesday, May 7th at 7:00pm (or 8 or 9... depending on when I can find time) so I will not accept any entries after that time! Here are the rules for the contest:

Each week, I will post one or two ads in the regular ad section (at the end of the comp list). These special ads will have a little sign on them that says "Email "(a code word)" to emy330@yahoo.com to enter". The code word is located on the ad. Just email that key word to me (put it in the subject line) and you will be entered! The item in the giveaway will be something from the business that the ad is for but you have to enter to find out what it is! There are some GREAT items! If there is more than one giveaway you want to enter for that week, you MUST send me separate emails for the different items. Please only enter one time for each drawing. I will try to respond to each entry so you know I got it! I think I will also post some of the special ads on my blog randomly throughout the month so check there to see if there are any current giveaways on there! These may or may not be "flash" giveaways that only last a day or two so keep checking. Winners will be announced in the comp list on Wednesdays!

One more thing, someone posted a great deal for Diapers on Facebook. I do have to admit, I usually am a slacker when it comes to looking at the Toys 'R Us flyers but this deal was found there. So, I will try to look through that each week, also! (And thanks to Kortni McGill for sharing that deal with everyone!)

Happy shopping!
