Ok, you aren't really going to get a car. I just thought that now that Oprah's show* is over, someone needed to fill the void of giving things away! So while it's true I can't give you a car, you COULD get a necklace, or a new bag, or a hammock and any number of other prizes!
The winner of this giveaway gets a $37.50 gift card (virtual) to use at the online store Novica, in association with National Geographic! Novica sells goods from all over the world so if you are interested in goods from a certain region, you can search the website by region! It's very cool. I ordered a necklace from Thailand and got notification that it was shipped from Thailand the next day. If that package isn't covered in multi-colored stamps when it arrives, I am going to be very disappointed.
I know what you guys are thinking (well, some of you, anyway), "But I won't know what to do if I win!! I'm overwhelmed! I'm never going to use the gift card!!! I'm just not going to enter!" Ok, maybe that's just what I thought when I was first invited to use a giftcard of my very own with Novica. I should have more faith in you all to get less overwhelmed than me. But in case you feel like I did, here are the steps you follow when you find out you won:
1. Cheer a lot! Then maybe praise my name - just a little. Then email me and I'll send you your gift card number.
2. Go to the Novica website and choose what you want to buy.
3. Go to "checkout" and when they ask you for how you want to pay, type in the number that I have sent you and you will get notification that your item was sent!
4. Eagerly check your mailbox/doorstep every day until your package arrives.So easy!
OK, HERE'S HOW YOU WIN!! First, if you are not already a follower of this blog, become one! (It's easy.) Then, since Novica sells products from all over the world, tell me what are the TOP THREE countries you want to visit!
I think mine would be something like:
*England/Scotland (I am cheating by combining them because they're so close to each other)
*Australia, and....hmm...I can't decide...
*Somewhere in South America. Chile maybe? What about you?
You have until Friday, June 10th to enter! Winner will be chosen at random.
Now enter to win the giveaway and then check out Novica's website! Here are some ideas for things you could purchase with your giftcard. I did all the work for you. :) You don't have to order one of these - they're just ideas of things I thought you'd like!
1. Finger Puppets - trick your kids into thinking your finger's a giraffe! Kids love being tricked!
2. Pearl Cluster ring, which is beautiful and which in retrospect, I wish I had ordered!
3. Cozy Parachute hammock - I want one of these right now! (Also available in blue)
4. Cotton Handbag - OooooOOOo, I wish I had ordered this too!
5. Mens Leather Wristband bracelet - I'm a fan.
6. Glass pitcher - perfect for the summer months ahead!*Interesting fact: I've never seen an episode of Oprah.
Good luck everyone!

1. UK (see how I was tricky there?)
2. Italy
3. France
Also, your comment on the finger puppets made me think of a Deep Thought...I can't remember it exactly, but it's the one where the guy is going to take his kid to Disney World, but then takes him to an abandoned lot or something and tells him Disney World burned down. HA! And sad. ;)
I'm in too! I love giftcards. And I love traveling. It's really hard to think of anywhere I DON'T want to go (seriously... even places I shouldn't, I still want to go to there), so here are my toppish threeish in no particular order...

3. Costa Rica
So. There you go.

My parents drove the family across the Canadian border for five minutes when I was living in Michigan. That lone trip is the ENTIRETY of my international travels. (Did I say that right? Probably not.)
1. Greece. Someplace on the side of a cliff, sprinkled with white buildings looking down on turquoise water.
2. Paris. Purely a food tour thing.
3. Rome. Again, a food thing. They're all food things. It's all about food.
1. UK. Andy proposed to me there.
2. Italy. Great food, people, language.
3. Germany. Beautiful. Genealogy.
1. Ireland (yes I've already been there, but it's my favorite country, I want to live there)
2. Egypt
3. France
