Spring Fling!

Ok, so I'm giving in...I said I wouldn't have time to do this with student teaching and working my regular job...but giveaways are so much fun!

So the SITSA's over at The SITS Girls are having a Spring Fling...lots and lots and lots of giveaways today...go check it out....and I'll even give you some of my winning mojo...

So in the 1,000+ posts I have done over the last few years I have never done a giveaway...I know shameful. So here it goes...

I am offering a $10 gift card to Starbucks along with a few surprise scrapbook goodies...these goodies may be something I have made or picked up at one of the many, many conventions I have gone to!

How do you win?

Leave me a comment telling me what type of drink you would get if you won...me? Venti, Peppermint Mocha, Extra Hot, No Whip!

My contest will end tomorrow...Tuesday, March 10th at 10pm Pacific Time, when I will then randomly draw a winner and announce who they are! Please make sure I can get ahold of you if you win...Good luck and have fun!

TuTu's Bliss said...

caramel mochiata and a toffee crunch bar!!! Hugs, jen

Kim said...

Ahh, Starbucks! I can't decide between two drinks...if it's cold out I want a vanilla latte (I know boring right?!) but if the sun ever starts shining here I will cry in ecstacy for a mocha granita!

Kristen said...

In a perfect woorld...Venti Caramel Machiatto on ice! But I will prob get a NF mocha. Unless you MAKE me get the machiatto.

Carebear said...

Great giveaway - congrats on your first! I'm more excited about the scrappin' goodies than the starbucks, but I'm not a coffee drinker! I do love me an occassional vanilla chai tea, or a caramel apple spice though! And I don't know how you can drink it extra hot. The regular version scalds my tongue even after letting it sit awhile!!

Annelie said...

Grande tripple ice latte. Always.

Happy Spring Fling!

Mamarazzi said...

I'd love a Starbucks card, my Starbucks was the first victim to the economy arround here! Happy Spring Fling SITSta!

Unknown said...

I would tell you my favorite drink then I would have to kill you....No just joking. I can't tell you because I can only get it when my daughter is with me because I don't know what it's called. Yep, I'm a dummy. It's a frozen thingy with a hint of coffee, whip cream and I don't know what else. Sorry

Queenie Jeannie said...

OK, I'll admit it.....I'm "Starbucks Stupid"!! Seriously, I am!!! I just stand there like the goofus I am and describe what I want, while everyone else is sighing, rolling their eyes and generally being impatient twits. So I like the cold mocha thingie that tastes divine but gives me an ice cream headache, with whipped cream and cinnamon on top. What's that thing called??? (I promise to write it down this time!)

Come on over to my blog too - pearl earring giveaway TODAY!!

Mimi said...

I don't know exactly what it's called but I adore their spiced apple cider, yum.

Looks like you & I have a lot in common, I'll be back!

Toni said...

I'm a regular coffee kinda gal - Komodo Dragon is one of the best coffee's I've ever had.
Thanks for the opportunity!

Tricia said...

Mmmmm, double tall latte with whipped cream. My favorite.

Claremont First Ward said...

I LOVE the idea of the surprise scrapbook goodies. I would get one of their fruit drinks.

Craftymoose Crafts said...

Iced Vanilla Chai would absolutely be my choice. Or anything with chocolate or mocha in the title--does that about cover the whole shop?

Barely Domestic Mama said...

Me? I would get the White Chocolate Mocha in a grande...and then pretend to be completely ignorant of the calories I am swallowing. :)

Happy Spring Fling!

April said...

Since I'm not a big coffee drinker, I'd be getting a Grande peppermint tea with a crumble cake and my step daughter would get a Grande hot chocolate with whipped cream and a cookie because you can't go to Starbucks without a friend (or family who doesn't have a choice because they are under 10 and are stuck in the car with you).

Unknown said...

I don't even know what I would get...I don't get there often since I have 2 kiddos stuck to my hip, but I want to go!

Unknown said...

My standing Starbucks order is a tall caramel apple spice, extra hot. Thanks!

Carma Sez said...

Iced coffee for sure!

nikkicrumpet said...

Janelle said...

I will get a Caramel Macchiato, thanks! :-) I might even share with the hubs... lol

jennifersusan said...

I am all about the Venti Mocha Frapuccino w/o whip (unless they have the chocolate whip and then I'm extra whip). Is it bad that I just have to walk in and they have it waiting for me without even ordering? heehee..it really messes with them when I change the size because then they end up giving me the venti anyway. ;p
Happy Spring Fling! Can't wait to see what sort of scrapbook goodies!

Michelle said...

Starbucks and scrapbook goodies.......who could ask for more?

I'd love a non fat mocha please and make it a venti because anything bigger and I get a stomach ache. :)

Brandy said...

I would get a Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate. And not feel guilty about it cause we all know that if you buy it with a gift card then the calories don't count, right?!?!

capperson said...

I am always trying new things..but I would love either a java chip frap or a vanilla bean whatever its called..haha..my sister usually orders that on for me and I cant think of what its called until i get into the store..lol..its vanilla bean something..i know that much..lol

MMM I love starbucks. I really need a coffee kick now..lol

Tiffany said...

Strawberries and Cream Frap.. yummy.

Unknown said...

Its a toss up between 2, depending on whether I am being "good" or not and also what kind of day I am having.
So either a tall skinny vanilla latte or a tall non-fat white chocolate mocha, no whip.
The latter is one that my friend got me hooked on. YUM!

Unknown said...

Java Chip frappe- double shot if it has been one of *those* days I seem to be having lately.

Tricia said...

I'll take a Venti Carmel Frap, extra carmel and depending on the day a shot of espresso. OMG, can you count the calories in that sucker!

Days of Whine & Noses said...

The type of drink I'd get depends on the day...sometimes I feel like a grande skinny cinnamon dolce latte and other times I feel like a venti non-fat extra caramel, caramel macchiato :)

TisforTonya said...

I've only hit Starbucks once... (don't shoot a girl!) but I really enjoyed some strawberry concoction - I'd have to get another of those I think... or that other thing my friend had looked good...

jaquelyn {mama thoughts} said...

Grande Caramel Macchiato, hot, please!

thesweetestpetunia@gmail.com

Reeni said...

I love your giveaway! I would get a Venti Chai Latte.

Amy said...

I would get a grande iced carmel sauce latte, easy on the ice, making sure they melt the carmel into the espresso so it doesn't clump up on the bottom. But I'm not too picky or anything. Mmmm, my mouth is watering just thinking about it...

Tamara B. said...

auntrene said...

Miss Rachel Ann, I have seen your smile on all the blogs I have already visited. You are right next to the comment box on most of them. You have been a busy lady this morning.
I have a shocker for you, and anyone else. I HAVE NEVER EVER BEEN TO STARBUCKS.. why you ask, I live in Hicksville and love it.
We do now have a Starbucks about a 20 minute drive away. I would love to go. So if I win this gift card I will be trying something wonderful I am sure.
Thanks for the awesome giveaway, and good luck today.. (I haven't listed a giveaway, but I am now thinking I should)hmmm...
