$25 Amazon/PP GA-WW-Winter Wonders GA Hop-Ends 1/16


This is the first hop of 2016 which is hosted by Planet Weidknecht and LeahSay's Views . I know for a fact that there will be two (2) in the month of January and you will find them both here (as well as however many others they host over the year!) on Miki's Hope. There are lots of other bloggers participating as well and you can find a clickable linky below my Rafflecopter to take you to them. All of their prizes have to be worth at least $25--so, as usual, I suggest you go and see what else you might be able to win!!!

No surprise what Miki's Hope is giving away to one lucky winner who is 18 years of age or older and resides somewhere in the world (WW) and can accept either a $25 Amazon GC or $25 PayPal. I was tempted to giveaway something else-but honestly I'm setting this up early and I kind of just got out of the hospital and the brain is barely functioning yet. Plus--my mind is on YEAR END work for my clients and getting my taxes ready to go--(Hum--maybe I'll write a blog post on that-what it took to whip my finances in order this year and/or what it feels like to be in a prisoner in a hospital for 7 whole days and/or what do you get the neighbor who took care of my cat, Baby, for the entire time I was incarcerated (I really was sick in the hospital-not prison!!). If you have ever entered one of my giveaways you probably know the drill--Rafflecopter will be used to choose the 1 winner-I will email that winner who has 48 hours to reply to my email and tell me which prize they want--The $25 Amazon GC or the $25 PayPal and the email they wish it sent to. Miki's Hope is responsible for getting the prize to the winner.
