Closed12 Days Of Chrismas Giveaways- Day 1- Big Skinny Wallets

Posted by Bobbie Gould on November 22, 2010
in Contests, Giveaways

Congratulations to Karen F! You won this giveaway! Thanks to all who entered and to Big Skinny for sponsoring this great giveaway. Winner chosen by Random.org

I guess we should have called this the 12 days of Holiday Giveaways, but oh well, Christmas was on my brain when we talked about it here at home. I may have to extend some of the giveaways to make sure they receive enough exposure though, but wanted to get the bulk of the work completed before I go back to my client full-time.

Anywoo…..On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to YOU- A wallet of YOUR choice from Big Skinny! One winner will get a wallet of their choice from Big Skinny! Exciting huh!

Big Skinny has a variety of products including our two favorites:

Woman’s Taxicat Bi-Fold Wallet In Pink and I really liked this wallet. It was not too bulky, and I loved the pink color! 🙂 I really liked that the plastic “thing” in the wallet kept my money from sliding around and falling out. I thought that this wallet was a great addition to any woman’s closet! This wallet comes in 6 colors and is $23.95. I think this wallet is my favorite of the two wallets.

Executive Checkbook Bi-Fold Wallet With Zippered Pocket In Purple: This great wallet is perfect for the working woman as it holds about 40 thick plastic cards, checkbook, and stretched out cash money plus coins. Their special “divide & conquer” design breaks up your cards into 4 discrete areas so they don’t all stagger on one long row leaving huge lumps. How cool is that? The wallet was very nice. And comes in 6 colors. This wallet is $25.95.

We have a change of plans. Instead of our normal Faith and Family Reviews Giveaway today, on Sunday we will be featuring 12 Days of Christmas Giveaways! We had a ton of reviews and giveaways to feature and as we were scheduling them we discovered some of them were getting pretty close to Christmas and many of these things would make wonderful Christmas gifts. That’s when we decided to do a week’s worth of giveaways to give you all a chance to win these products and receive them in time for Christmas. We may still feature our Friday Giveaways in December, but we may also take the month off. So gear your typing fingers up to enter some great giveaways! A huge thank you to the generosity of the companies sponsoring the giveaways: Organic Boutique, Big Skinny, Diamond Earrings, Frecklebox, Lillebaby Eurotote (via Mom Spark and Happy, Healthy Moms Product Review Team) , Progresso (via MyBlogSpark), 77kids (via The Motherhood), EZ Socks, EllaWrap.
