Thanks Sadie! I'm really excited.

I'm trying to think up a REALLY good contest. The kind of giveaway that is SO BIG that the whole internet hears about it. Got any ideas?

Contest Idea

This is my idea:

Give each contestant (and they would have to register with you first so you know who is playing) a set amount of play money, say $200.00.

They would then have to go to all around the internet to find the BEST deals out there for their money.

One catch could be that they either have to or can't use DH to find these deals.

The person who posts what they could buy with their "play" money with the most items for their money would win.

Is this silly, doable? Anybody got any other ideas on this?

I like Paulina's idea. Another variant would be, instead of the one person with the most items wins, the one person who "buys" the most merchandise based on the original or list price of the items would win. I'm not too sure I'm saying this clearly. One way, you are just counting the number of items. However, one person might find 400 items (including freebies) for the $200 with a retail value of say only around $400. Another person might find only one or two "Big" items for the $200 but the retail value might be, say, $1,500. If you go by retail value, the second person would win the contest.
