Congrats to Trish, the lucky winner! Thanks for your participation everyone!
Okay, okay! Sorry for the delay, but it was much harder to select a gift for my experimental give-away than I thought. I am testing the theory that blog-freebies increase blog traffic. Be my guinea pig, won’t you?
For my experiment I selected a small Coach demi-purse. This bag is not from the current season (hey, I’m not an heiress over here!) but it’s authentic with all tags, paperwork and the box and tissue paper, purchased at a Coach outlet. Here’s a picture for you.
Contest rules
For this give-away, all you need to do is leave a comment. That’s it. Make sure to include a valid email so I can contact you if you’re the lucky winner–you don’t have to put your full name (or real name) on the comment, but make sure you have a good email. One comment per person, please. I’ll be selecting the winner on Wednesday, February 27th at 8pm EST, so be sure to enter before 6pm that day. I’ll be using the random number generator that other bloggers use to pick my winner. I want to see just how much traffic a give-away can generate. It’s not technically a Pay-It-Forward because I’m not asking you to do anything in return, but maybe I’ll try that as my next blog-experiment!
WOWSA! Thanks so much for the giveaway!
You WILL pick my name.
That’s quite a beauty! Do count me in. Thanks!
Ooo… I want! Pick me, CurlyWurlyGurly, pick me!
LMAO. You see – you did good! You have people salivating already…
(Seriously – no purse for me.)
Man, you weren’t kidding. That’s some prize.
Good luck w/the giveaway.
No purse for me either. I visit everyday b/c I already know how great you are.
No bribery necessary.
You know, your blog came up on a random search and I added your RSS feed because of the content, not because of the notion of free stuff. You’re one of the few I read regularly!
As with #s 5 and 6, please don’t add me to the drawing.

Please, please pick my name! I saw this on another website (http://lisamm.wordpress.com/), so I’m proof that it is increasing your traffic. Let us know how it goes because I’m toying with a giveaway or two in the near future.
sorry. I forgot to add my email.

I’ve never heard of the make.
Now that means one of two things.
1. I’m not very up on the current trends
2. I really need a good new purse.
I found you through PI too.

Sounds great!

Love the purse
*Thanks* for the giveaway!
What a great giveaway! I just found your blog and couldn’t resist entering your contest for that cute purse. I’d love to win. Please include me.
I would love this purse so much!
I just started getting into enjoying purses and shoes (A little late at 34, but I’ll take what I can get.) and it would be wonderful to have such a sleek beautiful purse!
Thanks a ton for the giveaway!
(I would also love to know how the giveaway generated traffic. My blog is http://lilithology@blogspot.com, Thank you!)
Warm Blessings
Good idea…I think I would follow your lead though and give it away to someone who needs it more then I do.
love from freezing – wes-consin
Why not – cool idea.
Just leave a comment. Wow. Winning was never easier.
What a great idea. I’d love to win a Coach bag. Let’s eat some candy.

If kkbmom wins, YOU CAN SEND YOUR BAG TO ME! ha. If you don’t need it, i’d love to have it. I’m in Wisconsin too. The Dells. You’re right – IT IS FREEZING.
I thought I left a comment, but I guess not.
Funny – I was thinking about doing something similar this week (I make jewelry – was going to start giving a piece away every few days)….then I was checking out Lisamm’s blog and saw her pimping your giveaway!
I think I’m gonna do it!
OHhhhhh, the only other coach I own is one I got at a garage sale for $2.00…..I actually talked her down from $5.00! Ok, at the time I didn’t even know what a coach purse was or worth….lol. PICK ME, PICK ME. Oh and you have a great blog….I started blogging in December also. http://www.livingthegoodlife5.blogspot.com – bako1964@aol.com
Oh My! I must say in reality… if I am ever to be lucky enough to own a Coach bag I will have to be lucky enough to win one. Thank you for hosting this awesome giveaway!
I’ll be your guinea pig!
This is so cute and I could use something for myself since I am 9 months pregnant!
Oh – pick me, random number generator!
I found you off of books-on-the-brain’s site. I’d love to be considered for the cute purse. My email is crystalcgable@yahoo.com
Thanks!
i could use a new coach bag…why not?

What a great giveaway. I also blogged about your giveaway at http://contests4moms.com.
Sure, I’ll roll. But, if I win, I won’t be able to log onto email for awhile… I’m off to Costa Rica for a lovely zippy sunny holiday and will be back to visit the 2nd week of March.
This is a great prize. Thanks for the chance to win!
