Thank you for your support!

On July 5 my heart almost stopped as I saw my dream vacation to the Antarctica being offered in a voting contest. I emailed everyone I could think of to ask for votes. I tried to explain to my friends that it was one vote per email, etc. Receiving more questions than I could respond to, I have created this blog to continue providing answers.

So you will continue reading this blog, I am creating a sweepstakes. Here are the rules:

1. Let me know you have been here by visiting:

http://www.blogyourwaytoantarctica.com/blogs/view/268

2. Come back and tell me what your number was (if you voted) and your means of contact if you are a winner. A vote is not required to win.

3. Entries accepted through midnight on September 30, 2009. Ten winners to be drawn on October 1, 2009.

4. There will be a total of ten prizes added over the next few days. A beginning list is posted below. Prizes will be awarded in order of names drawn.
  • A new Game Boy Advance SP ARV $199.00
  • Victoria's Secret set of five Eau de Parfum spays with glittery gold cover atomizer
  • Terry Cloth Spa bag full of slippers, bath salts, bubble bath, and body lotion
  • Yellow Beauty Basket including new products of nail polish, make up, mascara, emory boards, body lotion, lip gloss, foundation, multi-pencil sharpener, make-up sponges, etc.
