I posted on Friday that I had received my MamaRoo in the mail and LOVED it. I also said pictures were forthcoming. Well here they are:

Baby E loves it to play in:

Mama loves it because it rocks him to sleep so I can get thing done:

Thanks so much for this fantastic prize! I am SOOO glad I won! I am a lucky girl to have this!!

Anyone remember this post when I told you that I won a mamaRoo plush in Green Jax.?


Well, the MamaRoo Plush has FINALLY been launched which means mine could FINALLY got out in the mail, and look what just showed up on my door step?!

When Wes gets home he will have to help me put it together then I will post pictures of Everest enjoying his new awesome toy!

I have been sitting on this for a couple weeks and was unable to share this until it was official! It is now official and I am SOOOO excited to share this personal BIG WIN with you!

I told you all here about how through my association as a BzzAgent on Bzzagent.com,
I got the chance to take a challenge from Silk! I got to try the Silk for Milk 10-day challenge!

Well as part of that Bzz campaign, there was an option to post up to 3 videos about my 10 day challenge experience. Each video would enter youinto a contest to possibly win FREE Silk Milk for 6 months, or a GRAND PRIZE of $5000. I got this news a couple weeks ago:

Yes-you read that right-my submission was selected as the GRAND PRIZE winner pending elegibility verification. Well as of yesterday I was informed that my verification is done and I am Officially the Grand Prize Winner of $5000!!!!!! WAHOO!!!!

SOOO...my "winning experiment" has taken a hyatis while I have had the baby and tried to adjust to being a mom of 5...wow that is harder than people say...

BUT in spite of the fact that I have not entered many giveaways, I have managed to win a few things and a couple of them were big ones! Here is one of the Biggies!! I won a mamaRoo plush in Green Jax.

If you check out the 4moms website here, and scroll down a bit, you will see this:

How awesome will this be for baby Everest?! I cannot wait for it to get here!! WAHOO!!!

I know it is not WINSday, but I won a couple of things this week, that I was SOOOO excited about that I had to tell you about them!!

First, I won a Posh Lily $25 Gift Card from Because Cheaper is Better. Oh my gosh-have any of you checked out Posh Lily?! There are SUPER cute little girl items there and I am a sucker for those cute homemade items!

Want to know what I chose to spend my $25 on?! I chose the Olivia Combo, the Beautiful and Elegant Sky Blue Rhinestone Flower Hair Tie and the Gorgeous and FUN Butterfly Clippie. See the Olivia collection below:

Another giveaway I won this morning made me totally freak out (in a good way)! WHen I entered it last night I said to my husband, "Well, I promise I will not win this one because I really, REALLY want it!" Imagine my excitement this morning when I checked my email to find I HAD won the Tillen Farms VIP Sampler from Learning to be Thrifty.

Can I say that when we lived in Spokane, Washington I fell madly in love with all the family farms and fresh foods! I so miss and adore going and grabbing fresh yummy produce so easily there! Not that we cannot get fresh foods here in Omaha, but there are just not that many farms that sell their foods directly (and really what I get to buy here is corn and pumpkins...)

Anyway, Tillen Farms "works closely with select farmers in Washington State’s agriculturally rich Yakima Valley where the unique climate produces world class fruits and veggies". They clean, trim, steam and rapidyl chill the produce then can them and send them out to us! I am seriously SOOO excited to get this.

Check out the VIP Sampler I will be getting:

Now is your mouth watering as much as mine?!

BTW...I am now up to 27 wins since 1/16/11. 

I am sure this week will be a low week though because I have not entered any new giveaways today and I will not be on the computer again today (well probably not as my husband is on call and will likely need exclusive access to the computer when he returns from the hospital).

I thought since today was a "Winsday," I would give you all an update on my little winning experiment. (You can see the explanation of my experiment/idea to keep track of my "wins" in the last "WINSday" post here).

I started keeping track of my wins on the blog on 1/16/11 and so far I have won 22 giveaways.

I thought since today was a "Winsday," I would give you all an update on my little winning experiment. (You can see the explanation of my experiment/idea to keep track of my "wins" below). 

I started keeping good track of my wins on 1/16, so it has been a month now (today is the 16th of Feb right?!). So far I have won 14 giveaways this month.  If I keep that up I will end up with WAY more than 50 in 9 months-more like 126ish...let's see how it goes! :)  Update at 2:10 pm on 2/16/11:  You can make that 15 wins!


I am lucky. Well, I have been lucky over the last year when it comes to winning giveaways and stuff. I won well over 50 things in about 9 months. I kept a count of my wins, but not a list of exactly what I won and from who/where.

I win a lot because I enter A LOT! I mostly enter LOW entry giveaways (do I have better chances to win). I use 3 different daily lists of them and just go down the list and enter them. I wrote all about how I did it on my blog here and an update as a guest post on Tight Wad in Utah's blog (I have the best luck winning from her list). Check that post out here.

I even started a page about My Winnings here on the blog. Since 1/16/11 I have been keeping track on this page of all my giveaway wins. It has not gone as I hoped it would-I feel like I am winning much less than I have been. I think my luck has run out (or maybe more of you are winning now that I told you my secrets-that would be much better than my luck running out...).

You should check out My Winnings page every so often to keep tabs on how it is going.

Today I thought I would give you the update though that Since 1/16/11 (just less than a month) I have won 11 giveaways. Just an FYI...

What have you won recently?

In case you are reading this in just an email or a feed, I wanted to let you know you should stop by and take a look at a couple new features on the blog. If you look across the top (under the title) you will see that I have added a couple of new pages: Giveaways at Beckees Deals and My Winnings.

The Giveaways at Beckees Deals page has a list of all current giveaways on the blog as well as a list of all old giveaways I have done with the winner listed! Check it out here.

On the My Winnings page I have begun to keep track of all the giveaways I win. If you are interested in reading about how I win so many giveaways (well over 50 in the past 9 months), there are links to the posts I have written about my methods. There is also a running list of what I have won that I update with each win. I have one new one to add today!! Make sure you go check out the full list on the page here.
