When I posted last week about the Homes.com Pinterest giveaway offering a $500 Visa gift card, I expected serious excitement. I expected entries in the hundreds … perhaps even thousands.
At last count it’s 39.
So what went wrong? (And I pose this question with the understanding that the giveaway is still open for entries) …
It’s 500-free-for-you-dollars my blog friends! Not $50. Not $100. $500 that you can use anywhere … well, anywhere Visa is accepted … which is pretty much everywhere.
I’m thinking the rules were confusing. Or seemed complicated.
So let me un-complicate things for you right here and right now…
That’s it.
Now you’re in the running to win $500.
Seriously. You need to enter. If not for you, but for the health of my head. All this head scratching is making my scalp sore …
The contest is open until 11:59 PM EST on Friday, May 25 …
And if you want to get some repins or Tweets or FB shout-outs from Homes.com – and me too, for that matter — can I suggest your pin more than just the required 4 pins. Put some Spring Into The Dream inspiration on there too …
P.S. Be sure to take it outdoors this week so you can link up to our multi-blog “The Great Outdoors” party on May 29. It goes live at 7 AM EST. And when you link here, you’ll be linked on 5 fabulous blogs. Click on the blue folder for more …

okay, initially i was thinking way to complicated for this pea brain of mine, but since you broke it down above I think I can handle this – and the $500 bucks!.

I love you… thanks for hounding us, I thought I would get in the swing of things this long weekend. Instead, I opted to redecorate my main bathroom at the same time as working on the renovation of my second bathroom while I painted and primped my new laundry and breakfast room… I went garage saling too and then to the nursery to pick up some new plants for my garden and then to Home Depot to buy a new tool… I think I am too tired now to play. Sigh. I’ll try again tomorrow.
ps I have been eating coconut oil every day now for a few months because it’s supposed to give you more energy and help digestion and whatever – I think it’s working!!!

I think I’ve got it!

Not complicated in the least
Kelly @ View Along the Way says
Oohhhhh. I totally thought it was more complicated. I’m glad you’re patient and explain things for those of us who like to over-complicate. I’m doing it. Right this second.

Wow, thanks for the clarification. I hadn’t known about the blog.home.com pins so I’m headed to do that now. Hoping to have some time to spend (waster) pinning some fun spring inspiration to my board. Hard to get in the spring mood when it’s already summer here. 🙂 Have an awesome week…hope you great outdoors project is coming together better than mine. 🙂
