Black Friday Blog Hop & Contest

I confess: I HATE Black Friday. I have only shopped on Black Friday once and that was enough to keep me far, far away from stores on the Friday after Thanksgiving. Nope, there is no deal that will entice me into that type of shopping madness. Instead, I sit quietly at home enjoying the fact that my Christmas shopping was completed weeks ago when there was no danger of me losing life or limb in my pursuit of the perfect gift.

So, tell me: are you a Black Friday shopper, a planner like me who shops way ahead of time or are you a last minute, two hours before closing time Christmas Eve shopper? Leave your e-mail address to be entered in the drawing for the Grand Prizes (see below). Complete contest rules are below.


While the rest of the US is out handling the crowds, fighting for their holiday gifts, some of us like to stay in, shop online, or just ignore Black Friday all to together. This year, join us in our second annual Black Friday Blog Hop! It’s a ONE DAY hop where we’re giving away prizes, talking about books we love, and most likely eating left over turkey. 🙂

The hop is November 23rd and is ONE DAY only.

And while we do that, we are EACH doing a giveaway. Yep. There will be over 200 giveaways on each blog hosted by that Author or Blogger.

But that’s not all….

We have THREE grand prizes. You as a reader can go to EACH blog and comment with your email address and be entered to win. Yep, you can enter over 200 times!

Now what are those prizes?

1st Grand Prize: A Kindle Fire or Nook Tablet (International Entries Welcome)

2nd Grand Prize: A $75 Amazon or B&N Gift Card (International Entries Welcome)

3rd Grand Prize: A Swag Pack that contains paperbacks, ebooks, 50+ bookmarks, cover flats, magnets, pens, coffee cozies, and more (US ONLY)!

Book Reviews & More by Kathy prize is a $5.00 gift certificate to Amazon or Barnes & Noble (WINNER”S CHOICE).

    I do online shopping on cyber Monday. It’s just so much easier now, plus I live in the suburbs, so the drive to even get to the stores is a pain.

    I am not much for shopping on Black Friday. I go when I have time to go. So if it happens to be on Black Friday I just try to keep a smile on my face. 🙂

    I shop a little throughout the year, picking up little things here and there. Most of my shopping is done online as I hate the traffic and crowds. I do enjoy Cyber Monday and have gotten some good Amazon deals this week.
