My Goody Box Giveaway

So, as I was washing the breakfast dishes (and I'm not gonna mention the time...cough, cough, 6 pm, cough) I began thinking about the giveaways being offered by bloggers around the internet. Since I have won a couple and I always want to give back, I decided I should have a giveaway of my own. I had an empty shoebox just sitting on the kitchen table, don't ask me why it was there, and I decided to fill it with a few new, never been opened items that I had on hand. If you're interested, I'm giving you a chance to win my shoebox. These are the items in my shoebox: 1) a bottle of Oil of Olay hydrating lotion. I have loved Oil of Olay for years! 2) A mini vacuum cleaner for your computer keyboard. 3) a Totes Key Finder. I can never find my keys, or sometimes my car but that's another story. 4) A car pillar pocket to hold your cell phone. Did I mention I can never find my cell phone? 5) A Clorox Bleach Pen. I will randomly pick a winner on February 14th.
** All you have to do to win this goody box is leave a comment with an email address. In that comment tell me if you're doing anything special for yourself or someone else on Valentine's Day. I'm making a heart shaped cake for my family and we're all going out to a movie.
** For an extra entry, go hug your kids and tell them you love them. I trust you, just tell me in a comment that you did some hugging.
** And if you want to mention this giveaway in your blog, leave a link back here and you can have another entry.
