In August, 2007 Abbys Good Stuff turned Five Years Old...
Since 2003, to celebrate our 'birthday' we are giving gifts to 3 lucky people every month. The only requirements are that you must be currently subscribed to "Abbys Digest", live in North America, (USA, Canada or Mexico), be over 18 and agree to allow your name and city to be added to the gift recipients list. (Full contest rules below.)
Free "Happy Birthday" Gift Packs from Abbys Good Stuff...
It's pretty simple: every month we will choose three people from the then-current subscriber list... If your birthday is in January, you will be eligible to enter for the January birthday gift pack drawing. If you were born in February, you will be eligible in the February drawing, and so on... three people will be chosen each month. Those three people will get the current gift pack. It's completely free, no shipping or handling charges, no other hidden costs.
This is just our way of saying "Thank You" for being a subscriber and helping Abbys Good Stuff to be successful. (Any questions send an email to )
The Current Gift Pack: One Bird / Pen / Duster for your desk... and something else, don't know what it will be until I go get it... (See pictures. Assorted, random colors. Sorry, but no choice on the colors you receive.)
It's a Bird! No, it's a Pen! No, it's a Keyboard Duster! Actually, it's all three, and about 9" tall. (Only one bird/pen/duster in gift pak)
Mystery Gift - Something fun, something funny, or crafty, I don't know - maybe something useful...
Just for fun... I'll add 3 or 4 smiley-face stickers, balloons, a noisemaker of some sort and a birthday card....
How it works: In the first two or three Abbys Digest Issues sent out each month I will ask readers who are celebrating a birthday that month to enter... I'll get my daughter to choose three random names from the list of respondents about the middle of the month.
If your name is chosen, you will receive your gift pack by the end of the month. Make sure the address on your entry is correct.By entering, you are agreeing to allow us to post your name and city on this page and in the newsletter IF your entry is picked as a winner.Other Terms and Conditions
Odds of winning are variable - depending on how many entries we receive. (usually about 250-300 people enter each month)
We have other freebies for our subscribers, too. If you are not currently subscribed, Click Here to go to the sign-up page and see what the newsletter is about... and see the other free gifts we offer. If you like what you see, add yourself to the list.
