Winner, Winner, Chicken Dinner

Okay, maybe not so much dinner as a gift card to Target.  Whatever.  We have a winner!

First, I tallied up all the comments.  Everyone was entered into the drawing for each comment they made:

Then I tore up sheets of paper and wrote down all the names for the drawing.  They were quite plentiful:

Then I grabbed the Official Drawing Hat of the Cheap Chick Empire.  Nothing says prize drawing like a cheese-head top hat:

I loaded up all the entries into the hat – they took up a lot of room.  Because there were so many comments.  Because YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME:

Ah, fake cheese foam.  Nothing could be finer – well, real cheese maybe.  But then, I wouldn’t want to wear it as a hat.  Moving on.  Here I am, digging deep for the winner’s name:

And I sloooooooowly pulled out a winner (drum roll, please):

And the winner is… CAROLYN!

Congratulations, Carolyn!  A $20 Target Gift Card is YOURS.  As soon as you email me your full name and mailing address, that is.  KTHXBAI.  And thank you to everyone for all your awesome commenting.  I hope now that I’m not paying you to do it, you’ll still continue to say your piece.

    that is by far the BEST way to have a blog drawing! screw that new fangled using a computer to come up with a random number crap. Cheap Chic is drawing names old school!

    Me, Carolyn?? Could it be? Could I have actually won?! My post was about my Target vice too.

    I’ll send you an email! Thanks, Erin! :)

    Congrats Carolyn!
    And yes, drawing from a cheesehat is far more exciting that a random computer generated drawing. Woot woot to the Cheap Chick for keeping it real, yo!

    Hmm – won’t Vikings fans get upset at you using a cheesehat? Next time use a Viking hat with horns! ;-)

    The Cheap Chick's Daily Deal

    Cooper Rocks!

    Many fabulous people have helped The Cheap Chick Empire throughout the years, and one of the best and coolest people to give me a hand up is Cooper Lawrence.  So I was THRILLED when I saw she had a new book out – The Yoga Club.  Dudes, you should all go buy it now and then read it and then say awesome things about it.

    Why?  Because Cooper is an amazing writer.  And?  A vastly entertaining person.  So it’s worth your time and money.  Cooper Lawrence!  She is Cheap Chick Approved.
