Starbucks $10 Gift Card Giveaway (ends 7/1) (closed)


Well, I am now getting the chance to try out the new rafflecopter.  I wasn't sure I would get it to work very well, for me, but I did it!  I am running my first giveaway using this--we'll see how it works.  I decided to offer a $10 gift card to Starbucks since it is indeed one of my favorite places to go.  And you are such terrific readers, and you deserve something special.  I will tell you that this is financed completely by me, but you are worth it!  So, here goes.  Be sure to follow all the guidelines when entering this giveaway.  I will not count invalid entries! Sorry I am not doing unlimited entries, but I thought I would try these new tools out, and I should get better at it after a while.  I certainly like entering giveaways with rafflecopter--much faster.  We'll see how it goes.  I am willing to ship this anywhere, but if there is not a Starbucks in your neck of the woods, then please don't enter.

    Rafflecopter is all right, but I don't think the best. If one's history or cookies are deleted, it wants you to input at least the first entry again in order to do the daily tweet. Someone did post what to do about this, but to put "entry non-applicable" or some other phrase just seems like...I don't know. I just don't like that one aspect. Overall, get the bugs worked out of it, it will be a great way to do giveaways.

    I think #7 is mixed up. It asks you to blog but then in the other part, it asks how you like Rafflecopter. There is no place to put the URL that I blogged at, so here it is.
