You know that I have an affinity for all things free, and contests of any kind, right? And you know that ONE DAY I WILL WIN A CAR, right? Well, I’m going to. Someday. I can’t say when, but I WILL. Positive thinking, right? Well, I want to give you the heads up on a little contest that’s going on where you, too, could possibly win a new car. A local radio station, 101.9 KENZ<\/a> is asking you to guess when they will play their millionth song. It could play anytime between now and memorial day. The closest guess wins a Mazda Miata. I’ve already entered my guess, and really folks, it’s just a guess. I have no scientific way to calculate the day the song will be played, although I asked my genius husband to figure it out for me. He declined. But if it’s just a guess, then you might as well enter, right? Because I would LOVE to win, but if I didn’t win, I would love for YOU to win. Then you could drive me around and run my errands with me. <\/p>\n

So, to enter, just go here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

And really, I don’t think you have to be a local resident to win. If you live somewhere far away and you should happen to win, then I’d be HAPPY to accept your prize for you until you can get yourself to Utah to pick it up.<\/p>\n

And on a much smaller scale, I’m hosting my own little contest. I’ve been at this blogging thing for a while, and I’m coming up on my 2000th comment. So why not have a reward for you, the commenters? That’s right, folks, prizes!! Yes, you could say I’m just bribing you a to comment frequently, or you could just look at it as another contest. What’s the prize?<\/p>\n

I’ve looked into my bag of tricks, and so far I’ve come up with:
\n–my favorite little IKEA spatula
\n\"spatula\"
\nYes, it’s a cheap little spatula set, and that’s probably why I love them so much. That and they are just the right size for your scooping needs.<\/p>\n

–A $10 Toys R Us gift card,
\n–Two free Kids’ Meals at TGI Fridays
\n–Two Tickets to the Hale Center Theater in Orem (if you aren’t local, then I’ll find something else for you)
\n–An entree and soft drink from the California Pizza Kitchen
\n–Two free kids meals to Mimi’s Cafe
\n–a book. I don’t know which book, but I’ll find something<\/p>\n

And whatever else I feel like throwing in. <\/p>\n

So, go forth and comment, and when we reach comment number 2000, confetti will come out of the screen, balloons will fall from the sky, and prizes will be awarded! Ok, I probably can’t make confetti come out of your screen OR balloons fall from the sky, but there WILL be prizes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
