New Contest.

So, apologies to Donna for being so slow in sending the prize from the last contest.  It went out in the mail today so you should see it by Tuesday, next week.  (You might have to look hard for both prizes because I put so much paper in there)  :)

Since there seems to be a lack of posting, again we are going for another contest...dun dun duuuuuunnn....ready for this??  We are going on a.......scavenger hunt!!!  Oh how exciting ;)

Rules:
The pictures that we are asking for on this hunt MUST be done AFTER I post the list- pictures taken prior to March 23, 2012 will NOT count.

Do the best you can- it was intentionally made so that you likely will not be able to get them all- so don't feel bad for not finding one- there are certain things on the list that I put on there to even out the "fairness" because some places have warmer weather, some have cooler, some places are sunny, some snowy or rainy, some places have certain plants/animals,  other places have certain scenery, etc, etc.

If you don't know what something is- either ask or google it.

For the items that say "someone doing/wearing/etc" that can be anyone- someone you know or a complete stranger but if the list says "someone you know"  that (sorry to state the obvious) must be someone you know :)

To post the pictures just make a blog post, tell us what the picture is (from the given list), and what number corresponds with that picture - for example: If you take a picture of a strawberry then say something like "me eating a strawberry #24" - or something similar to that.

There will be extra items added in sneaky places so look carefully in all of the posts, comments, your emails, etc- you never know where an additional item might be posted. :)

The prize will be something of the "Lululemon, Starbucks, Nike, Exercise, Eating Healthy" nature. It's not all nailed down yet- so will let you know as we get closer to the end- but will try to make it worth everyone's time.

The contest officially starts today and ends on April 30th.  

Really confused?  Comment in this post, or text me and I will respond as quickly as I can.

Ready for the list??

  1. This should be fun Marianne and it will be a challenge to try to find all this stuff and the extra stuff to "hide"...even more incentive for everyone to be on here more and then we should see lots of fun pictures on here. What a great idea and brings back memories of your scavenger hunt from last year! Thanks for all the fun and keeping this blog going for everyone!!! :)
