It’s Good to Have Friends

I hope you have a LOT of them.

Not just because it’s nice to have people to share things with, but, well, because it’s REALLY nice to have people to share things with!

This is the BIG Giveaway I have been hinting at for weeks…not ONE KitchenAid 5 Quart Stand Mixer…but TWO. Want to know how to win??

Of course you do….

UPDATE: This Giveaway is now closed. Congratulations ARIELLA who commented :

“Cool Giveaway! I saw the tweet from you! Would love to win! I will go FB now!”

I have emailed you Ariella…and you get to pick the friend who gets the 2nd mixer. Unless, of course, you want ME to have it since you saw MY tweet.(Just kidding people, I wouldn’t do that!)

Thanks for playing along everyone..and please keep coming back – I’ll do another giveaway as soon as I can!

Friends. You need them.

Here’s how this giveaway id going to work. The more friends you have, the more chances you have to win. Yes, really. That’s how it’s going to work!

First things first, LEAVE a COMMENT AFTER you have either TWEETED this Giveaway or POSTED it to your Facebook Page. Heck you can even POST it on your own website if you want, but only leave me ONE COMMENT saying which you did. Yes, you can comment “Hey, I Tweeted, I FB’ed, I posted.” Cool – that’s fine. But ONE COMMENT ONLY.

Here’s where the friend part comes in to play…

When you tweet, or Facebook, or Post, make sure you tell your readers to MENTION YOU when they come here. For example, let’s say you are SpongeBob and you Facebook everyone you know. Try something like this:

“I just entered to win a KitchenAid Mixer at www.doughmesstic.com – but I need YOUR help. Go check out the giveaway yourself, Comment to win, but mention that “SpongeBob” sent you.” Say anything you like. Beg. Plead. Just get them OVER HERE and have them comment that YOU sent them.

Why? Because if THAT comment is randomly chosen as the winner, BOTH of you win a KitchenAid Mixer. BOTH OF YOU! I’ll even let each of you pick the color of your choice! That means you could have hundreds, nay, thousands of chances to win. It just depends on how many of your friends you can get to enter! Of course, they too can repost the info on their own page, and thus invite even more folks over to the giveaway. It’s a WIN-WIN for everyone. Call your Aunt Lucy and tell her to enter. Email your college roommates from 1996. The more friends, the better your chances. Make sense?

You may be wondering, what happens if the random winner comment is one of the comments that only says something like “I Tweeted..” – Still great news for you…YOU get to choose a friend to give the other mixer to! it just needs to be someone who commented and listed YOU as the referral.

Biggest RULE of the game – you MUST either FOLLOW me on Twitter OR be a FaceBook Fan. One or the other. And yes, I will be verifying once the winners are randomly selected. Sorry – that’s the way it is. You may or may not know this, but it is wise to follow me AND Fan me…I give bonus entries on those sites!

Sorry folks abroad, this contest is only open to those with US Postal addresses. KitchenAid’s are heavy and cost a fortune to ship! Plus, this giveaway is not sponsored by any one other than She’s Becoming DoughMessTic. Aren’t I the beesknees? No, really??

Contest ends precisely at MIDNITE on Tuesday, March 9th. Not one minute past. Winners will be announced on Wednesday once winning entries are counted and verified. Good luck!!
