Grab Bag Giveaway


This is the first of what I hope to be a monthly giveaway!  For the first month this will be limited to the U.S. and Canada.  Depending on how well this goes over I would like to go international with it.

I love grab bag gifts, I have since I was little. There is just something about choosing a gift at random and the anticipation of finding out what you got. I also love Half Price Books and I spend a great deal of time there.  While there I always find some amazing deals and I want to start sharing the wealth! I have started amassing a giveaway pile during my last few excursions there and now it's time to start sharing.

The details:
  • Your prize will be a gently used book or books
  • The winner will be contacted and asked to pick a number from a pre-determined set (such as 1-10). Your prize will be completely random based on the number that you pick. Genres of prize books include mystery/thriller, romance, paranormal, sci-fi, fantasy, historical fiction, horror ** The winner will be able to choose which genre(s) that their prized gets picked from. (That way no one ends up with a genre they absolutely hate!) **
  • The giveaway will be open from now until 12:01am EST on June 15th.
  • The winner will be picked on June 16th and contacted via e-mail.  The winner will have 48 hours to respond. If there is no response after 48 hours I will choose another winner.  
To enter, simply fill out the rafflecopter below.  If you choose to do a review of your prize please let me know and I would love to post and link to your review.  Good luck!

    Good Surprises can be fun and make you feel alive. But I doubt anyone out there wants bad surprises. Big Money, Big Prizes! No Whammies!
