Barbie OR Pumpkin Masters Giveaway!

In my last blog, I wrote that the first people to e-mail me could win the "Barbie and the Diamond Castle" DVD.
Maybe you thought online giveaways would go too quickly. Maybe you're not feeling all that lucky. Maybe you thought you missed you're chance—but you didn't! So I just wanted to break the ice and say: You still have your chance! It's easy: E-mail me and I will actually send you a DVD!
In fact, in addition to my regular blog, I'll be tacking on some occasional giveaway opportunities. So keep reading. Hopefully you are doing that already and I will thank you for doing so with more giveaways.
I'll keep it simple. October is just around the corner and one of my favorite Autumn activities is pumpkin-carving. So the first people to e-mail me at rchristman@metroparentmagazine.com will receive either the Barbie and the Diamond Castle DVD or the Casket Case Pumpkin Carving Kit. Everything you need to carve a super scary pumpkin is included in this case: 7 patterns, 2 saws, 1 poker, 1 scoop scraper. Just let me know which you'd prefer.
Looking forward to hearing from you!
Update: Thanks to everyone who emailed me, but the DVDs and carving kits have all been sent out. Keep reading for upcoming giveaways!
