My 1st Giveaway - $50 PayPal Gift Card

Hello readers. I'm excited because it's time for my very first giveaway here at 'Luke, I am Your Father'. And it's just in time for Mother's Day.

Ok, technically by the time a winner is selected it will be too late to use for Mother's Day, but if you are still looking for last minute gifts before Sunday, head over to the Official PayPal Shopping site to see the deals they are offering. I was impressed with the number and variety of things they had to offer.

As for the giveaway, the winner will receive $50 in PayPal credit to use however they see fit. All you have to do to enter is to leave a comment on this post by May 13th. A winner will be chosen at random on Friday May 14th.

And, like any good blog giveaway, you can receive additional entries by subscribing to my RSS Feed, or Tweeting a link back to this post and mentioning @SeattleDad in the tweet. Just leave a separate comment here letting me know that you did so. Please also leave an e-mail where you can be contacted.

Winner must be a resident of the U.S or Canada.

So that's it. This is a bit of a test run for me, and depending on how it goes I may or may not hold additional giveaways.

Let me know what you think.

You should tell us what to comment on, like otherwise people like me will just stare at the blank white box for forty minutes. I'm blaming you that no laundry is getting done.
