Annual Subscriber Monday Giveaway!

So who braved WalMart and the mall on Friday? If you did, I applaud you! 
 
Remember when we used to have to wait until Thanksgiving morning to go through the ads and make our shopping lists? These days, ads are available online well before Black Friday, and the deals start way earlier, too! In a way, that makes me sad because it takes away from the excitement and anticipation. But, as a love-to-plan-aheader, I love it. I got some fabulous deals on Thanksgiving day. On Black Friday, I avoided the crowds and stayed home in my jammies to deck my halls.

And today is Cyber Monday, when the online deals are supposed to be REALLY good. I'm sure there will be a few hard-to-pass-up sales, but many are probably prices that were probably offered last week and/or will be offered again in the next couple of weeks. But, hey. I don't want to put a damper on your shopping experience. I hope you find that perfect bargain!

So for the past few years, I've featured a great giveaway on Thanksgiving weekend, which I've held either as a FAITHFUL FOLLOWERS FRIDAY GIVEAWAY on Black Friday or A SUBSCRIBER MONDAY GIVEAWAY on Cyber Monday. It's my way of saying THANK YOU for taking the time to visit me throughout the year, and even indulge me once in a while with your comments. Since everyone loves gift cards, I'm offering that again as the prize this year. Choose between one of the following:

1. $20 Amazon gift card
2. $20 Christian Book Distributors.com gift card
3. $20 eBay gift card
4. $20 Barnes and Noble.com gift card 
5. $20 FamilyChristian.com gift card

Simply leave a comment letting me know which gift card you would choose, and don't forget to include your email address so I can get in touch with you if you're the winner. I will be randomly selecting a winner from all comments next Monday, December 3.

And if not, stay tuned anyway so you can congratulate the winners. 

First, the winner of Sara's Christmas Miracle by Mary Ellis. This was the 10th giveaway in The 12 Books of Christmas. 

And the winner is...

DEBRA 

Woot! I know you'll enjoy this book, Debra!

And now for the Faithful Follower gift card giveaways. First, let me say a HUGE thank you to ALL of you for entering, and especially for following my blog! You all rock and I love you to the moon and back. Which is why I decided to give away TWO prizes this year instead of just one. As mentioned above, both of these winners chose eBay as their gift card choice. They have been notified and will be receiving their electronic certificates very soon.

The two winners of the Faithful Follower Giveaway are...

LISA MIKITARIAN
