The Blues Blogger’s Random Prize Draw: Amazon Gift Certificate

Posted on October 14th, 2009 by The Blues Blogger

————THIS DRAW IS NOW CLOSED ————-

Congratulations to CoolBus!!! He won the Amazon Gift Certificate Random Draw. Your $50.00 gift card has been emailed… Thanks everyone for your overwhelming support! I have a few more surprises in store in the weeks to come… Stay tuned!!!

As I mentioned in my previous Delta Blues Book Giveaway post last week, I wanted to give some of my readers outside North America a chance to win something as well. So I’m offering one Amazon gift certificate valued at $50.00 dollars U.S. The winner will be able to use this for many of the terrific items on the Amazon website. This gift certificate is available for my readers in the United States, France, Germany, UK, Japan, Canada and China. When the winner is drawn and confirmed, I will send the certificate by email… Not a major prize here, just a way of saying thanks for being there and stopping by The Blues Blogger’s home on the net. And for celebrating my 2nd Anniversary this month!

The Rules Are Simple

You will need to subscribe to my e-mail list at the top of the page where it says Receive Updates by Email. Enter your email address and press click here. When you submit the form, you will receive a verification message in your in-box. Once you respond to this message you are subscribed. That’s it! I promise no spam and you can always unsubscribe at anytime… All current Blues Blogger subscribers are automatically entered.

For Extra Entries Into The Draw

You will still need to subscribe for 1 entry and for the chance to win… But I will also add 1 extra entry for anybody that adds a comment to this post and another for anyone who re-tweets this post on Twitter by hitting the green retweet button below. (If you retweet you should really leave a comment here on the blog letting me know you did. This will allow better tracking and gives you 3 entries into the draw.)

Deadline

The random prize draw will end November 4th 2009 at 11:00 pm eastern standard time in the U.S. The winner will have 24 hours to respond or a new entry will be drawn… Of course it wouldn’t be the same if I didn’t end a blues blogger post with a song. Here’s one to get you rockin’

Have Fun and Good Luck,

The Blues Blogger

Eric Clapton was great in the old days — but when he started playing the blues he went into a realm that is just breathtaking. I thought I’d seen all of the videos with Eric and BB King — where did you find this one? It’s probably the best!

Nadine Larsen // Oct 20, 2009 at 11:14 pm

I subscribe via email and google. The best concert I ever went to was at a small intimate place to see Jerry Lee Lewis. He put on a great show and then came and sat with us after at my request. It was my husbands birthday and he is a huge JLL fan, Jerry happily obliged and spent the rest of the night with us. It was the best birthday gift I ever got hubby, tickets to a show and a night of partying with JLL.
