Fab Freebie: If You Were Here: a house log

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***
And the random winner who is about to get their read and their Hands-on on is… Julie Smith (who said we’d see her at her desk in the office day dreaming of going home and painting her half wrapped up bathroom project). Congrats Julie!
That is the title of Jen Lancaster’s latest bestselling book – and if you enjoy the story of a young couple renovating their first home (ya never know… you simply might), this book belongs on your reading list. Jen never fails to crack us up and we were flabbergasted when we she mentioned us last year on her journal. So now that her home improvement-tastic tale is landing in stores as a paperback this week, we thought a giveaway was in order. You will get a copy of If You Were Here plus a quite special bookmark. In fact it is a $100 gift card to Home Depot, so I am sure you can find a better use for it than simply keeping your page.

- PRIZE: A copy of “If You Were Here” by Jen Lancaster and a $100 Home Depot gift card
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “IF YOU WERE HERE” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: … tell us what we might see if we were with you right now. Perhaps we’d see the latest house project you are in the midst of? Or the inside of the crowded subway you are commuting on? Or perhaps we’d see what you are chowing down on over your lunch break at work?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, March 7th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: The 48 contiguous United States (though we try to snag as many international giveaways as possible)
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That is right, come right back here on Thursday for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…
Note: We are not paid or perked for hosting these giveaways, we simply do ‘em to thank you excellent folks for stopping in. See our Giveaway FAQ page for more info. Pics courtesy of Penguin Books.
