COMMENTING IS CLOSED. WINNER ANNOUNCED here.

Brought to you by:

Oh, and also by my husband, who generously finances my romp through life.

Just couldn’t miss out on taking him for all he’s got hosting another giveaway. It was so much fun last time! The sheer joy it brought me last week motivated my man’s benevolent spirit again this week. For real. (Dang, he’s yummy!)

It was pretty obvious what it HAD to be, the giveaway.

All things Anne Taintor. Because, ya’ know……….

So, lookie, lookie at what’s up for grabs!

Two books, a journal, a notepad, three magnets, a keychain and two sheets of stickers.

Would I lie to you, dear reader?!



You know you want this one. So do I.

There are four simple rules:

1. Go to Anne’s website and have fun poking around. If you don’t know her, you may be thinking you don’t want to take the time to go, but Listen. To. Me.

If you don’t go, you won’t ever know that you, in fact, LOVE Anne Taintor. You just don’t realize it yet.

I promise, this will be fun.

2. Under the Products menu, click on Find Your Favorite, and peruse Anne’s designs.

3. Then come back and leave a comment telling me which Anne Taintor piece is your favorite by caption. (One contest entry per reader, please.)

4. Promise you’ll come back and read She Just Had To Say It. I’m not above “buying traffic” y’all.

And VOILA – you’ll be entered to win a little bit more than, but, shhh, don’t tell hubby! $50 worth of my favorite Anne Taintor products. (I am happy to pay for shipping to U.S. Residents only. If you are outside the contingent U.S., you may enter, but need to agree to pay shipping costs via Paypal.)

As if this wasn’t enough of a big deal, y’all, Anne Taintor is READING YOUR COMMENTS!!! For real. So brag big on her, girls!

I must say this is MIGHTY BIG OF ME, dear reader. Because it is going to take all of the self-control that I don’t possess to keep from commenting a million times as “Anonymous” just so I can be the one to win the goods. Because, waaaaaaaaaaaah, I want to keep it all for myself.

Seriously, a winner (who won’t be me) will be chosen by a Random Number Generator.

Have at it, Anne Taintor fans.

And just in case you want to enter other Giveaways, click here.

But I wouldn’t know why you would, because nothing tops this prize, y’all.

I’m just sayin’.

WOW! I had never seen this before, and you are right dear blogger, I DO now love Anne Taintor. And I especially love her flasks! The one that says
Surely it must be 5:00 somewhere

Brilliant!

I have heard of Anne Taintor and I love her work! I love the ones that seem to apply to me the best (so many do though) but I am partial to “medicated and motivated”. Oh please, I know exactly what mother’s little helper really is. :-D

I have to say I was quite amused by her captions. Very witty.
My fave is “She thought of him fondly as ‘Plan B’”.

I like the “someone called about something”. Sounds like the phone messages I get from my 16yo son!

I thought I wouldn’t like these.. OMG.. I’m in love! I can’t have enough of these!!

So far I love the one that says
“not all bad girls wear black”

So True…

These are so hilarious! I think my favorites is:

“tadaa! now let’s have a cocktail…”

That sounds like my life.

Thanks for the giveaway!

I thought several were funny, but I want to buy the magnet that says “I love not camping!” Oh, my family would KNOW it was me.

My fav is “it would, of course, have to look like an accident”. That is too funny. Thanks for the link to her site. I just might order some things.

LOL – These are really great!!! Today I’m liking the “remember sweetheart, mommy loves you but she doesn’t have to like you” magnet! Ohhhhh, so true sometimes. Great giveaway – I’d love to win! Thanks and please enter mine, too! :D

It was a tough choice, but I’m going with:

“she was one frozen entree away from a nervous breakdown”

Oh you have no idea how close…..

Thanks for the opportunity to enter your giveaway!

Beth April 25, 2008 at 5:43 pm

Thank you for the awesome giveaway! Anne Taintor rocks! “Make your own damn dinner!” is my number one favorite!

Lisa April 25, 2008 at 5:57 pm

I LOVE Anne Taintor! I used to get the twelve-month calendar every year, but haven’t been able to find it for the past couple of years. I have gobs of the magnets, and I think my favorite of what I already have is “Make your own damn dinner”. That, or “It’s so involved being me”, because my son is blond and blue-eyed like the baby on that one, and that’s totally him to a T.

From the site – it’s a toss-up between “Do the words gifted and talented mean anything to you?” and “Honey, you couldn’t handle half of me” (I need that one on a messenger bag!).

Great stuff, and great giveaway!

Beautiful stuff…. love it.
One of my faves is: “maybe I want to look cheap” –cosmetic bag.

That was hard to pick.. I love them all… :) … but after much consideration I’m gonna have to go with Tadaa! Now Let’s Have A Cocktail…

Audrey April 25, 2008 at 7:27 pm

” domestically disabled” is the best because it describes me.

Reply

Judith Greenberg April 25, 2008 at 7:46 pm

She has so many great products. My favorite, the magnet with “they made it their strict policy never to err on the side of caution”.

“What muffled screams officer” is great. Great giveaway! Count me in. bebemiqui82(at)yahoo(dot)com

I love SO MANY of these. If I have to choose one I would say “why yes, I am overqualified” Thanks for the fantastic giveaway!

Marsha April 25, 2008 at 8:51 pm

Loved the site
it’s a hard call between Because I’m the mother or domestically disabled.

either would be great

Awesome giveaway and thanks for participating. Now I sure hope I win.

her proudest achievement was staying blonde; this is my fav saying. I’ve never seen these products before either.

“what muffled screams, officer?” made me laugh out loud!! So fun! Thanks for the great giveaway!

Reply

Besu April 26, 2008 at 1:41 am

I just laughed the hardest I have all day. I think Anne Taintor is describing MY LIFE. My favorite was “if “by happy” you mean trapped with no means of escape…? then yes, I’m happy” but there were several others I also loved. If I don’t win, I’m still going to be buying things from her. Thank you so much for posting this contest so I could discover Anne’s site!

I just love the caption: “Who want’s mommy’s low-fat snack bar?” I love, love the vintage images. And the type-font that looks like fridge poetry. Everything is so wonderfully kitchy. Thanks for the awesome giveaway!
