I’m sorry but I just had to share this. I’m bursting at the seems. I enter a lot of giveaway but I never get “the big prize”. Understand that I appreciate anything i win. I use it too or make sure I give it to someone who can if I have my fair share.

I have to write about this one because I almost didn’t get it. Let me explain. I’m a member of several blogger sites: Mom Bloggers Club, Mom Central, SocialMoms.com, etc. I try to log into each of the sites once a week. I sign up for emails from them so I can keep abreast of any contests, changes, etc.

Well Mom Bloggers Club had a contest in June from Clorox Green Works. Everyone who entered could only have a max of 2 entries. I made sure to do both entries. I nearly forgot about the contest. There was only 1 prize and I thought there was no way I would win it.

I check my main email and secondary email daily. I check my tweets, DMs, and facebook sometimes several times a day. I won a few things here and there.

Well I logged into Mom Bloggers Club to post a giveaway and check out what was going on there. I saw I had 11 inbox messages. I honestly wasn’t even going to check it even then because it’s usually just group invites, voting requests, etc that could have waited at the time. Something prompted me to check it though. I see an email from Jennifer James saying “Clorox Green Works giveaway winner”.

So I replied, thanked her, and sent her my shipping info.  I’m thinking I maybe just won some Clorox Green Works cleaning products.  I don’t mean to say “just” but I didn’t expect it to be bigger than that.  I love winning stuff that I can use like that because it saves money on the grocery bill.  Again, Something told me to check the link she included.  It opened up to the contest page.  What do I see but this (seriously check it out):  http://www.mombloggersclub.com/page/green-works-summer-giveaway

I felt the blood drain out of my face.  I thought, there’s no way I won that.  I’m not THAT lucky.  So I read through the rules and saw that there was ONLY 1 WINNER.  That’s me!  There was no time frame stated as to when the winner had to reply.  I looked back at the email she sent me.  It was sent on July 1st, a full 9 days from when I replied.  I was sick.  I thought, OMG I didn’t check my Mom Bloggers Club inbox for over a week and I may have lost this awesome prize.  I frantically emailed her again and sent a DM.  I didn’t hear a reply that day.  Not that I should have expected that.  She’s a busy woman.  In desperation I sent a tweet out to her today.  She got back to me.  She said she was glad I replied because she was about to choose another winner TODAY!  No kidding.  So thank God for prompting me, thank God for the wonderful prize, and thank Mom Bloggers Club for not have a super small window to reply for prizes.
