You need to write this down somewhere! This is the third month that I’ve been consistent with my monthly “Just Because” giveaway. This month, as always, you can enter to win a $25 giftcard giveaway.
I hope all of you had a very Merry Christmas and I’m very hopeful that 2021 will be SO much better than 2020. Although, I don’t really make New Year’s resolutions. Striving to be more consistent is a goal.
We’ve had a few nights where it has been EXTREMELY cold (for Arkansas). It may even snow a.t the end of this week. Do you need something warm to drink that is SO fun? Then, the white chocolate hot cocoa bombs recipe is for you. I’m going to try to get a couple more variations on a hot cocoa bomb this week.
We don’t buy a lot of presents for each other at Christmas. We really never have. I did buy Michael a white pair of Converse low tops. Can you guess what else I bought him? A Yellowstone “take them to the train station” t-shirt. Paramount had on the entire 3 series of Yellowstone this weekend. So, I binge-watched it again.
WHILE YOU ARE VISITING
While you are visiting Sonya’s Happenings… if you are into couponing and you think about it, there are coupons on the sidebar and at the top of the page to print from coupons dot com, Fetch or Ibotta (they reimburse you in PayPal). I’d love it if you’d check them out!
Any and all the advertising that you click on and visit can help me bring you more giveaways to enter. That is my main goal, I just want to bring more to you. I remember when I was able to enter more giveaways than I enter now. I LOVED it.
Please know that I APPRECIATE each and every one of you! When it comes to my giveaways, please remember, if there is something you do not want to do while entering, as in follow, tweet, or share, please don’t. That is PURELY up to you and that is in ALL of my drawings. I give you all of these options because not everyone has the same social media sites. All you need is one entry to win, please remember that.
LET’S GET ON WITH THE GIVEAWAY!
I don’t do “Just Because Giveaways” because of a giveaway hop or a required prize. This is solely from me and solely a decision from me. This “Just Because” $25 giftcard giveaway gives the winner their choice of giftcards. It must be a giftcard that I can send electronically and with US funds only, PayPal and Amazon are still fine.
My giveaways are still open worldwide, but I don’t know how the giftcard will convert to your currency. It also must not be something I have access to, meaning I don’t have to join a website. The giveaway is open worldwide to everyone as long as you have an account for one of the gift card options and will end 1-26-21. The winner must reply to the winning e-mail within 48 hours or I will have to choose a new winner. It is a rafflecopter giveaway, so please give the form time to load.
Good luck to you all!
Let’s Win
