Tech Tip for Blog Giveaways......

Click Here to Enter

 

In the above giveaway 18 bloggers, have teamed up to giveaway to a winner 1 item of your choice for each of their TPT stores. When I enter a giveaway I thought I share how I do it .....(you may already but this is for that 1 that doesn't) On one like this, you have to enter a link to the item of your choice, and then click enter on rafflecopter. Here's how I keep track

I copied the links that Blog Hoppin provided for each store that we had to go to in excel. Then I made at the bottom my "form" response for the comments....Each time I would go to the store I would insert the name into the the form by cutting (ctrl-x) it, then I  copied and pasted the whole form into the comment box on Blog Hoppin', (ctrl-home) to get me back up to the top, right click on store so it opens in a new tab,

then when I found the item I liked (omg was it hard so many great choices) I go back to my other tab with Blog Hoppin'.  I am still at the top of Blog Hoppin' so I hit (ctrl-end) to get back to my comment box, then I inserted the link into my already pasted in the comment box and of course I hit submit. Then I fought the stupid spam protection. Let me tell you it was hard for me to after 18 to resist typing I am not a robot you dumb thing. The new version with numbers leaves alot to be desired! Sigh....I know why we have them, but if your not a robot and still can't read it! OY......Hope this helps you! Good luck! Hurry this is a flash giveaway and the winner will be announced tonight at Midnight. (I'm not a part of it, just used it for demonstrative purposes)

Rachel over at Go Fourth! With Mrs. Owens, is hosting a Linky Party & (Freebie Alert)
All you have to do is tell everyone 10 things we should know about you...well here are my 10 things...


10. 10 years ago, I was not even thinking about a career in education, then my dad died...and my whole life changed.

9. I actually work at the grade school, my sisters, my mom and I attended many moons ago.(It's about 5 miles away from home )

8. I am very disorganized at home and at work, too many irons in the fire at once, but I am working on them both this summer.

7. I am a horrible cook, if it can't be made in the microwave, it's so not worth the fire department visit.

6. I spend 16 hours (or more) on the computer and never tire of it.

5. I am not a morning person....

4. I am a $ store, spot addict...

3. My cat and dog are my children, but have 5 nieces and 1 nephew (exact number~exact genders in my generation on dad's side)

2. Have I mentioned that my happy place is at a Tim McGraw concert or even listening to his music......:)

1. I am VERY superstitious and into 6 degrees of separation, kwinky dinks....
