MEGA EASTER GIVEAWAY!!! Win FREE STUFF!

Ok so I've been inspired by all the amazing giveaways in the crafty blogosphere and decided to go shopping and make my own valuable giveaway for one lucky winner!

Lucky for you all, I found some pretty great stuff discounted but the estimated internet value of all this stuff is roughly $75 USD!!

One of the great things I found is this WONDERFUL Jun Planning (the Japanese Co. makers of the pricey and collectible Pullip and Dal dolls) Angel Dal named AMY which can currently be found only on Ebay and Amazon books beginning at $15 and from Japanese Toy distributors for $20 - $30 USD.

It may seem like a 'little' girl basket but uh, I'm a pretty big girl and I was sure to prepare a basket I would LOVE to win! And that's not all - I also found some other great stuff, so scroll down check it all out and see the list of items included in the basket and HOW to win it!

My First Easter GIVEAWAY!!!detail shot of GIVEAWAY basket!

From Jun Planning comes this sweet new offering: the poseable, portable Angel Dal! Brown-eyed Amy sports a big red bow in her black hair to match her cute cotton black-and-red dress. Her head turns, she's jointed at the shoulders and hips, and at 14.5cm tall (that's almost 5 3/4 inches), she's the perfect size to carry along!

OMG! I LOVE IT! I especially love the Hello Kitty biscuits! I had my sister bring some from home when she came for a visit last month. She brought 10 and I just finished the last one a couple of days ago. My ones were called Yan Yan, also a type of Japanese snack. They are quite similar. Eeeek they are my absolute favourite!! They dont have any here in Birmingham so it would be great if I could get my hands on those goodies! hehe

Rina, Don't worry about your blog - All you have to do is comment here on every post I write from today (which you did already) until April fourth - On April Fourth BEFORE 9pm (our time) leave a comment on the most recent post with a number - and why you hope you win this basket. Gregg and I will roll the bingo cage and pull a number and hope its close to the one you picked.

Ummm I'm kind of in love with this give away as you well know I have a 30 year obsession with all things pink, pretty and especially Hello Kitty. Cuteness and super generous!!

March 13, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterTai

Alright, I know I probably don't qualify and don't quite know what I would do with all things pink, pretty and hello kitty but...I will say I enjoyed the blog today on this rainiest of days. thanks amarettogirl for brightening the gloom, always,...

March 13, 2010 | Unregistered Commenterstainboy

WOW! What a generous giveaway indeed! I have 'Twitted' it as I have lots of friends that could be interested and wanted to pass this great news along :)

Good luck with your giveaway!

March 14, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterPigwidget

wow, i'd love to win this. i love hello kitty!!
but i'm not sure i'm eligible with all these rules. i'll actually be away from internetland starting march 30th!! and only limited weekly (one hour) internet for four months.

March 14, 2010 | Unregistered Commenterfloreta

Floreta, I read your blog and I think a Buddhist retreat is worth more than this basket- so go and enjoy! and know that I will have other giveaways in the future, that will be easier to follow. Good luck on your trip and enjoy!

You have certainly taken a great deal of thought into the selection of goodies. I can see you in all of the nick nacks and patty wacks which will be an extra treat for the winner. I am not surprised at your thoughtfulness or the detail, it is you through and through. How do I become a subsriber to your blog...I am quite the technology challenged individual. Anyhoo, looking forward to your posts. ;D
