Goooooood Monday morning! There’s nothing I like better than starting out the week with a nice cup of tea and giving things away. Ahhhhh.

Yesterday’s quickie contest for Bear Bills to be redeemed in Build-a-Bearville drew 163 responses, and I’ve got your two winners right here. They are commenters 137, Heather, and 8, Julie. Congratulations, ladies! Please check your email! You’ll each be receiving a card redeemable online for 10,000 Bear Bills and a virtual ride for your online character, plus the bonus $10 Donorschoose.org Giving Card to help benefit the classroom project of your choice. Sweet!

Many thanks to the generous folks at Build-a-Bear for donating the cards, and of course to everyone who took the time to play.

I have great news if you didn’t win this one, too—you’re going to have a chance to win something all week over at the Work It, Mom! Daily Deal. Yep, we’re doing it again; all week long, leaving a comment on that day’s deal will automatically enter you into a drawing for a $25 Amazon gift card. You should be reading over there, anyway, because I often post deals there that I don’t post here, but why wouldn’t you do it for a chance at free money? Here, let me help: Here’s today’s post. Go enter.

And I’ll have another contest here, today, later on, too. It is Monday, after all.
