So, we are set to reach 300 posts before the end of the year! I know that’s not that many posts for the almost 2 years now that the blog has existed, but what can I say, I’m a little busy, thanks!
But I’m pretty proud of this accomplishment and want to celebrate it! So we are having a giveaway!
“What is it?” you ask? Ok, so I haven’t really decided yet, but I think I’m planning on a fun little gift package of stuff we love, that we think others will enjoy as well. I promise that it will be good. And I’ll officially announce what it is on the 300th post!
“When will that be?” Well, we’ll see. It depends on if I keep up my regular posting, but I’m going to say pretty assuredly that it will be sometime between Christmas and New Years. So keep your eyes and blog readers on Making Me Cranky.
“How do you win?” Boy you imaginary blog readers sure do ask a lot of questions. So, here are the rules: You get an entry for commenting on this post and answering the question: What is your favorite thing about the holiday season?. You can get a second entry by emailing me at maggie@makingmecranky.com with a suggestion for a Fabulous Friday post. And you can get a third entry with a comment on that 300th post telling us what you love about Making Me Cranky, yup, I’m fishing for compliments and giving you plenty of time to think of one.

We also happen to be getting close to 500 comments. Wow, 300 posts and only 500 comments, you guys sure are lurkers, because while we don’t have a huge number of readers we could easily reach 500 comments in a week if you people commented every time you visited. Oh well, I don’t blame you. I am a lurker myself. I only comment regularly on one or two of the 102 blogs I read (I just checked my google reader for that number, yikes I read too many blogs).
So I want to celebrate my commenters and maybe turn some of you lurkers into commenters. So a special gift will go to whoever is that 500th comment. It must be a real comment though, no spam or comment just to comment. I mean you have to read the post and then make a real comment on it please. No other rules, just comment away on any post, existing or coming up, and whoever is number 500 gets a prize! And if that 500th comment appears on the 300th post well then I may have to give them something extra special.
I also haven’t decided on the prize for this one, but I promise it will also be a good one.
I’m not going to tell you how close we are to 500, but I will give you a hint: At our current rate, we won’t hit 500 until the end of January. So comment away, I’d love to see enough comments to be able to give the prizes away at the same time. Good Luck!
Getting to 300 & 500 – Giveaway Fun!
