Cyber Monday Giveaway

Girls, it's cyber Monday - the best day of the year to find fabulous deals online.  And I've got one to share.

Two summers ago I met Hillary at P31's She Speaks conference and instantly liked her. She makes me laugh, plus her kids are so cute I could smooch their cheeks for hours - but she might feel the need to call the cops if I did that.  I missed seeing her at She Speaks this year because she was busy birthing a beautiful baby girl and launching a new business.

She has combined her love of cute gifts and personalized items to create Mint Julep Monograms -- an online monogrammed boutique. She offers original gift ideas for babies, teachers, girlfriends, bosses or family members.  What could be better than giving a custom, personalized gift this Christmas? 

How about giving it at little or no cost to you?

 

Mint Julep Monograms is offering 15% off your entire purchase, plus free shipping today.  Just use the code CYBER15. But wait, there's more ... Hillary agreed to give away a $30 shopping credit to one of my readers this week! So let me tell you how to enter, and gain multiple chances to win!

For your first entry, follow this link to visit Mint Julep Monograms and comment here telling me which item is your favorite. For additional entries, do one or more of these and leave another comment for each:


• Tweet, blog and/or Facebook about this giveaway

• Follow me on twitter (@ RachelOlsen)

• Follow Hillary on twitter (@theothermama)

• Follow my blog - you can use the button in my sidebar

• Follow Hillary's blog where she sometimes talks shop, sometimes post pics of her adorable kids, and sometimes writes funny posts.

• Purchase a copy of my book It's No Secret: Revealing Divine Truths Every Woman Should Know for your sister, teacher, co-worker, women's ministry director, or friend. (You could tuck it in a personalized tote from Mint Julep's for a sure-to-be appreciated gift!) Or just buy a copy for yourself - I'll be blogging on it in the new year.

If you're not from the southern half of the United States, you might not understand the deep-seated desire many southern gals possess to monogram everything from tote bags and towels, to aprons and charm bracelets. I can't explain it; I can only confirm it's true.
And I'm so glad Hillary stands ready to help us gals out with cute stuff.

Whether or not you're from the South, I think every woman would enjoy giving or receiving a swanky, colorful, personalized gift. So enter to win - I'll draw and post the winner on Wednesday.

Thankful for the kindness of friends like Hillary.

  10. Rachel, I also wanted to let you know that I purchased your book and received it a few weeks ago. It has been such a blessing! It's like having a great gal pal sitting right beside me, giving me wonderful advice. I read the entire book in two days and now am going back through it and using it for my daily time with God. Thank you so much for writing such a great book.

  24. Thank you, Lord, for placing Your Word into the hearts of Your Faithful. And Thank You, Lord, for gifting them with the gift of ministering to others!

    A friend Blessed my life the day he suggested one of your devotions. I now receive Proverbs 31's Daily Devotions. Guess What?! God continues to Bless what I am doing!
