You are valued here at Value wIT and I want to you to know just how valuable you are. The goal is to increase the number of Value wITians who are notified by email when Value wIT has a new post. To the end Value wIT is offering every new friend a choice of one of the goodies listed below.
The rules are easy:
- Enter your email address in the box to the right (top of the page under the masthead) and click SUBSCRIBE. That was hard, huh?
- Respond to the pop-up box with the proper verification code.If you are familiar with the alphabet this shouldn't be that difficult.
- Check your inbox for a verification message from FeedBurner’s “confirmations@emailenfuego.com,” the service address that delivers email subscriptions for Value wIT. You will need to click a link listed in this message to activate your subscription. ALMOST DONE.
- Make a comment below about what motivates you to read Value wIT. Just me fishing for compliments.
- Email bitsyparker@mac.com with your mailing address and goody choice. All the goodies look great. This will be the most difficult part of this project.
Voila! A message will be delivered to your email if the Value wIT has produced new content on that day. No new content, no email for you.
The one caveat in this happening give-a-way is my pocketbook. When the bill gets to $500 I quit. That's the price I have determined your friendship is worth to me. So, essentially that means I can only afford 100 friends. Remember, you have to be a new friend. If you have doubts that you are already on the list, input your email address and the service will let me know if you are on the list.
The Goody Choices - which are all from Etsy stores:
Black Raspberry Vanilla Creamy Goats Milk Soap
Bath salts with Dead Sea salt, lavender essential oil and lavender buds.
Just in time for Valentine's Day. Five super cute little cards.
Peppermint Chocolate creamy Goats Milk Soap

Look at that! I was going to say skip a goodie for me as well - now you'll be able to afford 102 friends!!
I just found your blog today - and I'll be back - OFTEN! I love your writing, it's very personal - like reading a note from a friend (a FUNNY friend,a VERY funny friend).
The Olan Mills photos look WAY too much like ones I actually have...OK, I'm heading to the archives to read more - can't ever have too many laughs!!

Hell yes, I want the giveaway. Please send me those cute Valentine's Day cards. I read your column for the humor and well, the humor. Love your observations and agree with so much of what you say. Thanks for the energy you share!

You always, always provide me a laugh and even on the worst days you make me smile :)
Besides that you are one cool lady!

I am motivated to read value wit by the fact that your first name is bitsy. I mean, SERIOUSLY. Coolest name EVAH. I knew 4,000 people with the same name as me growing up. Bet you didn't!

I had not subscribed in the past because I lurk around every day to see if you are available to amuse me. But since you asked so nicely, I signed up! No goodie, please. I read cuz I so enjoy your style and your values and your wit! Oh, and you're always nice to me at parties!

Well, I've said it before and I'll say it again- you are hilarious and give Texas women a good name. Any chance I can forego the soap and cash in on the cellulite sessions you haven't used?

All signed up! Those V-Day cards are super cute but I really require no incentive. You know I love your writing.

There are some blogs that you find and you read them only once, others that you come across stay with you for the long haul. Yours is definitely in for the long haul! Very entertaining and great perspective!

I realize you were worried that we haven't visited....you're in our dreams, I mean, feeds. If you haven't given away all the vanilla raspberry soaps, I'll be needing it to wash off the bus smell. A great motivator. It's February already...are you still accepting comments here? Better late than never. Oh, I'll e-mail you, anyway. Been meaning to find out how you get in on all these reviews, anyway!
