100 Readers Win $20 Build-A-Bear Vouchers!!
Soooo….I had so many readers enter the $20 Build-A-Bear Workshop giveaway that I just couldn’t possibly choose only 25. With that being said, the 100 (yes, one hundred!) randomly selected winners are below along with their comments regarding how they would use this voucher or with whom it would be shared. Please note that you will receive an email from Bryn at bryn@hip2save(dot)com shortly with further instructions.
THE 100 GIVEAWAY WINNERS ARE….
(1) Jennifer P. “My sister is getting a divorce after 9 years of marriage. She has two kiddos who are 6 and 9 and they are caught up in the nasty separation. My niece is especially sensitive and I see her happiness dwindling each time I see her. I’d would take her and my nephew to build-a-bear as a pick me up! Maybe their new little friend could give them some comfort when I’m not around to do it!”
(2) Rose P. “I’d love to use this for my daughter, she has not experienced the build a bear workshop and since she was Princess Jasmine for Halloween, I think the cute Princess Jasmine costume would be icing on the cake 🙂 or let her decide as there’s so much to choose from.”
(3) Tonya B. “I would take my two year old son to make one.”
(4) Patricia Z. “I would use it for Christmas shopping, my sister loves Build-a-bear and has a collection of the bears. And I have a collection of the dogs and other animals.”
