The originally winner, Casey, had already won a Not-so-Scary Halloween bundle on another blog, so I’ve drawn a new winner… #10 Jackee!
Congratulations Jackee, I’ll be sending you an email shortly!
As stated when entering the contest, she will have 48 hours to respond before I use random.org to pick a new winner.
I think if you enter on another blog & that there is a prize for each blog ~not just 1 prizes amoung them all~that it’s another giveaway at another blog & your entry should count.
So your saying:
if someone enters at 25 other blogs & wins 1 than their entries into yours are disqualified?
If someone does the work…
visits the sponser…
follows, subscribes, facebooks ect………….
and wins a “thingy” at another blogs…….
then is drawn for yours too……
all their hard work & loyal following goes out the window?
In this case, the prize here, was the exact same as what the original winner, Casey, had won an a different blog.
$50 bundle of Halloween downloads from You Can Make This, which includes:
Fancy Filled Tutu with Bonus 40 Tutu “Recipes”
Pumpkin Polly Patterns
Paper Piecing Project: Pumpkin Patch Pillow
Frayed Applique: Too Cute to Spook!
Little Miss Spider Applique Patterns
How to Applique the Easy Way
Hocus Pocus Patterns
Just a Little Something for a Happy Halloween Table Runner
Casey didn’t need to win on two blogs, she would have received a duplicate email from You Can Make This with the exact tutorials she already had received. And I didn’t disqualify her for winning elsewhere, when I contacted her she asked me to draw a new winner.
Copied and pasted from her email…
Thank you so much, Christy! I was lucky enough to win this prize on another site. (What are the odds?!?) Please choose another winner so they can enjoy these downloads, too. I’ve already started on my first filled tutu!
I understand when someone turns down a prize duplicate.
So many times I have seen this is not the case!
Say someone own a Soy Candle form xyz blog & then won it on ABC Blog.
Then ABC Blog says: we are going to draw another winner because you won on another blog.
Just makes my head spin.
I know I spend alot of time on each blog.
I visit the sponsors, leave honest & sincere comments, follow & jump thur all the hoops.
I believe if you do this at each blog ……….then each contest should be consider a different enity.
There are some blogs that do that all the time……..
redraw because that person won the prize somewhere esle.
Just makes me feel like I am wasting my time entering multi blogs for the same prize.
Wow, that doesn’t seem fair at all! I don’t care who wins, if they’ve won the same prize before, or what they do with the prize after they win it… as long as they follow the entry requirements it’s all good.
