I was very excited last week, when someone from CSN Stores contacted me about doing a giveaway. If you’ve never heard of them, you need to take a look at their site. It’s a huge website that contains over 200 individual stores that sell everything from contemporary coffee tables to handbags and cookware.
Speaking of coffee tables, I am smitten with this one for my empty formal living room:
I’ve had this rug on my wish list for the last couple months, also for the formal living room:
Enough about me and what I want! The questions is: What would you put $65.00 towards? CSN Stores is giving one of my readers $65.00 towards the purchase of anything on their site! As the husband and I were browsing around, we found a couple more things.
We both really liked this cute little side table:
And with the holidays coming up, we thought something like this platter might come in handy:
The Rules:
Leave a comment on this blog post. You can either comment on what you would buy or you can just say something like, “Pick Me!”.
Only one entry per person, please.
The giveaway will end at the end of the day, central time, Monday, November 15th.
I will use Random.org to pick the winner.
I will notify the winner and the representative from CSN on Tuesday the 16th.
The winner will be emailed a $65.00 gift certificate code by CSN.
Please note that the gift certificate code will not cover international fees.
I have not been compensated in any way to do this giveaway.

I would love to win and use the gift certificate towards an area rug for my bare family room floor!
Posted by Andrea on November 11, 2010 at 6:36 am
Pick me! Lol!
Posted by Mary on November 11, 2010 at 7:29 am
I could do some damage with a gift certificate. Pick me!!
Posted by Stephanie Phillips on November 11, 2010 at 7:41 am
Pick me! I’ve been trying to find some every day dishes that will be both functional and stylish (and resist chipping!) for over a year. I’d use my $65 towards a new service for 12!

They have great stuff on their site. I always enjoy looking around. I would use the GC to get something for my new sunroom, so pick me! 🙂

No, No… Pick me! Pick me! Know what I mean, hint, hint, nudge, nudge. Ken

Oh, the freedom to buy whatever I want. I’d probably go with a giraffe. Assuming they sell those. If not, I suppose I’d settle for a table.

Posted by Kiana on November 11, 2010 at 9:01 am
Thanks for visiting my blog. It’s always nice to “see” you. 🙂
I would probably put the money towards one of their insulated dog houses. The idea of a frisky pup shut up with us in the house all winter is NOT a appealing one!
Posted by lou on November 11, 2010 at 9:06 am
I would put it toward anything unbreakable:)
Posted by Lesley Moore on November 11, 2010 at 9:07 am
Love the platter – never have one big enough for Thanksgiving. Really enjoying your blogs too…

The pet fountains look interesting.

I’m not sure what I would buy but it would be fun looking! Pick me! ; )
Posted by Mom on November 11, 2010 at 9:14 am
Did not say relatives are excluded! May the one who needs it most win.
That would not be me.
Love you,

Posted by Natalie on November 11, 2010 at 10:09 am
I would use the gift card towards my sons room, changing it around from a teen room to a young mans room..
Posted by 40daysof on November 11, 2010 at 10:13 am
Young man?!!! I refuse to think of him that way. Because then I have to think about how old that makes me. 😉
Posted by Kasi on November 11, 2010 at 10:16 am
Hmmmmmmm…. I need a new purse!!!! Let’s do this!
Posted by Brittany on November 11, 2010 at 10:20 am
Pick me! I would put it towards either new lamps or a new light for our dining room. I think the light in the dining room is the original one from when the house was built in the 70s. Definitely not a pretty look 🙂
Posted by Lynn Beumer on November 11, 2010 at 10:42 am
Oh, I love winning prizes. AND the decisions I would have to make !!!
Posted by Vonda on November 11, 2010 at 10:48 am
Pick Me! I think I may start Christmas shopping! (or new vanity lights for the bathroom if the DIY project on the old ones doesn’t work out).
Posted by Amy on November 11, 2010 at 10:50 am

Posted by Meredith K A on November 12, 2010 at 9:18 am
Pick me! I am still working on building up a supply of holiday decorations, after only 1.5 years of home ownership I still own barely anything festive, and it’s just not in the budget, so stuff like this is always a huge help!!

I would SO pick the best kitchen knife possible. The sharpest 7-71/2 inch blade heavy use one I could find.. no serrated edge either! I need one so bad, it is sad..
Posted by domestic diva on November 14, 2010 at 8:40 pm
I’d use it toward a guidecraft kitchen helper.

Whoo hoo! I love a giveaway! How cool is it that they contacted you! Are they watching you?! If I win, I have to use it towards a food processor. It is really pathetic that we don’t own one already. I have a tiny chopper that just don’t cut it! 😉
