New Edition of... Giveaways Across the Blogosphere (of interest to homeschoolers)


Welcome to The Homeschooling Blog!
I've become quite the giveaway groupie lately, meaning I follow closely blogs who frequently offer goodies to random readers. Why? Because I'm broke and love to get things in the mail! teehee If I find a giveaway offering gift cards all the sweeter... who doesn't love to shop on someone else's dime?

Since March when all my giveaway silliness began, I've earned somewhere in the neighborhood of $300 in gift cards, cash, and products I needed anyway! Add that to the nearly $20 I've earned from using Swagbucks as my search engine of choice, and I've been able to purchase my son a few essentials for his new gluten free, dairy free diet. Talk about expensive! Not only does his food cost more than ours, but I had to buy him his own can opener, skillet, and cooking utensils to avoid the risk of cross contamination in the kitchen. One little grain of gluten could set us back

We still have more yet to buy, so I'll be continuing to hunt down those awesome bloggers who are eager to increase blog traffic via giveaways and those who've been approached by sponsors wishing to get the word out about a great product or service. The web can be such a sweet sweet place! 

In the spirit of giving, I've done a bit of digging and found a handful of giveaways I imagine might be of interest to the homeschooling community:

Homeschooling Planner Giveaway
Educating Layton is giving one lucky winner a free homeschooling planner, valued at $20. The winner will be announced tomorrow... Friday, May 6th... so enter now! All you have to do is leave her a comment and an email addy, should your name be randomly drawn. :)

The Mystery of History Volume III Special Pkg
Homeschool Giveaways and Freebies is offering this great history package from Bright Ideas Press, retailed at $110. Once again... enter NOW! Winner will be drawn this Saturday, May 7th.


$25 Hearts at Home Gift Certificate (to their online store)
Winner will be drawn from Facebook comments on May 9th!

JCPenny $25 Gift Card
Ok... so not exclusively homeschool, but this giveaway is being offered by a homeschooler and who couldn't use $25 to put towards some clothes for the kids, or a pair of much needed shoes for you? This giveaway is being offered my Molding Minds Homeschool who will randomly choose their winner on May 20th.

ABCmouse.com Early Learning Academy 3 Boys and a Dog is offering a free membership to the ABCmouse.com early learning site, with a retail value of $95.40. This giveaway ends May 17th.

That should keep you busy for awhile. :) I'll post more giveaways soon, as I find them across the blogsphere! If you'd like to share a homeschooling giveaway on my blog, please let me know via email (see my contact information). I also welcome the opportunity to host giveaways, should you have a product or service of interest to homeschoolers.

Blessings!

If you've been curious about the Principle Approach or just want to know more about America's Christian History & Government, now is a good time to find out. The Pilgrim Institute is hosting a blog giveaway!
http://pilgriminstitute.org/blog/ is the web address:
Or you can google Pilgrim Institute to get to their site and then blog to participate. You'll need a Facebook account to participate BUT, if you leave a comment with the question you'd ask Mrs. Smith if you could, she will count those, too!
Value of $50!
Pass it along...
