And the Holiday Deals Gift Certificate Winner is... · Nov 26, 12:03 PM

I have to say that this 12 Days of Holiday Deals promotion was one of the most fun promos I’ve done in a long time! Getting comments from you guys, letting me know what you do and don’t like has just been great. With the slow economy, I’m glad to know I was able to provide a few sales and help out with your Christmas shopping here and there, even if my sales were still far less than I had expected.

Don’t get me wrong, I would love for my jewelry to be flying off the website. However, I do understand that it is a luxury item. I also understand that with the turn of the economy, many of us have little money to be spread far and wide for gifts. (J and I, for example, are limiting our Christmas shopping with a cash budget, otherwise we just go overboard and can’t stop.) So, regardless, I’m glad that I was able to help out!

I do want to do more promotions like this (I’m really not lying when I say this was a lot of fun!) So if you have any ideas on what you’d like to see me do, let me know. I’m all ears!

For those of you waiting to see who the winners are, you’ll be glad to know that your odds were just fantastic for winning (at least 1 in 30)! So, with the help of Random.org and without further ado, the $25 gift certificate winner is:

Congratulations, Betty! Make sure to contact me with information on how to get your gift certificate!

If you placed an order during the 12 Days promotion and asked me to hold it until the end, I’ll be working on getting those packaged up for you this weekend.
