September 2024 YOUR Way Giveaway

Happy September Giveaway Little Peanuts. My August went too dang fast! If you’re new here I hope you will join us often. To my most awesome, amazing followers who have stuck with me for years, THANK YOU! I’m so happy to see you again. The first part of my $50 giveaway post is always a recap of the previous month. So, if this bores you feel free to scroll to the end. The Giveaway Tools widget is below. YES! I said Giveaway Tools. It’s back. Ahhhh you didn’t have to stand and applaud. BUT, thank you, thank you, thank you. At the end of August I was huggin’ on my kids and Alice and I just felt so good. I truly hate living so far away, EXCEPT because we only see each other twice a year I do get a lot more attention. AND more hugs. (It’s WHAT I TELL myself! Let me live the dream okay??)

Now for the REAL reason you are here!!

Giveaway Time!

This Giveaway spiel is the exact same as last month, the month before and the month before that! The year before and well, you get the idea. I am truly thankful and feel blessed that you continually stop by.

The Rules

A little of the blah blah blah stuff: This giveaway is open worldwide for PayPal, Venmo, and Amazon. Any GC that you think would work worldwide, I’m willing to try. This giveaway is $50 US.

This is a giveaway hosted by me alone.

I NEVER ask for anything except where to send your prize. My email is Co****@******************ne.com I have found that saying congratulations in the subject line causes emails to go to spam. So, I will usually say. HEY it’s Connie. Guess WHAT? Or something similar. I hope you will come back often, stay around for a while, look at more than one page, it really helps me. Of course, any extra clicks on advertisements is always appreciated. Purchasing through my blog does not cost you any additional money!! There are tons Of Ways to Enter The $50 Your Way Giveaway!! Comments!! I LOVE COMMENTS and SHARING!! Hint hint!! You also get extra entries for sharing.

Every once and awhile I may add a new entry so be sure to double-check occasionally. Those entries may pop up at any time during the month. Usually in the form of a comment on a certain post.

GOOD LUCK!!! Don’t tell the others but I sure hope YOU win!!

August’s Winner is Maria G. Congratulations!

I’m Refreshing My Blog (and Exorcising Some Digital Ghosts)

Updating old blog content is like digital archaeology—except I’ve unearthed a full-on resident spirit: The Ghost of Peanut Butter and Whine. This digital poltergeist has been causing absolute chaos behind the scenes. If things look a little haunted around here, here is the proof:
  • The Vanishing Act: The ghost keeps deleting my best images and video tutorials, leaving behind sad, empty boxes.
  • The Link Graveyard: It’s been sneakily stripping away my trusted brand partners and replacing them with sketchy “AI Crypto” links.
  • Font Sabotage: Apparently trapped in 2001, it keeps reverting my clean layout back to “Geocities-era” antique fonts.

My 2026 Blog Refresh Plan

To banish these spirits and keep my traffic climbing, I’m launching a step-by-step exorcism plan:
  1. Exorcise the 404s: Running a broken link checker to track down every dead end and missing image.
  2. Modernize Recommendations: Swapping out outdated products for my absolute 2026 essentials.
  3. SEO Deep Clean: Refreshing metadata and strategically placing focus keywords.

Stick Around Please!

Don’t let this be a “one and done” visit. While I’m cleaning house and banishing spirits, check out these (very much alive) links: Winner Winner Chicken Dinner: Check out the sidebar for my current giveaway. I promise this one is fully alive, kicking, and ghost-free! Earn Cash: Some things never go out of style. Rakuten still pays you to shop, and in this economy, who is turning down free money? Hey, while you are here you could shop through my link on Amazon, or Walmart.
