Last Two Days of the Giveaway..

Update:
Wonderful response so far..
We are onto the last two days and there is still time to participate. If nothing, just leave a valid email id in the comment section without anything else and you can enter the raffle.
c'mon... don't lose out on $100 worth freebies. 

Has anyone caught the football/soccer fever yet? I am not so into the whole game, but it is hard to ignore it when the DH follows it so intensely. Since our great nation doesn't qualify in it, every body has to adopt a European or South American country and  get excited about their countries for the Copa Mundial/World Cup being held in South Africa. Though how can you watch all the games with the sound of vuvuzela is beyond me.
My interest doesn't usually go beyond my fledgling qualifications of a soccer mom cheering at the kid's Saturday games. Since I don't play the game, I can never understand why the kids can't just morph into a Ronaldo or a Messi and just kick instead of hovering indecisively around the ball...I told you, I am just a soccer mom who thinks its easy..

 
Some time back CSN Stores contacted me to do a giveaway of a git certificate to one lucky winner at my blog. Over time, I have made friends with a lot of bloggers who are obviously food obsessed but also met a lot of like minded foodies...my readers who try out the recipes here and take time to leave their valuable comments. For all the effort you all invested, this is an opportunity for me to say Thanks and give you all a chance at winning a gift certificate.

CSN stores is a series of stores under one company. They have a huge online inventory where they sell everything from Housewares, Home Decor, Bathroom vanities to Furniture. Its like an amazon for just Home products.

The winner of the giveaway gets a $100 gift certificate which can be used at any of the CSN Stores online.

Here are some of the things I found interesting on the site with a cursory look through. Go through the site to decide what you would like to buy if you get the $100 certificate.

Hand Stand Mixers...
This is one I wouldn't mind getting!!


Circulon Round Grill Pan..
Doubles as an excellent Dosa and crepe pan.

Pressure Cookers...
No more lugging it from India..think what you can fill in that space in the suitcase instead.:)


How about some cool mandoline chopper for the Kitchen...

Cuisinart Pure Indulgence 2 Qt. Frozen Yogurt-Sorbet & Ice Cream Maker - ICE-30BC

 Or even Le Creuset Stoneware.
