I’m Tired of Waiting!

So comment on this post and get an entry to the contest – there are only 16 spots left…..9 were taken last week when I was busted with nothing to post….

What’s that you say? You didn’t know there was a contest? Well, well, well…let me tell you!

Gameboy and Games to pick from with adapter

It’s the contest to win one of the above pictured games, the game system AND a MadCatz adapter to play with a Gamecube or another Gameboy Advance SP. See the below picture for the connections possible…. :)

GBA Hooked up to Gamecube

You’d like to Win a Gameboy Advance SP wouldn’t you? All you have to do – I mean it – ALL you have to do is comment on this post and I’ll take the next 16 entries. Once the winner recieves their Gameboy and takes a picture I’ll post it here for all to see. The best part is that somebody is winning a game system!

You can see the original rules here. So you see, no hidden motives here, I’m not getting any link love for this, no reviews or mentions of my contest elsewhere…who’s gonna be the winner?

I’ll pull the winner over video – web cam permitting and that way you know there’s no funny business.

Remember: ANYONE can enter!

I’m tired of waiting. So come on, 16 places shouldn’t take long to fill up, in fact – I really hope it’s over today! I’ll post the winner the day after I get to 25 entries.

On a brief side note…I don’t know if you guys have noticed, but I’ve added a poll to the sidebar to gauge my reader demographic. Please take a second and click the button you’re in and submit your age group. I’m trying to narrow down a particular audience to target, so that we can better explore the world of financial confusion with more targeted information that actually helps you now and in the future.

Thanks – don’t forget to comment for an entry to Win a Gameboy Advance SP!

    I tried to get you some traffic (and entries) with my link to your contest post. Guess I didn’t send you much traffic. Even stumbled it for you.

    Still at under 25 entries. This is sad, so very very sad.

    I’ll try again…

    Maybe it’s too soon in readership numbers…

    Ah well, Dan directed me over. I’ve just started reading your blog, so I didn’t feel like I ought to enter…but since I got called out on it, here I am, lols! =)

    I woke up from rocking my kid to sleep, stumbled to the computer to check my Technorati stats (because I’m a stats whore) and to my disbelief, I see another blog linking back to mine. I thought I was dead, but no this was reality. Man, my blog should jump like 1,000,000 positions tonight… The least I can do is comment. If I wake up tomorrow and this was only a dream, I am going to be so bummed. :D

    That Dan! He rounded us all up in a nice little post and shamed us into commenting. LOL

    I am glad to be here on your blog, I always like to visit new places. I’ll be back soon :)

    Anyone can enter, the idea originally behind the contest was that I was freeing up space in my house…but the Gameboy is still here! Sitting on my desk, box beside it ready to go….only I don’t have enough entries to really call it fair…I thought 25 was a good fair number.

    Thanks Dan for the help and Joanne and Pete for entering!

    Good Luck, 14 spots left!

    dcrblogs sent me this way. I used to have a GBASP. Nice system it is. There is nothing better than Super Puzzle Fighter II.

    What a fun and information rich site! Here’s my comment. Dan’s site dcr blogs told me about the contest, so I came over to enter. Thanks for the invite and good luck to everyone!

    Hi, Sabrina!

    Hope I’m not too late. I didn’t know about the contest – or your site, for that matter – until dcr pinged me and got me moving.

    I just held a modest contest on my blog, so maybe karma will reward me!

    I was afraid this contest would drag on too long and I would have to pull it and try again another time…but thanks to DCR…I may not have to – thanks to everyone who’s stopped by and entered…I’ll be drawing a winner hopefully soon!

    Dan sent me over. This is a nice idea. The game would make an excellent gift for someone special. I’m in too :) (If there is still a space.)
