Back To School Giveaway Rules

Kelly Phillips ErbSeptember 8, 2009May 19, 2020

It’s back to school giveaway time!

I have a slew of great prizes to give away – and here’s how it works. Over the next few days, I’ll be posting back to school related stories, tax advice and strategies. At the same time, I’ll be posting queries that are widely not tax related but are school related – stuff like “tell me about your first day of school.” There are no right or wrong answers to those queries (okay, there are some right or wrong answers, read on).

    When I post a giveaway query – which could happen any time of day or night – you’ll have a set time frame to post your comments. The time frame will be clearly noted in each giveaway post.

    Post your response in the comments section of the post within the time frame (you’re welcome to post outside of the time frame, too, you just won’t be considered for the giveaway). It can be as long or as short as you want. Please don’t include any personally identifying information that you don’t want made public (your AGI, address, etc.).

    Enter as many times as you like – but you must post a different story or comment each time. Linkbacks on their own, while appreciated, don’t count. And spam clearly doesn’t count.

    My normal comment policy applies (you can read it here). I have standards, you know.

    You must leave a valid email address (it will not be made public) so that I can contact you if you are a winner.

    I will randomly select a winner from all of the qualified entries for each giveaway post. I’ll let you know if you’re a winner.

    If there’s no winner within the time frame, I will withdraw the prize and use it again. Cause I can.

    Due to shipping considerations, US and Canada mailing addresses only (sorry!).

Ooh, one more thing. There are never, ever any paid endorsements on my site. Evah. All of the giveaway prizes are either paid for by me (gulp) or are donated by vendors. For those vendors who have graciously donated prizes, I am devoting a little space to describing the prize – a photo, a blurb, a link. I can’t promise that I’ve reviewed, used or even heard of all of the products that I’m giving away. I do encourage you, however, to check out the products and draw your own conclusions.

Okay, got it? It’s easy peasy. Have fun… and keep an eye out!

    My favorite teacher was a nun who taught me in seventh and eighth grade. She treated me with respect, was intelligent, fair, and I learned a lot from her.

    My favorite teacher is Chris Harvey. He is an attorney and a member of the faculty at a local law school. He dedicates alot of his time teaching and inspiring wanna-be tax and estate planning attorneys to be both competent and compassionate tax professionals. In a world where many people are capable of teaching complicated subject matter, Chris stands out as both a good technical teacher as well as a real people person…not an easy combination to find in academia.

    Hi taxgirl!

    My favorite outfit for school right now is comfortable jeans, and layer dressing. A tank underneath a cool jean shirt with a cute little leather jacket to top it off. I still am wearing sandals to show off the toe jewelry! When we cut out in the p.m. I can layer-off to catch some rays!
