MANCHESTER LIFESTYLE BLOGGER STARTS CELEBRATING XMAS with DAY 1 of her XMAS PRIZEDRAW…
As we enter the Xmas Season, as well as preparing to celebrate Christmas, I’m also celebrating having exceeded 700 followers on my blog – YEE HAA!
It’s time I shared back some of the ‘happiness’ you’ve given to me over the course of my journey.
As Xmas is the season of ‘giving’ and as a BIG Thank you, to those who have joined me on my learning ‘blogging’ journey over the last 8 months, I’ve got a great prize coming up for 3 lucky people to win on Xmas Day!
I recently purchased the Marks &Spencer Beauty Xmas Advent Calendar and although I feel a bit like ‘Scrooge’ and want to hold onto all the goodies as they do look brilliant and I’d love to try some of the items out, I’m battling the temptation and having seen ‘the ghost of Xmas past’, I’m ‘READY TO GIVE with GRATITUDE!!’
From the 1st December to the 24th December, I’ll open one of the ‘hidden treasures’ in my calendar and post an Advent photo of the ‘gift’ each day.
If you’re interested in ‘winning’ a share of these 24 lovely presents and you’re a follower of my blog, please leave me a comment for inclusion in the XMAS DAY PRIZE DRAW!
A NEW YEAR ‘Goody Bag’ will then be posted out to 3 lucky ‘winners’!
This is a Fabulous Advent Calendar (No affiliation, gift or payment received!) and the contents of the advent calendar are worth a staggering £250.00!!!
I apologise to any ‘male’ followers who don’t normally wear makeup… as the gifts are makeup and beauty related products.. However, for the ‘wrinkly males’ if your anything like my hubby (don’t tell him I said so), he does occasionally ‘borrow’ my moisturiser, so maybe there is still something men may find useful among the contents and if not, you could impress a lady in your life with a gift instead and earn yourself some ‘brownie points’!
I’m not sure what the situation is re: postage so I may also have to limit the ‘prize draw’ to UK followers.. I’ll keep you updated on this….
Please feel free to share this post as any new genuine followers will also be included in the prize draw…
I really do appreciate the support and encouragement I’ve received over the last year from my ‘blogging friends’ and I’m looking forward to continuing our journeys together in 2017….
LET THE XMAS CELEBRATIONS BEGIN with a great ‘ADVENT PRIZE’ COUNTDOWN!
1ST DECEMBER 2016 … Oooo Lovely … Beautiful Hands for 2017!
I
XMAS COUNTDOWN HAS STARTED!!!
ENJOY THE CELEBRATION AND GET READY FOR DAY….

To be honest – I’d LOVE a chocolate one… I can’t have it though due to ‘diabetes’.. The M&S one is fab.. I’ve taken a sneaky peak and it’s got some lovely items… I’m going to be envious of the 3 winners of the Xmas Day draw (I wish I’d bought 2 now! haha)

A lovely way to give back to your followers. I’m in Australia, so that puts me out of the running, but I love the idea.
