I love the Sponsors of BNOTP! In fact, I'm convinced BNOTP has the best Sponsors in all of Blogland. I know they have the best products and services because I visit their shops and positively gawk at all the wonderful treasures I find.
Scavenger Hunt:
In celebration of the BNOTP Sponsors, I'm hosting a fun Scavenger Hunt with two prizes! If you have half as much fun on the hunt as I did in putting it together, you're going to have a blast!
The Prizes:
For Bloggers or Shop Owners:
1st Prize: The winner will have their blog button or ad, whichever they prefer, hosted on the BNOTP sidebar (with a link to their store) for the month of September. If the ad or button is 125 x 125 in size, it will go where the "Your Ad Here" button is currently located on the sidebar, below the Sponsors.
If the blog button or ad is not 125 x 125, I will try to accommodate by placing it lower down on the BNOTP sidebar. If the button is larger than 150 x 150, I may need to decrease the size to place it on the sidebar. No animated or flashing ads or buttons, please.
Please note: The ad or button will need to be approved prior to placement on the sidebar. I don't anticipate any problems, but must reserve the right to approve the ad/button prior to placement.
The winner will also receive:
2nd Prize: The winner will also receive a $25 gift certificate good toward a purchase(s) with any BNOTP Sponsor of their choosing.
Not a Blogger or Shop Owner? Instead of having your button or ad hosted at BNOTP, you'll receive a Gift Certificate for $50 good at any BNOTP Sponsor's online store.
Scavenger Hunt Rules:
Read each clue/question below (there are 18) and visit the Sponsors on the BNOTP sidebar to find the correct answers. If several folks answer all 18 questions correctly, which could happen, those names will go into a random drawing. (Read below how you'll submit your answers. Hint: Don't leave them on this post.)
There are no "trick" questions. All answers are easily available at the Sponsor's site which is reachable via their ad on the BNOTP sidebar.
Improve your chances of winning:
If you are one of the entrants whose answers are all correct and you have posted about this Scavenger Hunt on your Blog OR on Facebook with a link back to the Scavenger Hunt, your name will be entered a second time in the drawing.
Scavenger hunt ends Friday, August 12th at midnight.
How to submit your answers for the Scavenger Hunt:
1. Important: Please be sure to number your answers to match the numbers beside the questions below.
2. E-mail your answers to betweennapsontheporchatgmaildotcom by midnight, Friday, August 12th with the Subject: Scavenger Hunt. If you forget to put Scavenger Hunt in the subject line of your e-mail, your entry could be lost in my Inbox. All entries must be e-mailed to the e-mail address above to ensure they are received.
3. Don't forget to mention in your e-mail if you blogged about the Scavenger Hunt or posted about it on Facebook so, provided your answers are correct, I can include your name twice in the drawing.
To be fair, I won't be able to accept entries submitted after midnight, August 12th.
Note: Please don't leave your answers to the Scavenger Hunt in a comment on this post. I love your comments, so feel free to leave one telling me how you liked the scavenger hunt. But please don't leave your answers in your comment because I won't be able to publish it for obvious reasons. :)
HINT: Don't wait too long to complete the Scavenger Hunt because a few of these items are one-of-a-kind and may sell out...in which case they may come off the Sponsors site. Hopefully the Sponsors can leave the items on the site until Friday with SOLD notated beside that item.
If an item sells and I'm notified by the Sponsor, I'll edit this post to notate it has sold and I'll add a new item as a replacement for the hunt. If you've already submitted your answers, this will not effect you. The new item will just be for those who haven't yet submitted their answers for the hunt.
One last hint: In the scavenger hunt, there are two questions for each Sponsor.
This is the first time I've held a scavenger hunt, so please be patient. If you enjoy this, we'll do it again sometime.
Most of all, Have fun!
