Luck of the Irish Giveaway Hop Announces Grand Prize Sponsor

St. Patrick’s Day is a BIG holiday in my family and always has been. It became an even bigger holiday when my daughter was born on St. Patrick’s Day in 2008. I could not have asked for a better way to celebrate the day! I love to celebrate the holiday in a BIG way and this year, I’ve partnered with Deals from MS Do to celebrate with the Luck of the Irish Giveaway Hop. This will be my second event with Deals From MS Do at my side and the first one had over 140,000 entries. This is a great opportunity to gain new followers, increase traffic, and network with other bloggers. AND, we are pleased to announce that Zuuzs has signed on to sponsor a GRAND PRIZE Kindle Fire! zuuzs makes it easy to shop with all your favorite online stores, lets you share great deals and shopping insights with your friends and family without ever needing to leave the zuuzs website, and lets you all earn money on your purchases.

Here are the details of the event:

The event will begin at 12:01 AM March 1 and end at 11:59 PM on March 17 (all links not up by 10AM CST March 1 will be marked with NO GIVEAWAY and then deleted 12 PM CST). Exceptions will only be allowed in the event of natural disasters or carnage. Excuses that do not fall into that category will be evaluated at the sole discretion of the hosts.
