~FREE Rug Giveaway – ENDED~

June30

Sorry, this contest already has a winner!

Like this rug? I do!

Believe it or not, it could be yours! The fine folks at CSNrugs have generously offered to give away a rug to one lucky Econobusters.com reader. I chose THIS rug, thinking it will match a variety of decor. I also like the fact that it is an outdoor rug and will look great in any doorway, porch or deck. While you’re admiring the specs on this beauty, you might find another area rug you just can’t live without!

So, how do you win the area rug above? We will use a random number generator to pick a winner from the number of comments in this post. You can leave up to two comments, but they must contain the following:

1) Share what you like best about Econobusters.com or link to your favorite feature or post in your comment.

2) Share the above information on your blog, post about the giveaway, and come back and post the link to your blog post.

To be completely clear, you have the option to leave either one or two posts. Leave one, if you just want to make a comment right here on the site, expressing what you most like about Econobusters. Do that regardless! If you then choose to share that comment in a post on your own blog and let others know of the giveaway, come back and leave a link to your post (that will be comment number two).

On July 8, we will announce the lucky rug winner! The friendly folks at CSNrugs will ship the rug directly to the winner. Be sure and leave an email or some form of contact info in your comments.

Unfortunately, we will ONLY be able to approve comments that fall within the contest guidelines for this post, since the winner will be pulled based on the number of comments.

Enjoy and thank you to CSNrugs!

Note: Those affiliated with Econobusters or The Old Schoolhouse Magazine are ineligible. Sorry!

My absolutely favorite part of Molly’s blog is the freebies on Friday. I have found some of the greatest stuff on there! I also enjoy seeing what other people do to turn junk into something useful. That is not my gift, but I love seeing what others do.

I enjoy reading econobusters to find new ways to be wise and save money. I have used the free menu-planning e-book that I received when I signed up for econobusters MANY times. I love the homemade baby wipes. They are so much better than store bought. And the recipes in that e-book are awesome, and affordable too.

I’m loving the freebies! I love that I can find all the types of things I’m interested in in one place. . . the search for free stuff is done for me!

The name explains itself……ECONO(MY)BUSTERS! The links to how to get FREE things are great and to hope to look as organized as Molly herself is an encouragement!!!!! Besides, who can’t use an area rug to help decorate a room at an ECONO(MY)BUSTERS price?!?!

Love to read the tips and menu planning has really helped me get my act together.

I know being an at home mom and sacrificing a lot to do that, is tough. But, knowing that there are many mom’s (and dad’s) out there in the same boat that I am in is encouraging. The freebies are obviously so GREAT & the price for them is even greater when you only have one income!! And I also enjoy the organizing ideas, and different tips from Molly! Thank you so much for all that you do!!
On July 3rd, 2009 at 12:19 pm 112 Lillian Says:
Molly Rocks! So many ideas in so many different areas! I’m still working on getting organized and economized, but Molly has me started. Now, you can’t get more frugal than free!

The thing I like best is the practicality of the advice and info. Not pie in the sky kind of stuff, but really helpful things. I don’t have time for dreamin’, so I want rubber meets the road advice (how’s that for some figurative language in a comment?).

Thanks!

My favorite post:
http://www.econobusters.com/?cat=29

It’s about making your own buttermilk EASY, cheap and natural. My mom loves buttermilk but is always running out. I keep trying to tell her to just make her own using your method. I am printing it out for her and I bought her a nice glass jug to make it in. Thanks.

PS… I love that rug and would use it on a deck. How great that you can use it outdoors!

To be honest this is the first time I have ever had a chance to look at this..but by the sounds of the comments, it looks like a great place to see how to be a good steward with the things we have been given…and in this day and age…that is needful!

Thanks!

Love the rug!

I love the freebies on different topics. I save all the links to sites with freebies to use later when we study those topics. It sure saves me time when I need pages or activities on a certain subject later.

Yesterday we were discussing meal planning on Facebook. So, I have posted a link to Econobusters on my Facebook, as well as told them about the Menu Planning Ebook.

I like all the money and TIME saving tips! Thanks for all the great tips!

I love your website! I am a garage sale junkie myself (inherited the trait from my mom who goes with me every weekend!) and love to find a bargain. We just built a new front and back porch and I’d love to have this rug for my entryway there. How pretty! Thanks

What a sweet and fun site! Saving money doesn’t have to be dreary-thankyou for all of your fun info!

I love all of the menu and meal planning tips, helps, and ideas!

I love that rug! I had a similar one but it was ruined by a houseful of cats and I was soooo depressed!

I love how the freebies give me ideas what to do with my kids! I Have a growing file of ideas that make our homeschool creative and fun! I am not a garage saler – but i do peruse Craig’s List if I am looking for something specific – and I have sold a number of things and made a little cash!

Beautiful Rug!

Well, I love getting your e-mails, but it seems I got this one too late for the rug contest. The e-mail is dated July 10. Oh well!
I love to look at anything that has to do with meal planning.
Thanks for the hard work you put into this.

It is nice to know that others are looking to share and save money and still live the “good life” like me. It is great to see such a large group working to achieve the same goal.

I just love all the prudent living that is taught and admonished.
I really enjoy the new recipes to try also. FREEZER COOKING who doesn’t like it!!! Thank You so much!

My favorite thing is Freebie Fridays! It is full of great ideas to keep the kiddos talking about what’s going on and activities to do together! I am a work from home, homeschool mom and would love to spruce things up-doesn’t happen often on a limited budget! Thanks for the opportunity to check out more from cns rugs.

I saw your article in TOS and decided to come check out your site. I loved your “cheap” summer vacation ideas in that article. It made me remember the summers of my childhood and how much I loved them. I promptly got a sheet and helped my 3 and 4 year old make a tent in the yard. The 22 month old loved running in and out playing peak a boo.

Can’t wait to explore some more.

This site is great! We have a large family–nine– supported by one customer service job. Needless to say, we are always looking for opportunities to save on the things we need. Thanks!

I love the whole site. I too am a homeschool mother/baragin hunter and love garage saleing most every weekend and go to several farmer’s markets to get the fresh local meats and produce every week. I love to read about all your great finds and meals. Thanks for a great site.
PS the rug would be a great addition to my boys sensory room (converted basement garage). both of them are Sensory seekers and we needed the space to give the a safe enviroment to do it in. HSMOM22boys

Oh my gosh! I love the wonderful ideas to save money! I have couponed and pinched pennies my entire adult life so far (a couple of decades), so I am ALWAYS ready to hear more new and different ideas. Thanks so much and huge blessings!!

Wow, love the rug, and it would look so good on my porch. I’ve been looking for a new rug for my front porch. I just discovered econobusters this week and I am spending a lot of time on this site (too much – if I’m completely honest). I already bought the August digest and now I need to get off the computer and start “doing”.
