Welcome to this week’s edition of Aloha Friday.
In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.
If you’d like to participate, just post your own question on your blog and leave your link below. Don’t forget to visit the other participants! It’s a great way to make new bloggy friends!
My question is:
Do you enter blog giveaways and have you ever won something?

I love entering blog giveaways and I have won a few things. My most exciting wins always came from that one big bloggy carnival and since she stopped hosting it, none have lived up to it
I love entering BLOG giveaways! I’ve won probably a dozen or so in about 3 months!

I love giveaways but I mainly enter book giveaways. I’ve won quite a few books.
.-= Vicki´s last blog ..Friday Flash 55 =-.
I have entered giveaways a couple of times, and have not won. Last week I got an email that my comment was picked and won a giveaway. I was so excited since I didn’t even realize I had entered a contest. Once everything is complete I will create a blog post all about it. Aloha and take care.
I enjoy entering blog giveaways! I’ve been lucky enough to win twice…..so far!

I use to always enter giveaways, but it seems impossible to find the time to anymore. I do on occasion and yes, I have won some really cool things!
.-= Michelle´s last blog ..Aloha Friday =-.
All the time! My biggest win was a carseat.

.-= Michelle´s last blog ..Aloha Friday Question of the Week =-.
I don’t usually enter blog giveaways, because it’s a bit of a hassle, keeping up with what I need to do with entries. But the one that I DID enter, I won!!! It was sooo exciting! And so now, I will actually enter a giveaway when the prize is right!
I do enter giveaways and I have won a few, mostly over at Momdot
.-= Tena´s last blog ..Aloha Friday: Fall TV =-.
I used to enter them all the time, but I’ve slowed down a lot since I got more serious with my own blog. Every once in a while I win something, which is nice.
.-= Angela´s last blog ..It’s so hot =-.
I was on a giveaway-entering rampage until about a month ago. I realized I was spending a little too much time on it…so I decided that my last entry would be for an amazing Hoover (I love vacuums). I didn’t end up winning, but before that I won baby clothes from Happy Green Bee, a diaper bag from Baby Star, and some other awesome stuff. Pretty fun!
.-= Mika´s last blog ..In Praise of the Bwun =-.
Unfortunately i can’t go for giveaways.. because most of them are only in US territory and since I’m living in Germany…oh well, that sucks for me, right?:P
But i once entered a costumed designed blog button.. and guess what??? i won!!!:) so yeah that would be me here!
Aloha Everyone!

.-= Drahdrah´s last blog ..Aloha Friday =-.
Yes!! I love to enter giveaways and have one many. The biggest was a really great ride on toy that I just gave to my daughter form her birthday last week.($100). As much as I love entering, I also love to host. Right now I have several going on!
.-= pam´s last blog ..Aloha! =-.
I just started entering occasional giveaways again. enjoy entering but my lucky random number doesn’t come up very often. LOL!!

I love entering giveaways and yes I have won a few things.
.-= JamericanSpice´s last blog ..Aloha Friday: Memory keeper =-.
I try to avoid blogs that are all about the giveaways. It is not the reason I decided to blog. I have won a couple things from two different blogs. They do occasional giveaways and I ended up a winner.
.-= Nina´s last blog ..Playing Hooky =-.
I have entered multiple blog giveaways and yes I’ve won a few. I also host a lot of giveaways too, I actually got a few going on now…

I have won a few things this year. I have to slow down the entries since the kiddos’ school year has started, but I still enter at least one each day.
I still have a few to share on my blog, but here’s a list of what I’ve won so far: http://psalm37v4.blogspot.com/2009/08/summer-winnings.html
Have a great day!

.-= Dad of Divas´s last blog ..Project 365 (282/365) – Her Chariot Awaits! =-.
I love giveaways and have entered a fair amount of blog giveaways. I have won two of them, which is awesome because I feel I am a very unlucky person when it comes to winning stuff.
I am hosting a blog giveaway at this time so head on over to http://scentsygiveaways.blogspot.com/ and be sure to enter
.-= Kirsten´s last blog ..Scentsy Monthly Sample Club =-.
I enter, occasionally, if it’s a site I usually frequent. I’d feel funny going somewhere just to enter a give-away, but this is a way to attract new followers! I did win a really cool, recycled bag once at Greenmamma, one of my favorite sites.
I’ve run give-aways and have had a lot of fun with it. Actually, I think it’s time for another one!
I used to enter them more but since I do my own giveaways I don’t enter AS MUCH, but I still do if it’s something I really want! If I had more time I would enter more!
.-= Dee´s last blog ..Aloha Friday =-.
Hmm…I do enter, if it’s something that I want to have and the giveaway doesn’t involve 9 million steps to enter. I’ve won several times…and it’s always books.
.-= Aunt LoLo´s last blog ..Fitness/Aloha Friday =-.
I do enter blog giveaways. I usually spend some time each morning after my kids go to school, looking around online for blog giveaways. I have been very lucky, this year I’ve won – Free ice cream for a year, a Rubbermaid food container set, a magazine subscription, and several gift cards.
Happy Friday

I used to enter a several of the them a week just for fun. Now with my own blog I don’t have much time to enter but if I see something I really like I will. I have won quite a few things, my biggest being a wonderful Plan Toys Kitchen Set worth $950. That was amazing! I jumped up and down around my house. I was so excited you would have thought I won a car or something.

I enter blog giveaways and appreciate the opportunity to do so. I’ve won several great prizes in the last 10 months. This is the first month I’ve kept track of the ones I’ve entered and it’s over 175 in August so far- and I enter a small percentage of those out there.
I love entering blog giveaways and have won a few things. The biggest thing this year was an iPod Touch. I also got some t-shirts, a book and a few smaller things.
Also, I put the wrong link in my first linky entry if you could delete it. Right now my bad link is #47 and the good link is #48. Sorry about that.

I do enter blog giveaways! I think it is so fun to win things. I have one a handful of things that I entered for.
I also do giveaways now for the same reason. I loved the feeling of winning something and then it coming in the mail. Now, I can do the same for other people!
.-= Stefany´s last blog ..WAT-AAH! Review and Giveaway! =-.
