I had gourmet salt as part of my gift and it turned out the winner was in Italy and Italy doesn't allow salt imports. In fact, I had to rethink a good portion of my gift and the whole thing (plus shipping) ended up being far more expensive than I expected. This year, I hope to offer up something that won't have any country restrictions and be lightweight and easy to ship as well. (BTW, US bloggers can check the USPS website for foreign shipping restrictions before deciding what to offer.)MizDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10143579988879218142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12044784.post-1163540748264246172006-11-14T13:45:00.000-08:002006-11-14T13:45:00.000-08:00Wow, I didn't know you all did this last winter.

This is such a great concept.<BR/><BR/>I'll try to think up a prize I can offer on my site or at least line up for some raffle tix! <BR/><BR/>Sam's comments on the prize were really helpful.

Something worth less than $10 for example, probably will not get many takers.<BR/><BR/>Participants in my geographical region - west coast usa - if you can manage a 400x267 picture as well with your entry I would be one happy bunny. And if you want to email the entry (with pictures) to me early, as early as possible before the launch, then that would really help me to be able to work on my roundup post in advance.<BR/><BR/>thank you all s kindly.Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07081680210434938456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12044784.post-1163524654132382442006-11-14T09:17:00.000-08:002006-11-14T09:17:00.000-08:00I love the idea, and thanks for letting us know ea...I love the idea, and thanks for letting us know early.
