Finally, the winner + a special treat for everyone!!!

...TRACY!!!

BIG CONGRATS to her. Everyone please give her a round of applause. As this is also her first win on my blog for anything. :)

• And just so EVERYONE knows, all your answers were great. It was so hard to just pick one. This was definitely the hardest giveaway yet...meaning the last part-your memories of Halloween, why you love Halloween, and why you liked this giveaway & my blog. I really hate picking just one person...everyone's answer was great and it's so difficult to say "YOURS IS THE BEST." Because it's not like that. All are special in their own way. It's just that maybe one stands out and you're like "Wow, that's really thoughtful and sweet." Know what I mean?

• OH and I left Tracy's comment up (in the post below) so you can all see her great answer aka: memory of Halloween. Hope you don't mind Tracy. BUT because I love Halloween and everyone still wins something, this is something else I'm going to do. Just so you know Queen, your answer was just as great and I'm glad you shared your special story with me...and maybe my other followers would like to hear it (as it's a sweet story)...and of course I did what you said and deleted it. :( Fred wants to be talked about...I just know it! ^_^

• OK, so this is what's going to happen. Since I was very torn between Tracy & Queen's great memories of Halloween, I'm sending something to the Queen of Clearance-yes, Queen you are bound to always be the runner-up here, lol, (& I shall not reveal what's coming your way Queen, so anticipation, oh yessss!). AND since you all deserve something for putting your time, effort, and everything else into this LONG giveaway, if you'd like I would gladly send you a copy of Dead Man's Bones debut CD...as it is so awesome & so perfect to listen to around Halloween time. NOTE: This applies to everyone who particpated in the giveaway-meaning the peeps who did not get a post/part correct as well. :)
• So if you'd send me your home addy to my ghostgirl6@gmail.com address, I will gladly send you a copy. As I think the WORLD should love & embrace this beautiful and creepy album! So I really hope you'll enjoy it. ;)

• As for you Tracy, I need you to send me your home addy to my email too. (Queen I still have yours, just let me know if you want a copy of Dead Man's Bones.) Oh and Tracy, I had one more post planned (just in case) so you'll be getting a few extra treats in your box. :) OK, everyone happy!??! I'm happy because this was a lot of fun.
• Enjoy your day (as well as week) everyone and thanks so much for participating in my Halloween giveaway. Hope you had as much fun playing it as I did making it (along the way too!). Take care friends~

Winner of Part Six Giveaway + Update @ 6 am

(It's time for EVE to put her foot down!)

^_^

Soooo....

The winner of part six of my giveaway is...

Tracy!!!

With a guess of 7.25. Actual amount was 7.48. Good job!

OK, this giveaway has been fun and all but there has been too many people that guessed correctly...which means basically (and as you probably could have told by now) it is really hard to get ONE winner of out many posts/parts. So after much thought I have decided that I am going to ask the "winners" of each part to answer any of the questions below...or you can tell me something I haven't listed as well.

So the people included in this giveaway are:

Roxy, Queen, Sullivan, Cindy, and Tracy.

Now you can tell me anything. Examples: Why you love Halloween? Best Halloween memory? What this prize means to you? Why you liked this giveaway? Why you like my blog? (And yeah, flattery is nice but it won't get you everywhere, hint hint.) ^_^

Also, I'm going to moderate your answers/comments for this particular post so NO ONE sees what you have said. I will reveal the winner of this giveaway at approximately 3:00 PM (Eastern Time Zone) tomorrow...that should give you plenty of time. I will read the answers before that, then should come to my decision at around 3-ish or so. I can't tell you what I'm exactly looking for...but if it's from the heart, then know you are on the right path. And of course if I could give you all the winnings, I would but I'm just a lil' starving blogger like the rest of us. :P

• Please Note: If I get TOO anxious, I just might read your answer. So I might possibly write it down, digest it, and think about what you said. Which means your post to me, may never get seen by anyone else. I'll see how it goes...because of course I'm CURIOUS.

How could I not be!?!

Take care & best of luck to all of you!~

***UPDATE: Alright it's 6 am (I'm up early because soon I drive Mike into work), and so far I've read Sullivan's, Roxy's, and Queen's posts (don't worry ladies, they got deleted)...and they were all great. Goodness, you guys like to make this extremely HARD for me, don't you!??! You three put a lot of thought into your answer and I really appreciate that...and like I said before, no matter who wins, you are all so special (and WINNERS!) to me. ;)

OK, so all the pressure is on Tracy & Cindy now ^_^...if they choose to be a part of this, which you don't have to be of course.

OK, just wanted to say WONDERFUL responses & chat with you soon.~

Eve's Halloween Guessing Game Giveaway: Part 6

Hello and welcome to yet another part of my Halloween Giveaway. This is the Hot Topic (Halloween-ish) post/part. And YES you will win EVERYTHING pictured which includes: a Coraline bookmark, an eyeshadow kit, skull bandana, and some cute Hello Kitty pencils. This could very well be the LAST part of the giveaway...as there's a tie between Sullivan & Cindy at the moment. And if one of 'em gets it right, then the giveaway will end. BUT still remember that Roxy got one post correct and Queen also has one post correct. So anything goes.

• OK, so the rules for this one are very plain & simple: just guess the total cost of the items pictured. I won't include tax...it really doesn't matter much anyways I suppose. I should've never included it in to the giveaway...but live & learn, right?
• So, the winner of this part (or possibly the whole giveaway) will be announced sometime much later today (as it's 12:22 AM right now). And I'm giving you almost the entire day.....so you may want to think this one through.
• Thanks again for participating and enjoy the rest of your weekend.~

Winner of Part Five Giveaway is...

...Sullivan McPig!

• With a guess of 7.99. Total price was 8.99. Great guessing Sullivan. You know your undies...ha ha. Who would've known!?! ;)
• Well, there will not be another giveaway post tonight. I'm actually about to leave soon for my nephew's Halloween/B-Day Party. Thanks for playing my giveaway, and I hope you enjoy the rest of your night.~

Eve's Halloween Guessing Game Giveaway: Part 5

No, your eyes are not deceiving themselves, that is REALLY my underwear. But don't worry I haven't worn 'em yet. ;) So aren't they the coolest? I especially like the ones on the left-they have garters on 'em (so so cool) and lace...oooo. And the other pair glows in the dark, sweeeet! So as you may already know this giveaway is NOT TOO LATE to get in on. 3 people have one vote and 1 person has 2 votes...so anything can still happen. So how this part of the giveaway works...

• I just need you to guess the price of both pairs of panties-combined total, don't worry about sales tax this time. And you can't go over the total price of course. And for the hint: the black pair cost double the amount of the orange pair. Well, the orange pair is off by ONE CENT, but that's pretty much double to me. And sorry ladies, these won't be won in the overall giveaway prizepack. My main reason is whomever wins, I couldn't ever guess their size. I mean what if I offended someone by giving 'em a big ol' pair of underwear? LOL. But you know what I mean.

• Sooo, I will reveal the winner a bit later today. It's about 1:10 PM (Eastern Time)...so I'll give you to around 6 or 7 PM (so that's a decent amount of time I think). So if I only get one guess, that person will win. Because like I said before, I'm whipping out these giveaway parts like there's no tomorrow (for a reason...that is IF you read my previous post...which I hope you did or I'll be sad!). AND I just might do another part (of the longest giveaway ever) at the time I reveal the winner of Part 5. Depends. But it will be posted around the same time IF I decide to.

• Well, good luck guessing and the winner of this post will be revealed in a little while. Take care & Happy Sweetest Day too! Does this 'holiday' apply to the entire US, or is it just a weird Michigan holiday? Was never sure...
  

Winners of Part Three & Four Giveaways are...

...CINDY!!!

With a very good guess of 10.00.

I loved that these PJ bottoms were at the very cool & creepy price of 10.31. Get it? Of course you do, the price is the day of Halloween.

(And yes, Queen I go into Old Navy every now & then, these are from Old Navy.)

^_^

So I got done with the stuff I needed to early...much earlier than expected so since (I think) just about everyone guessed on the PJ ones, I decided to announce the winner. And now since I got 5 guesses in for the other post, I will announce the winner of that one too. And then I'll take a break from the giveaway posts until atleast tomorrow. I'm burnt out, are you burnt out? LOL.

OK, so the winner of the Part 4 of the giveaway is...

CINDY!!!

With a guess of 11.50.

Actual price was 11.75. And wow, Cindy you got two in a row. Can you keep it up? Because now it's Roxy-1, Sullivan-1, Queen-1, and Cindy-2. So is someone gonna tie Cindy? Or is Irish or Tracy going to win one next? OMG, I am going to run out of Halloween stuff to guess. But actually one of my posts has some non-Halloween stuff up for grabs. That will come either next post or the following. See how it goes.

Well, I hope you are all doing well and enjoying the start of your weekend. It's very cold here. Almost time to get out my big winter coat. Alright, until next time.~

Eve's Halloween Guessing Game Giveaway: Part 4

Hey there. Looks like I have some time to post because I'm up early before going out & doing what I need to do...so I decided to do Part 4 of the guessing giveaway. So how it'll go is when I get back home from 'taking care of business,' I will reveal BOTH winners of Part 3 & 4. Again, when exactly that will be, I'm not sure...more than likely not until late afternoon or possibly night time is my guess at this point. So here's some more stuff for you to guess on. This stuff is a mix from many stores so I don't have a receipt to use as reference (but I do remember how much I got each for-thank you sticky notes).

So here's some pics of it below...

Headband veil w/spider on it (isn't it great?), stickers, foam stickers, tissue (wrapping) paper w/pumpkins, skelly feet socks, bag of parachuters, and my favorite item-the skull & crossbones loaf pan. I loved that when I saw it. And it was so cheap, you wouldn't believe it! ;)

So what you will win includes: foam ghost stickers, the pumpkin tissue paper, and bunch of the orange & black parachters.

I don't know if this makes much difference or not but ALL of these items were regular priced. No sales...no clearance. And from several different stores including: Michaels, Walmart, Dollar Tree, and Target. Now don't go around searching for these items QUEEN, lol. Just wanted to throw that out there. ;) So please guess the total of these items including MI's sales tax, which is 6% per dollar. OK, enjoy and I'll be back...maybe sooner...maybe later.

^_^

Eve's Halloween Guessing Game Giveaway: Part 3

Hi again. Now for something a bit different. I would like you to guess the price on these pajama bottoms. No sales tax, just the price you think they are. And sorry, this item will not be one that is included in the giveaway prizepack. FYI: I have a a bit of a busy day tomorrow so I couldn't tell you when I'll post the winner of this part, or another part of the giveaway. It probably wouldn't be until the evening. But then again, things could change...I guess it depends on how my day goes. Sorry I can't give you a time, but I have something going on and I honestly have no clue how long it'll take.

Talk to you all later & best of luck guessing!~

Winner of Part Two Giveaway is...

...QUEEN OF CLEARANCE

with a guess of 5.38. Yes, Queen you know your Michaels items, haha. For future reference guessers (hint hint): I usually buy stuff either 1-on sale 2-on clearance...most the times that is. Just a lil' FYI. ;)

So that brings the 'score' to: Roxy 1, Sullivan 1, and now Queen 1.

Best of luck on Part Three. ^_^

Just so you know...

...there will be another giveaway post today. Couldn't tell you exactly when. And just because I want to keep you all in great suspense & (hopefully) curiosity, about the rules...well, they will be go along as I go along. Of course like I said before, the 2 main rules will never change-1) winner of the most posts will win a nice Halloween prizepack and 2) person closest to the exact total of the purchase, WINS! Those rules won't change...

...but as far as getting everything in the posts, that will not stay consistent. Sometimes you will get all...sometimes some...or one...or sometimes none. Sorry, I have stuff I'd like you guys to guess on but due to the price, I can't afford to send you everything I have you guess for. I think you'll understand anyways...just wanted to make sure that was clear. And I will do my best to point out what exactly you will be guessing in the post AND what exactly you will win from that particular post. OK, does that make sense? (You all say YES...;}

Take care & remember another giveaway post TODAY. Guess you'll have to check back. ^_^ I know I'm making it a bit tough...but I want to keep in interesting too. Hope you'll understand but again since you wonderful followers are so....wonderful, I think you won't mind. ;)

Eve's Halloween Guessing Game Giveaway: Part 2

A relatively small amount of items. As I make the rules, I can break them...sorry. :( But with this particular giveaway, you will only win one of the votives and one of the spools of ribbon (and that one isn't even pictured, oooo, surprise surprise). Good? Good! OK, so what you see here is 4 orange votive candles, one purple candle, and two spools of ribbon. Now it's your turn to guess the overall price, including 6% Michigan sales tax. AND this giveaway ends TONIGHT. Again, sorry but I gotta get moving faster on these posts. So you have until 9 pm (Eastern Time Zone) to place your guesses. Oki doki? OK, now start the guessing. Take care & happy guessing~

Winner of Part One Giveaway is...

...well, it's actually 2 people because I screwed up and I feel bad. I didn't say (or make clear) that there was 2 cards pictured. So Roxy guessed again (cuz I said it was ok) and went over even though her previous guess was pretty close (and didn't go over). BUT Sullivan guessed lower too. So this is a win for both Roxy & Sullivan. Don't worry peeps, it's o.k. Plus please know I will be altering the rules as I go along a bit too. Not the main rules though-like you can't go over the total or the winner of the giveaway is the person with the most correct answers. Those will be the consant RULES.

• But I will be doing some posts where I'll ask for just a price with NO sales tax, for example. I mean that's really not stretching it...so you kinda know what I mean now by "bending" the rules a bit. So CONGRATS to both winners...and post two will be coming very soon. So get your thinking caps on!!! Night~

Eve's Halloween Guessing Game Giveaway: Part 1

Would LOVE for a room in my house to look like that!

What is in this Hello Kitty candy basket?

Its....lots of good stuff!

OK, the picture above is your FIRST POST to guess on.

But first, some EVE talk and the directions.

Hi friends. I told you a lil' bit about my Halloween Guessing Game Giveaway before, and NOW I'm ready for the games to begin. Wooohoo!!! Sooo...this is the basic idea...

• I will show you one (or more) items and you guess the total price (including sales tax, and in MI it's 6% per dollar). Whomever guesses the closest to the total price, WINS. Now on to what the spooky person will win and the rest of the rules.
  

(Please read carefully)

• Well, first know that some of the things I will post will be a bit more pricey and some will be farily inexpensive (candy, lil' things). So in many cases if you guessed correctly on the post (for example this first post)...and go on to WIN the WHOLE GIVEAWAY (those rules below), then you will win every duplicate item that I have in the post.

In this very first post-you will win one of every duplicate item (besides the cards). BUT in some cases, like with some of my upcoming items for you to guess...that include clothing or items similar to that price range, more than likely those will not be part of the entire prizepack. I will let you know that THAT item(s) will not be part of the prize. I would like you to know everthing you could possibly be winning.

• So if you could understand that a bit in the paragraph above, the WINNER of my Halloween giveaway is the person who gets the most posts right. For example: if Cindy {twas the brillig} guesses 4 of the (let's say) 6 posts right, then she will be the winner of the whole giveaway. Now if there's a tie, I will do some type of tie breaker. AND I couldn't tell you how many posts I am going to do. I do have a good amount of items for you guys to guess prices on right now. So we'll see how it goes.

• THE FINE PRINT: This GIVEAWAY is open to all of my followers...and all the people who choose to become followers during the course of this giveaway as well. Of course guessing from the start gives YOU a much better advantage but if you miss a post, YOU CAN STILL PLAY ALONG. And that's pretty much how it's going to work. All I pretty much ask for in return is for you to take pics and send 'em to me if you are the winner of the entire giveaway. Cool?!? OK...
  

• So...If you have any questions/concerns, please feel free to ask on this post, or to email me at ghostgirl6@gmail.com. You will have from now (posting approx. at 9:00 am-eastern time zone) until tomorrow to guess on this post. Then, I will reveal who won the post for Part One of the giveaway. And maybe (this will never be known), I'll do another giveaway post. So that means you need to check my blog more often because I honestly don't know when the next giveaway post will be up.

I want to be able to give this prizepack to the winner before Halloween arrives. BUT this could possibly change, as I have to get my DAMNED II art pieces labeled, wrapped, and bring them down to the gallery in the next couple of weeks. (Not to mention try to get a crew of cool peeps to come & see the show and pick out my two outfits for both nights...well, I got to look professional, yet mysterious and all, haha.) So we'll see how it goes. And HALLOWEEN stuff is awesome year round, right!??!

• So, once again, basically there is only ONE WINNER for guessing the most amount of posts correctly. Winner of each post=person not going over on the total price of what I paid for the item(s).

OK, so I think that's all. Soo...Happy guessing to you all!

And always go with your gut instinct. I hear that's the best way to go and I believe in that very much also.

{Oh and this giveaway is part Halloween celebration...and also part 500th post celebration. Can you believe it? I sure can't! I will let you know when I hit the big 500...and it's coming up very soon...woooohooo.)

~Take care~
