I have quite a few unclaimed prizes to giveaway and they need to go to someone that reads my blog. I have a garage full of donations as I’m still looking for a charity that will work with me. It has to be just the right fit. Anyways, let’s have some fun:
Here is the list of prizes:

Open Comments – Comment as many times as you want, right after each other, in between, I’m not picky. I just need to find a winner. Topic Idea, what’s a good charity you like? That takes “in-kind” donations, STUFF! But that’s just an idea, we can talk about whatever you want to.
You can tweet too if you feel inspired enough to do so.

Hi Pixie. Thanks. AHh didn’t expect to see my name how cute.
My sister does volunteer data entry at ReTails in Raleigh, NC – it’s a thrift store whose proceeds go to an animal shelter! They do good business too. And have a half-price day last Sunday of the month!
Does anyone have big weekend plans? Nothing much here. Doing taxes tonight and a party for some kids my wife’s cousin just adopted.

Don’t forget that domestic violence shelters can always use personal items for women and children, including diapers, sanitary products, hand sanitizer, lotion, and socks.
I like to help people we know or hear about through friends with clothing or other items that are needed. Not a charity per se, but a good use for donations.
That is good to know Christina. I like to give things that help people who need it like domestic violence.
I used to volunteer for the Gleaners who harvested the last of the crops at local farms for the local food pantry. I don’t do it anymore because I have two small kiddos
We have a local thrift store charity. It’s awesome, they accept donations for toys, clothing, book etc, that they then sell in the thrift store super cheap. They are run entirely by volunteers, and all monies, less operational expenses, are given back to the community. It’s really an awesome place. i always feel good about shopping, and/or donating stuff there.
Yes, Battered Persons Shelters can use most anything. Many of those women & kids come with just the clothes on their backs.
I like to give to people in person rather than thrift shops… some shops take too big of a cut of the “free” money from donated items.
Yeah its great to support women leaving abusive situations.
It is always too bad when people don’t claim their prizes. I wonder if they could have used the little pick-me-up for the day.
me too owen’s mom. I prefer to donate to organizations who will give the items to people in need not sell them.
Our favorite charity is St Margarets house, it is a day shelter for moms and their children. They can shower and get a hot meal and have somewhere warm to hang out!
It always seems so odd when people don’t claim their awesome prizes!
We also love giving directly to families or through our church to help families. It’s a little easier to know the donation is going to a good cause.
How fun–I want to win!!

THANKS for the giveaway!
I love to donate my things to Goodwill or Rescued Treasures. We have also donated to Every Woman’s Place, a shelter for battered women and children. My daughter had a fund raiser for them a couple of months ago and we also took a bunch of things like personal care items and formula over there. Thanks so much for the great giveaway, these are great prizes and I would love to win!

mmmm Sara Lee, now I am hungry!
Well back from doing the food giveaway. You know I really enjoy doing it. The people who come are most usually nice (some can be irritating and demanding) but everyone who volunteers has a great time!
I donate a lot of clothes to goodwill

I don’t have potty-training aged kids, so if I win the package, could you pick another winner for those books?! Not sure if it is you or someone else who will be shipping the prizes
I think it depends on the stuff. I like to give to the Women’s Shelter here. I also give stuff to the Burned Out Families ran by our volunteer fire de.
I know a lot of churches accept donations to give to the community
I wonder if I ever entered any of these giveaways that were unclaimed
I usually just donate on freecycle. You can give to anyone for free, or ask for anything for free. I’ve been blessed to give and recieve many things this way.
I’d be P.O.ed if I missed a winning email or something lol
I can’t believe these prizes weren’t claimed. My daughters would love the Webkinz

I have 6 kids, ages ranging from 1-15. I think there is something for everyone of them in this giveaway!
ohhh I like the potty books, Not looking forward to training the baby in a year or so!
I tried to win our 3 1/2 year old a Webkinz Jr before with no luck
I always wanted that Wii game, too
I ran a food drive once, best feeling in the world to help people in need
Those Sarah Lee coupons are looking good right now
My 2 year old nephew would love the potty book
I agree with previous poster, freecycle is a great website
I agree with The Gosfam, churches are also a good place to donate. I’ve never known one to charge for items that were given, unless they are using it for a church garage sale.
Shoot the 3 1/2 year old heard me mention the webkinz jr to her sister and now she wants one for her bday…i hope i win lol
I especially want the Winter Games!
All the prizes look amazing.
Oooh Sarah Lee coupons…I love coupons!
