Contests held by Me:

Win One of Four Beanies!
This contest is REOPENED for the time being. In the event that to few people join, it will be closed again until a new contest is posted, and I would hate to have to do that.

Four lucky people will be the winners of a Random Beanie! (I have to many extras and want to give some away). This will be a surprise beanie babie. They are all mint in smoke-free, and ready to be shipped. Oh yeah, the contest is also free...of course.

To be eligible, you must be at least 18 years or younger (Sorry adults, I want to give the kids all the chances this time). Other than that, the only thing you will need to supply me with is your date of birth (day, month, and year), your email addy, the contest entry, and your name (first name only if you prefer).

The Contest Itself???

All you need to do is to tell me in 1-2 paragraphs why you collect beanies, when you started, why you started, the first beanie you got, your favorite beanie you have, and your most expensive beanie.

All participants have the same chance at winning! Everyone who follows the instructions completely will be considered. After I have at least 15 entries (which hopefully won't be long), I will randomly draw 5 names from the contestants. I will email these people promptly, and send the beanie within 2 days. :)

Good luck to all. Email your entries to: hyperian@ix.netcom.com
Please be sure to use "Contest" as the subject of your email so I am sure to see it amongst the mass amount of email I receive daily.
