Tell Me What’s On Your Holiday Wish List and…

by Missy Ward

And the winner is… @laurie_pooh!

My son Chase picked your name out of his Santa hat a few minutes ago!

Missy Claus is buying you your Rock Band 2 Bundle (XBOX 360). Send your address to me at missyward/at/gmail/dot/com

Every year, my family hits me with that age-old question… “What's on your Holiday Wish List this year?”

You see, here's the thing. Everything that I want (that doesn't cost a small-fortune), I buy for myself over the course of the year.

I lack patience. It's a flaw, I know. But, I've come to the realization that I'm not going to change, because I actually like this little imperfection that makes me, well.. me.

So, in keeping with our family tradition, I never send them a list and therefore the only things I get for the holidays are Gift Cards. Lots and lots of Gift Cards.

Right now I have a $250 Circuit City one sitting in front of me, that has gone unused from last Christmas, and I feel like playing Santa with it.

So here's the deal…

Go to CircuitCity.com and pick out something that you want for the holidays (max $250.00 with shipping). Come back here and make a comment on this post which includes the URL to the item you want and answer ONE of the following three questions:

What are you going to do with it?

Who are you going to give it to?

Why I should buy it for you.

On December 19th, my 2-year old son Chase, will randomly select a winner based on the comments received. That winner will get what they wished for and I will announce it here on my blog.

Good luck and happy shopping!

(Before you ask… No, I am not going to send you the gift card — I want to buy you a gift instead!)

Contest ends at 1:00pm EST on Friday, December 19th.

Full details on qualifying can be found below.

So now’s not the time to be quiet. Share your secret for a chance to win some great prizes!

In fact, I’ll start you off with a tip from me…

“Passion and Consistency. Create a website around something that you’re passionate about. Whether it be cooking, dining out, home repair, apparel, electronics – or whatever floats your boat. Creating content around a niche that you’re fanatical about becomes a labor of love and something that you’ll be able to be consistent with, instead of being a daily chore that you’ll begin to lose interest in. If you’re site becomes recognized as a good source in your particular niche, site visitors will come back for more.”

So that’s my tip – Now, what's the dope on your success?

Win A Year’s Worth of Cereal from Ted Murphy

by Missy Ward

Ted Murphy, CEO of Izea is at it again. He submerged himself in a bathtub full of cereal to launch a new promotion on Ted.me.

Ted's giving away 52 boxes of cereal to a lucky winner on his blog. On top of that, if he gets 500 comments on his post, he'll donate 52 boxes of cereal to a local food bank.

Here's where I come in. I've already adopted a Central Florida family for the holidays and am also sponsoring some silent auction items at another holiday party benefitting the Make-A-Wish Foundation. But that said, I'm always up for another good challenge that benefits my local community.

So, if Ted gets his 500 comments, I will match his 52 boxes of cereal and donate it to whatever local food bank he desires.

While I must admit that Ted's way of going about things is a little over the top at times, to quote a tag line in a Quaker Oatmeal (my favorite) commercial… “It’s a good thing to do and a tasty way to do it!”

So hop on over and post a little comment about your favorite cereal or how goofy Ted looks. Be a sport — It's for charity!

Missy Ward is on Vacation!

by Missy Ward

So Ad:tech NY is now over and a new day is dawning in America. Although I prefer not to shove my political beliefs down other people's throats, I would like to take a moment to say that I am utterly thrilled at the way things turned out. America, you look good in Blue today!

I'm still in NYC and am looking forward to the Mashable event this evening featuring Gary Vaynerchuk. Gary's sure to shake things up a bit and it will be a great send off for me as I head to Aruba on vacation tomorrow morning.

I'm a beach girl and I'm really looking forward to spending time walking on the coastline, hitting the water, fishing and enjoying the beautiful Aruba sunsets. These are the things that make me — well, me.

So while I head off to go be me, I'm not planning on forgetting you. After all, you're all part of me as well. So, how about I bring you back a gift from Aruba?

Just reply to this post and when I get back on the 17th, I'll mail you off your shot glass from Aruba, on me. 🙂

Take care and talk to you in a couple of weeks.
