I Shutdown ‘Keri’s Annual Christmas Extravaganza’

Dec 25 2013

I loved doing it, and loved how much I learned doing it. But, it’s a big deal, logistically and time wise, and when I sat down to get started this year, something stopped me.

I was like wait wait, what am I doing here… I don’t even really like Christmas, or contests … aside from the annual aspect, what do I even like here? Nothing. Done.

The annual part though, I’m going to morph into something, that part I love. I can’t wait to type “The 3rd Annual Lalala”.

I’ve always wanted to throw a massive party. And give away a car, like, how I get a car to test for a week, you would too.

RIP the blog tag, ‘Keri’s Christmas Extravaganza‘.

A Christmas Extravaganza Update

Mar 14 2013

Remember in December, when 2 people won the

2nd Annual Keri’s Christmas Extravaganza?

(warning: page is huge)

My favourite winner Glenn just sent me these pics of the prizes in action.

Here’s the Meduiar’s Headlight Restoration Kit.

Even a kid can use it.

That’s not a photo op; Glenn’s daughter really did buff a headlight. Good work, missy!

All photos were taken with a Samsung Galaxy. Thanks, TELUS!

I’ve known Glenn in real life forever, but until his ballot was drawn, I had zero clue he’s been reading my blog the whole time.

Thank you Glenn, the timing and sentiment of this was awesome. Might be typing this with misty eyes. If I wasn’t a ROBOT.

That’s the Business Year of 2012 Complete

Hope you had a good ending, too.

Mine is below, plus I moved a mountain, right down to the wire on Friday. I like to think I finished with a little flourish.

I love how the world collectively shuts down each year like this.

I had a big Friday morning deadline, stood up from my laptop at 2am, then went for a cruise with fellow Autonet-er Russ.

He’d decided in case the world really did end, he wanted to be out driving.

Watch; it’s an automatic, too:

Ha! I’ve been pulling all-nighters for 2 weeks now, and this was a great ending to that.

Photobombing will never get old. Hi Shawna!

5 years I’ve been blogging Brennen,
& this may be his best blonde yet #B

Go too: Brennen Demelo Studio – 416 301 1072 – 316 Adelaide street West

I don’t miss my white blonde hair, but it took many months to be able to say that. Fellow platinums – it’s a bit of a shock, when you transition down in tone.

The Extravaganza is complete! Both Prize Packs have been delivered to winners: Cara Eng, Toronto, and Glenn Morton, Kingston. Congratulations!

I didn’t mean for it to get so big, it just kept working – $3,200 in prizes. That’s more than some national franchises, my little blog.

Thanks again PR companies, it was great working together this year.

I was very quiet this weekend, in recovery mode, slept in late today.

My overly-dramatic letter opener.

Did paperwork, Life Admin, light manual labour and no-brainer chores; I can see the floor again.

Of course I shred.

This is my face.

Now back to being quiet, TTYT

Because of my blog, I get and do a lot of fun stuff, because people like you read it, and so I want to share and give back. Why do I need 4 phones.

Maybe it seems crazy that I’m giving away so many prizes, but it was a successful blog year, for sure my best yet. The prizes are: gifts I received, and items from PR companies I worked with during the year, who were also excited to have an Extravaganza.
