ANNOUNCEMENTS: PENNY PINCHING DIVA REVIEW & GIVEAWAY SITE {applications closed}
I am excited to announce that I have opened up the Penny Pinching Diva Review & Giveaway site. I love posting reviews and hosting giveaways, but I noticed that it was taking over my website and not everyone who came to Penny Pinching Diva was interested in winning prizes or reading about products. That is understandable, but I didn’t want to take away from the people who liked that aspect of my site.
My solution?
To create a separate part of Penny Pinching Diva for just the reviews and giveaways. There will still be a select few giveaways hosted on the main site, but for the most part all of the reviews and giveaways will happen at the Penny Pinching Diva Review & Giveaway site.
I currently have a giveaway going for a nursing bra from Bravado Designs. There will also be several more giveaways posted throughout the rest of the week to celebrate the launch of this new site. So keep checking the review site often throughout the week for some really neat prizes to be given away.
Reviewers wanted!
With the new review and giveaway site I have been inundated with requests from companies to have their products reviewed, and given away, on my website. I don’t have time enough to do all of the reviews and giveaways, so I am looking for 2-3 other women who would like to join the Penny Pinching Diva family and help me out with these reviews. If you are interested please leave the following information in the comments:
- Your name.
- Your age.
- Your email address.
- Your state of residence. (Reviewing positions are only open to US residents.)
- If you have children:
- How many children.
- Their age and sex.
- Your website URL. (If applicable.)
- The types of products you would be interested in reviewing.
- Links to 1-2 of your best reviews.
- Why you would like to review products for Penny Pinching Diva.
Please leave all of the requested information. I will be using the comments to contact only serious inquiries. I look forward to getting back to those of you who are interested.
