Ok, I’ve drawn three prizes this week: two prizes of the LEGO Star Wars games and one pair of Ginsy wedges. This is pretty exciting, huh?
I’ll start with the two Star Wars winners. They are…
#16, which is Jeff Burns! The winner of the second copy of Star Wars is…
#3, which is Fiona@ohgorgeousbaby!
Lastly, the winner of the Ginsy wedges is….
#6, Alvina Singh!
Congratulations to the three of you, I’ll be emailing you very soon!
I hope you’re all in the mood for another giveaway, because this one is for you, not your family! I’ve been asked to pick out some shoes for this giveaway from Westfield’s online store. I couldn’t resist these Mollini Ginsy wedges. I used to have a couple of pairs of Mollini shoes when I was single and living in Sydney, so these brought back some sweet memories for me. I also hoped you guys would love something to make you feel a little special, since this motherhood gig isn’t always that glam, is it? These ultra-feminine wedges are valued at $99.95.
The entry process is pretty simple:
First two actions are mandatory
- Go look at the shoes then leave a comment telling me what you’d wear them with.
- Sign up to Hear Mum Roar’s email updates.
Optional entries (one extra entry per action)
- Subscribe to the RSS feed
- Follow Hear Mum Roar on Twitter
- Tweet this giveaway.
This giveaway will be drawn on April 7th, 2011. Open to Australians only.
Best of luck everyone!
Also, Westfield has just announced a new contest on Facebook this week. It’ll be the nation’s biggest ever runway show to celebrate the launch of Westfield.com.au, which is Australia’s first one-stop online shopping mall. There will be a fashion extravaganza with 100 models on the runway. Thirty of these models will be Westfield shoppers! If you’d like to have a crack at being one of these models, you can upload a photo of yourself. Get your friends to vote, and the top 10 entrants for each state will be shortlisted. The ultimate winners will be chosen by a panel of judges, and Melissa Hoyer will be the special guest at the event.
And yes, this was the giveaway I started right before the blog crashed. Some may notice that the prize has changed due to availability. My apologies.
Did you enter the A Little Bit of Cheek Giveaway ?
Brace yourselves, the winner is….
…Number 29, which is Melanie W! Congratulations, I’ll email you soon and I hope you enjoy your prize.
Do you have any kids with a rocker attitude? Would you love to win some rock style clothing for your child? You’ve come to the right place.
A Little Bit of Cheek is an Aussie online store that sells rocker-style clothing for your wild child. They stock clothing, gifts and accessories for boys and girls, from babies right through to teens.
What I love about this shop, is that it’s always great to find fashion-forward clothes for the 8-14 year old girls that are still quite modest, and don’t sexualise children. That’s a problem I constantly face when I’m shopping for my daughter’s clothes. There are plenty of clothes here that appeal to all three of my children, especially my rock-obsessed son! The wonderful news is that one lucky Aussie reader will be winning either a Tommy Rocket or Two Belle item of their choice! (Must be an item currently in stock)
If you’d like to give your kid some attitude for a change (let’s face it, it’s usually the other way around!), here’s how you can enter:
First entry (both actions mandatory):
- Browse A Little Bit of Cheek then come back to tell me in the comment section which Tommy Rocket or Two Belle item you would choose if you win.
- Sign up for email updates from Hear Mum Roar. If you already are signed up, that’s fine. Please note: some entrants are skipping this step, and sadly missing out. Email updates are different to an RSS feed subscription. It’s more like a specially written newsletter than a feed.
Optional entries (one extra entry per action):
- Follow Hear Mum Roar on twitter.
- Subscribe to Hear Mum Roar’s RSS feed.
- Tweet this giveaway.
- Follow A Little Bit of Cheek on twitter.
If you have extra entries, please mention in the comments box below what you did, so I can check. Thanks!
This giveaway will be drawn on the 13th of February, 2011 (via random.org), and is open to Australians only. Best of luck!
I’m sure you’re all dying to know who won this gorgeous mum organiser.
The winner is….
Number #53, which is Becky!
Congratulations Becky, I’ll contact you soon to get this excellent prize to you.
Thanks so much to everyone who entered. In an hour or less, I’ll be posting my next giveaway, so make sure you check it out.
Are you feeling organised for school, yet? Maybe your kids have gone back already, or if you’re in NSW like me, today’s the big day. I spent all of yesterday, madly running around, making sure everything was ready for my daughter’s first day back at school. Talk about stressful!
To help make life much easier, Inner B is giving one lucky reader the Mum Organiser, in fushia pink.
I’ve actually had a look over this gorgeous diary, and I’m so impressed. It costs $44.95, and can be easily customised according to your family life. You can store your appointments, to do list, birthdays and anniversaries. It has a unique format which allows you to plan all of your family’s activities. It has a section for you to write in all the important things, such as details for your children’s dentist, local pharmacy, GP, local hospital, and whatever else you need regularly.
Inner B always makes sure to remember mum too, though. The Mum Organiser therefore also has a personal well being contacts section for you to keep your physio, hair dresser, massage therapist, and all those other contacts that make our lives more manageable.
Then, it has a household contact information page, for pretty much everything; local council, your accountant, electrician, gas, water, internet providers, and so on. As if that weren’t enough, there’s space for your entertaining contacts, your brilliant ideas (come on, we’re mothers! We have ‘em all the time!), things you want to do and places to visit, your dilemmas, goals, health and fitness ideas, favourite websites and passwords, must read books, must see movies, must listen to music, favourite restaurants, retail stores you like, items borrowed and lent, phew! (This is reminding me of that ‘I’ve been everywhere, man’ song!)
And then, there’s family medical information, current immunisation schedule, dates to remember, (eg, check fire extinguishers, torch batteries, all that practical stuff we all get caught out on), kids’ favourite activities and it even has holiday and party planning sections, with checklists and all. Bloody hell. Pretty much all it doesn’t do is wipe your butt for you!
What I also love about this organiser is that it looks so cool. It comes in four different colours: fushia (shown here), butter, lime green and the most popular colour of them all, turquoise Tiffany Blue. You can also buy refills for it every year too.
So, here’s what you have to do if you want to win this baby:
First entry (both actions mandatory):
- Go to Inner B and tell us which Inner B product would help you to get organised the most, in the comment section.
- Sign up for email updates from Hear Mum Roar. If you already are signed up, that’s fine. And yes, I do check!
Optional entries (one extra entry per action):
- Follow Hear Mum Roar on twitter.
- Subscribe to Hear Mum Roar’s RSS feed.
- Tweet this giveaway.
- Follow Inner B on twitter.
If you have extra entries, please mention in the comments box below what you did, so I can check. Thanks!
The lucky winner will be drawn on Sunday, the 6th of February, 2011 and is open to Australians only.
Good luck, people!
Update:
I ended up deciding to buy some goodies from Inner-B for myself. Since Diminishing Lucy was interested in seeing what the Tiffany blue mum organiser looks like, I thought I’d share the photos of my purchases here, as the Tiffany blue was my favourite colour, too. I also bought the completely AWESOME meal planner. It’s magnetic and fits really well on the fridge. Each meal square is a cute little magnetic tile. The kids have been going stir crazy choosing meals, because they love sticking the pieces on. Valerie was kind enough to send me the planner notepads (meal planner and daily planner) just to be nice. I’ve got to say, I’m very impressed. I’m not the most organised person in the world, and all this stuff has been a godsend.

It’s that time. Time to announce the winner of the Hear Mum Roar/Mooo first birthday giveaway!
It’s…..
ClaireyH!!
Congratulations, you’ve won a $50 Mooo voucher (excluding postage) to spend on something utterly cute!
Thanks so much for helping me to celebrate one year at Hear Mum Roar. Thanks very much to Mooo for their generosity too.
I’ll be emailing you very soon, Clairey.
Well, Hear Mum Roar’s first birthday, that is. I’m surprised at how quickly time has flown. How much has changed since I first started connecting with you!
I’ve really had a blast creating this blog, getting to know fantastic people, and the opportunities I’ve had as a result.
I very much doubt though, that this blog would be anything special without such fabulous readers! As anyone who reads this knows, I’m kind of big on the reader love thing.
So, as my way of thanking you, my readers for all of your support in the past year, I have a little giveaway. The good people at Mooo were kind enough to send a special something from their beautiful store for me to try out.
I chose a cute personalised journal with dinosaurs on the cover for Missy 10. I had a special activity planned that I was going to buy her a notebook for anyway, and she’s nuts about dinosaurs. How cute is it??
Anyway, my daughter has been off school all week with the flu. She has been forced to rest and was going out of her mind with boredom. So when this turned up in the mail, it was a relief for her and I. She didn’t want to do my activity, which was more than fine. She had her own ideas…
She snuggled up in bed with her puppy, and drew pictures.
She even went to the trouble of making little dividers for her notebook.
Missy 10 and I want to thank Mooo for such a cute notebook! You can win a $50 voucher to shop at Mooo (excluding postage). They sell so many utterly cute things, I could have quite the shopping spree there. They have personalised lunch bags, wall stickers, stationery, clothing, so many things.
So if you’d like to be in the running to win, we need you to visit Mooo and come back here to tell us what you would like to spend the voucher on if you were to win. The rules are:
Mandatory entry:
- Visit Mooo, and leave your comment here.
Optional entries:
- Tweet this competition (will need to tell me you’ve done this in comments, please)
- Like this competition on facebook (will also need to let me know you’ve done this in comments)
- Give this post a thumbs up on Stumble Upon (….and let me know in comments)
And that’s it!
So again, thank you for being my reader. This blog would be nothing without you. Lots of love xxx
Edited to add that the closing date is Thursday, 11th of November.
It’s time to announce the winner of the Microsoft Office Home and Business 2010 giveaway.
*Drumroll…*
It’s Nell, with the following comment:
I like the look of the Outlook and the idea on OneNote. And did I read that you can access Word and Excel online as well? Brilliant!
Congratulations, Nell, I hope you enjoy making life more organised! I’ll be contacting you very soon.
