My Very First Vlog and a Contest To Boot...


I've decided to do my very first vlog, in an effort to inspire my awesome group of CP's to do the same!  I want to see their beautiful faces, while hearing their voices at the same time…what is this crazy concept?


So I've devised a plan of attack.  I'm doing my vlog with a contest attached!  The contest is this; I've purchased a total of 17 books at one of my favorite discount stores, and the only thing that you (yes you) have to do, is guess how much I actually spent on them.  The person that is closet to the actual amount will receive a book purchased by yours truly….pretty awesome right? Just leave your guess in the comments below!


And to add to the awesomeness, I'm also going to give you a couple of hints (because I'm cool like that)

1. What I would have spent on the books - $231.84


2. A picture of the books


3. A list of the books and authors, and because I'm SUPER nice, their retail price.


Now come on, I'm practically trying to let you win!

  1. Great idea for a contest! I am never doing a vlog, by the way. Not happening. But I'll guess $37. Which is ridiculously low and you probably even spent less. But that's my guess.
