this may seem a tad-bit unoriginal.
but i kept racking and racking my brain for what i would want if i won a giveaway.
would i want someone else's favorite book?
or CD?
or their favorite lip gloss?
or an elmo dvd??
well.
let's be honest.
we'd all happily take anything that is free.
suddenly, when it's free, it has so much more appeal than when it wasn't free.
but--
i reeeaaallyy wanted to thank YOU.
{you can be defined any or all of the following:
my followers.
my readers.
my internet bff's.
my blogging peeps.}
so, without further adieu, i present:
my fabulous friday giftcard giveaway extravaganza
one $10 giftcard to Barnes & Noble (because all i want to do these days is lock myself in my room and read the minutes, hours, and days away).
and last but not least:
one $10 giftcard to Nordstrom (this is my mecca....where i could drop thousands on anything from make-up to jewelry to my personal favorite: shoes).
i hope you're as excited about this giveaway as i am!

brookemshaw@gmail.com
I've been following you for a long, long time sister!! Who wouldn't? You are just so cute. :)
On Friday nights, I like to try and have my kids in bed early so I can sit on the sofa, snuggle with Mat, and watch something...anything! Usually Dateline or a Red Box movie. Funny how the silliest things can be so much fun when you're sitting next to the one you love! :)
Marcia you are probably the coolest person I know!
j.tarbet@aggiemail.usu.edu
of course I am a follower! I don't make a good groupie because I'm a mom and I'm pretty sure I'm passed my prime so I am now a follower.
j.tarbet@aggiemail.usu.edu
Friday nights...friday nights... are those different than the other nights of the week? Actually I have to admit we go out to eat pretty much every friday night. I also love to go to Lowes!!!
j.tarbet@aggiemail.usu.edu
Of course I have to enter this. Marc, you are super cute! Thanks for doing this, it's fun! :)
Yah, and I just became a follower. :)
I forgot to put my email...
annevernon@gmail.com
hope I get picked. :)
And I might as well just tell you what I do on a Friday night...
It depends if my hubby gets a sitter or not. I hate doing that because we have 1 YW in our ward...yah...1. So, it's a little hard.
Anyway...on the nights we go out we usually do the dinner and a movie. We need to get more creative.
But, last night we took the kiddos swimming. :)
So it's Amber.. and my email is amber.jenks@hotmail.com :)
and me, myself, Amber, I already follow your blog because it's amazing! :)
amber.jenks@hotmail.com
Again.. it's Amber @ amber.jenks@hotmail.com :) and on Friday nights I love to spend time home with my cute hubby, eating some dinner, going on a walk, playing with our cute new baby Ezra and every other weekend playing princess with my cute step-daughter Addie. But mostly.. enjoying my night with my family no matter what we do. :)
Hey Marci, I love your blog! My email is andifitzgerald@gmail.com.
I'm going to do all three entries. I follow your blog. :)
My favorite thing to do on a Friday night is cuddle up to a movie with my husband and get twist cones or go out to eat. Movie night became a lot more common once we had a baby, but it's nice to just hang out and relax. My email is andifitgerald@gmail.com.
Hi my name is Julianne. my email address is juju.ricketts@gmail.com :)
I'm already a follower ;) LOVE LOVE LOVE YOU!
My favorite thing to do on a friday night? Well when things work out how they are supposed to, I love to hang out with this cool couple, the Chapmans. But they recently moved far far away so that can't happen anymore. So now I guess I like to get take out and a red box movie and snuggle three babies and a good lookin man, Brack :) Nothing better!
Yay for the giveaway! You are adorable. I know I've already won one, but hey I'm your faithful reader.
And again... my email: candace.lish{at}comcast.net. friday night: fire in the canyon with smores and good friends. :)

Friday nights aren't too exciting lately. We usually grab something to eat then come home and watch 2 of our favorite shows, Monk and Psych. I think that makes a fun night!
I follow Marci - go me! My email is amberwaves_grain@yahoo.com
On Fridays we go out on dates; regardless of whether or not we have money. A dollar movie or a walk around Liberty Park - talking to my Ben makes the rest of the week worth it. This last week we totally splurged and ate at Faustina's downtown. A-MAZ-ING.
Can I say I am a follower without entering the drawing! ? hahaha. Those are some cool giveaways.
How fun. I will be excited to congratulate the winner. These days I am excited to give away my excess of a lifetime! Moving is such a hard thing!
danipezely@gmail.com... what a fun thing to do, thanks!
I'm a follower now... wasn't on the list before but frequently checked in... no worries, now I'm officially a follower. dpezely@gmail.com
Well, my favorite thing to do on a Friday night... is hopefully I'm not working (I work til 10 a lot of Fridays)... I love to be home in time to actually make and eat a dinner with Brandon, watch the office on hulu (since we miss it Thursdays) and go get an ice cream treat from Ritas or Coldstone... and I love when I know I get to sleep in the next day.
Simple but my favorite.
Sweet! I love giveaway's! :)

Hmm... Friday nights.... Pretty much anything that's with Deke! He's a pretty fun guy. BUT, if I have to narrow it down I would say a good ole' bonfire with some mallows and a symphony chocolate bar. Friday perfection.

Ok this is sweet I am so excited to play this fun game. Marci, you are a hot commodity. Look at all of these people who read your blog! I think I was just supposed to leave my name and e-mail for this first one. I'm Celeste and Jon's right here. Does that mean we get double the chance of winning? heeheheehee
you can catch us at celesteleigh@gmail.com or jmhc_crew@hotmail.com : )
Hey Marci, its the Millers again. I'm actually wondering why we're weren't already followers. Don't worry we already stalked your blog religiously, but now its official! :)
Here's our typical Friday night. I get home, change into something ridiculously comfortable and most likely equally frumpy.
Jon asks, "What do you want to do tonight?"
I say, "I don't know. You?"
Jon comes up with a million fun and exciting things to do. I probably reply something like, "Okay, perfect-- but first I need to stalk Marci's blog." After a few minutes of catching up with your life and hitting up a few other blogs we decide to begin our adventures for the evening.
Unfortunately, our ambition usually dies about at this point so we do the same old thing. Get some take out, pull out the games, turn on some tunes for a dance party, and snuggle up on the couch just to fall asleep half way through a RedBox flick. Yup, married life is a party!
HOLY COW!!!!!! 77 comments? Now 78??? I feel so little in this competition. What to do to stand out?
First-I AM a follower. Not only on your blog.. but in life and spirit. I've always been a follower of you Marci.. it's a little challenging now that you are several hundred miles away. Nonetheless, following is the least of my obsessions with you! (creepy little grin)
Second-my email is tiffanyj18@hotmail.com
(but you already knew that)
Third-Friday nights.. lately, I have been obsessed with a bowl of popcorn, some ice cream and a little 'Alias'. Jennifer Garner never lets me down. But I do love a good ol' date with Mr. Johnson. Just wish it happened more often.
Love ya!
I am now a follower. This is you blog buddie Rach.
r_dunston@hotmail.com
Yay for free stuff.
I totally copied you.
My favorite thing to do on a Friday night is shop online eat Bajio and drink Diet Coke. I am an addict. There needs to be a DCAA (Diet Coke Addicts Anon.)
Love,
Rach
Such a cute blog!
By the way, you look a little like my Aunt Julie (also your dad's Aunt Julie) in your recent pictures. Go Leishman!
My email is shawnnicoletucker at yahoo dot com.

You are so cute doing this!
I actually already am a follower of your fun blog! Extra points for me! :)
I want to be in the contest!
My Friday nights are spent hanging with friends, going on dates and living the single life! Nothing too exciting but I can't wait for Friday's every week since I only work until 12:15! Yahoo for only working 1/2 days on Friday!
I like to watch the Ghost Whisperer on friday nights. I should be going out on Friday nights, but no guy has asked so Ghost whisperer it is. oh and this is alesa shelby and my email is a l s h e 2003 (at) yahoo (dot)com
Marci you never cease to amaze and entertain me. You can reach me at er.wallace(at)gmail.com
I don't have a blog, but I do quarterly (or monthly) blog stalk. I still love the popped button story.
Well Friday night I like to Chill with Jared after a long week of work and school. Hulu is our best friend.
