UPDATES TO THE CONTEST LISTED BEFORE THIS POST ENDS 
THIS IS A STICKY POST
It’s been a year already since I started this blog and boy I’m excited! Why, don’t scroll down yet! LOL. Read the post first until you reach the prizes. Then, scroll down some more for the tasks hehehe. Please bear with me on this, we’ve got awful lot of prizes so at least be patient
Anyway, as the saying goes, “better late than never”. So, it means Samut-Sari is still allowed to celebrate and yes, with a big bang! Crossing my fingers here people, though I wasn’t able to get that many sponsors, hope you’d appreciate the prizes, so at least this would entice you to join. Don’t worry, for those who joined my first ever giveaway, this would be a breeze coz I’m using the now famous Rafflecopter. Yebah!
First, here are the sponsors you need to include in your posts. All must be DoFollow and complete. Please do not delete your blog posts or make them as NoFollow after some time has passed. We really worked so hard to make this contest successful and the recognition, backlinks and yes, let’s not forget, possible sales are all we want from you.
Thank you to our sponsors!

Alrighty then, let’s get on with the contest proper.. Ooops, wait, how can I lure you into joining if I haven’t shown you the prizes yet? hehehe..
Here are the photos of some of the prizes in no particular order :
Guys can join too! You can give these gifts to your wives, mothers, sisters, girlfriends, heck, to any women you think deserves these gifts!
Note: 2 winners for these beauty items
Manila Bay Cruise Dine and Unwind by Pakyaw.com.ph and Sun Cruises
Note: 2 vouchers for 1 winner.
The rest of the prizes, I’ll have to wait for their deliveries, then I’ll take pics. The vouchers, I’m still waiting for the confirmations from the companies where I bought some of the prizes here. If they’ll allow me to post the corresponding photos, you’ll see it (hehehe) and if not, you just have to trust me on this. Okies?
UPDATE 10/26/11 1:22AM
In rushing to post the contest coupled with excitement, I forgot to post here the mechanics for the Main Raffle, though, it’s in the T&C after the Rafflecopter. Also, best if I write it here to be sure and avoid further confusions later on. Anyway, here goes.
These are mandatory:Main Task Mechanics. Please read the updates below the post.
- Like this blog post.
- Like the sponsors FB Pages
- Post the contest on your FB Wall. See the instruction in the Rafflecopter (RC) widget
- Follow the sponsors in Twitter
- Tweet the Giveaway. See the instruction in the Rafflecopter (RC) widget
- Follow sponsors on Google Friend Connect
- Subscribe via email
OPTIONAL TASKS
- Tweet and FB Post once a day
- If you wanna have a chance to win one of the Comment Prizes, then leave a Blog Post Comment on any of the sponsors blogs. Full instructions below.
- Make a blog post. Link “Samut-Sari” to the contest page url. Include the sponsors above in your blog posts. ( Please read updates below the post)
To avoid chaos regarding the prizes, please read below:
PRIZES FOR THE MAIN RAFFLE DRAW ARE:
- Diamond Peel + Vit. C Infusion (Valued at Php2450) from Samut-Sari
- Pure Beauty Line Set (body lotion, body scrub, body butter, hand lotion) from Earthling Gorgeous
- Mary Kay Satin Hands Cream from Shop Till You Drop
- Háyden Kho Pèrfume from Earthling Gorgeous
- Enna Furano Top from Circles and Dots
- Mommy Statement Shirt by Glamma Momma
- Mary Kay Sunburst Lipstick from Shop Till You Drop
- Bath & Body Works Antibacterial Hand Soap from What’s Up?!
- Multiply Ladies Shirt from Make Money Online
There are 9 prizes above, therefore 9 winners. First one to be drawn wins the first prize and so on. In case, winners of the vouchers are not from NCR, an equivalent amount in Philippine Peso (PHP) will be sent to your Paypal accounts.
BLOG POST MECHANICS:
- BLOG POST IS NO LONGER MANDATORY
- If you post and link this contest on your blogs, your entry will be included in the raffle for a chance to win $20 via Paypal.
- There will be a separate raffle for this. Now, you have 3 chances of winning
Now let’s go to the OPTIONAL COMMENTING TASK:
Comment in any of the sponsors’ blogs below provided you will not spam nor post irrelevant topics. Try to at least post a 2 liner sensible comment. If your comments are accidentally caught by their spam guards or not approved, please don’t be mad Time frame for the blog posts you can comment on is from September 1st, 2011 to November 30th, 2011.
Samut-Sari
One Proud Momma
Make Money Online
Foodies Galore
Earn Dollars Pinoy!
Filipino Virtual Assistant
What’s Up?!
Chizmiz to the Max
The Gimikera
There are prizes for those who garnered the most valid comments. So here’s the thing:
- Comment using ONLY 1 NAME
- There will be a separate raffle of entries using The Hat.
- You can win 2x.
- Let’s say your name won a prize from the Main Raffle AND you are one of the top 5 commenters, then you get 2 prizes.
I’m doing this to make up for the mistake I did on my first giveaway. So please don’t hate me Besides, commenting needs time and effort, so, it’s only proper to give you additional gifts
PRIZES FOR THE COMMENTING PART OF THE GIVEAWAY:
- 1st PRIZE – Manila Bay Cruise, dine and unwind for 2pax from The Gimikera (Valued at P1100)
- 2ND PRIZE – Foot Spa + Reflexology Treatment (Valued at Php400) from One Proud Momma
- 3RD PRIZE – HP Jacket from Earn Dollars Pinoy!
- 4th PRIZE – Leaves Furano Top from Circles and Dots
- 5th PRIZE – Mommylicious Shirt by Shopping Spells
Again, in case winners of the vouchers are not from NCR, an equivalent amount in Philippine Peso (PHP) will be sent to your Paypal accounts.
I think it would be easier if you will create your own notepads or spread sheets. I’ll just get all those after the contest. At least this way, you still have time to check those approved. Please get the exact permalinks or if none, the date and the title of the blog posts. BUT, just wanna clear, that the deadline of submission of comment entries is December 2nd,2011. I will give you until 12mn of December 2nd, Philippine time. At 12:01am and beyond, I will no longer accept any more follow up entries. Copy?
The Last NOTE:
- Giveaway runs from October 24th to November 30,2011, EST.
- Winners for the Main Raffle will be announced on December 4th,2011 – Philippine time.
- Winners for the Commenting Task will be announced on December 10th, 2011 – Philippine time.
Open for Philippine Residents only. Open to all Pinoys worldwide. See updates below for a wider scope.
- Products will be shipped, vouchers will be emailed or equivalent money sent to your Paypal accounts.
This post may be updated from time to time.
UPDATE 10/25/11 – Already 3 people emailed me if they can join the contest though they’re not in the Phils (they are Pinoys) but have a local valid resident address. Yes! You can join.
NOTE: If you guys/girls win, same process will be followed. Products will be shipped to your local address, vouchers emailed – though you can’t use it unless you’re in the country and in Manila or you give it away. Same thing with the Paypal money. Just to make things more clearer.
UPDATE 10/27/11 – Reminder joiners, though you can submit other tasks, it doesn’t mean you’re in. You MUST submit all mandatory tasks including the BLOG POST to be entered in the Main Raffle Contest. You can skip doing the blog post and start the liking, following and subscribing, but you need to go back to submit in the Rafflecopter your blog post url. Any questions, please tell me thru the contact form. Thanks!
UPDATE 10/27/11 – Gee, just a few hours after I posted the update above, 8 people contacted me that they really wanna join (some have already joined) BUT they don’t have blogs. I know that I already said that blog posts are mandatory, but since, several people (non-bloggers) already exerted effort in doing the rest of the tasks, therefore, BLOG POST IS NO LONGER MANDATORY.
For those who have submitted their blog posts already and for some of you who are willing to post it, I have a separate prize for you peeps. I will raffle off USD$20 as a thank you gift! So, keep it coming!
Update 11/02/02 – When you’re done, you may wanna join another contest sponsored by my other blog Foodies Galore. It’s easy, just LIKE the sponsors and you have a chance to win $50 VIA Paypal! THIS IS A 1 DAY CONTEST ONLY! “Giveaway runs from Wednesday, November 2nd, 12:01am EST to November 2nd, 11:59pm EST (November 2nd, 12:01pm to November 3rd, 11:59am Philippine time).”
Please go to the contest page HERE. Thanks!
Alrighty then, let’s put those fingers and your computer mouse busy clicking and typing! Enjoy peeps!
