review & giveaway :: cafepress!

Posted on | March 8, 2010 | 196 Comments

this giveaway has ended! the winner is number 15, Tiffany!

i’m not even gonna front. i love getting emails offering products to give away to my readers. especially when the rep for the company takes the time to actually read my blog. i received an email last week from CafePress and the suggestion of getting Harper a tee with a bicycle on it made me smile.

sure, people in public won’t get it. but it’s so very HER and all of you get it. it’s like a tiny joke we’re all in together, and Harper wrote it herself (literally). the onesie i chose (which i SWEAR arrived the DAY after i picked it – crazy fast shipping these people) is a soft american apparel short sleever and looks adorable. (evidence below)

i chose one for myself (i spit out my coffee when i saw it, so it meant i HAD to have it). this either makes me awesome, or a whole new level of nerdy. i think both?

if you’re ever in need of a quick gift (and um, who isn’t?), CafePress is perfect for personalized gifts, for any interest, topic or brand.

the awesome people at CafePress have offered a rad giveaway for the readers of the Haps. one adult tee of their choice and one onesie/kids tee of their choice! have you SEEN how many choices there are people? it’s insane. the winner will have their work cut out for them because you could literally spend hours on there (NOT that i would know…).

so to enter to win a tee for you and your kid (or a kiddo you love but isn’t yours), please leave a comment on this post.

for additional entries, do the following and come back and leave another comment for each. (that part is super important so each comment counts as an entry):

the winner will be chosen at random using random.org. entries will be accepted through this Thursday, March 11th at midnight PST. winner will be chosen and announced Friday, March 12th.

good luck you guys!

CafePress sent me these tees at no charge in exchange for review. no monetary compensation was received for this review.

    I love the bicycle onesie. I also think the word “onesie” needs to be added to spell checkers.

    That onesie should be called “The Harper”!! I am not sure if I can enter the contest bc I am also doing a cafepress giveaway, so if I win (which I won’t bc I never ever in the history of my entire life win anything), I’ll give it to someone.
